Greetings, Graham Perks! > Steps:
> - Install Windows 7 x64, with VS2008 + SP1. > - Install WiX 3.5 (Windows Installer builder), from > http://wix.codeplex.com/releases/view/60102; Wix35.msi. > - Install cygwin base. > - Add C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Installer XML v3.5\bin to your PATH > (via Control Panel) Do note that this doesn't tell us a thing about exact steps performed. Did you added that to system or user variables? Before or after Cygwin's own /bin? > - Open Cygwin Terminal > - Type 'candle' - terminal hangs. Apparently no new processes are kicked > off, per Task Manager. > With an older cygwin (I had 1.7.9(0.237/5/3) 2011-03-29 available), and > candle.exe runs correctly, showing the available command options. > I've tried working around this by executing 'cmd /c candle.exe ...' but > wind up with the same result, a hang. > Any ideas on workarounds or fixes? %Cygwin%/bin MUST be first in PATH. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 07.07.2012, <20:42> Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
