Greetings, All! I'm trying to execute a script that was working fine until recent update. It doesn't crash, just, for some reason, trim the last component of a path.
In a nutshell, the issue is this: $ mkdir "/a b" $ cd "/a b" $ ls -l "$SYSTEMROOT/System32/notepad.exe" (just to confirm that the file actually exists) $ run "$SYSTEMROOT/System32/notepad.exe" Error pops up: --------------------------- Run.exe --------------------------- Error: could not start C:\Programs\CygWin\a b --------------------------- OK --------------------------- $ cygcheck.exe -v run Found: C:\Programs\CygWin\bin\run.exe Found: C:\Programs\CygWin\bin\run.exe C:\Programs\CygWin\bin\run.exe - os=4.0 img=1.0 sys=4.0 C:\Programs\CygWin\bin\cygwin1.dll - os=4.0 img=1.0 sys=4.0 "cygwin1.dll" v0.0 ts=2013-07-15 11:17 C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.0 "KERNEL32.dll" v0.0 ts=2009-03-21 12:36 C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.10 "ntdll.dll" v0.0 ts=2010-12-09 13:38 C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHELL32.DLL - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.10 "SHELL32.dll" v0.0 ts=2012-06-08 14:41 C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.0 "ADVAPI32.dll" v0.0 ts=2009-02-06 11:02 C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.10 "RPCRT4.dll" v0.0 ts=2010-08-13 14:32 C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.dll (recursive) C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\Secur32.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.0 "Secur32.dll" v0.0 ts=2009-06-24 13:10 C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.dll (recursive) C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.10 "GDI32.dll" v0.0 ts=2008-10-22 17:52 C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.0 "USER32.dll" v0.0 ts=2008-04-13 20:22 C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll (recursive) C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcrt.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.0 "msvcrt.dll" v0.0 ts=2008-04-13 17:41 C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\SHLWAPI.dll - os=5.1 img=5.1 sys=4.0 "SHLWAPI.dll" v0.0 ts=2009-12-07 13:39 C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\GDI32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcrt.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll (already done) C:\WINDOWS\system32\USER32.dll (already done) $ cygcheck.exe -f /bin/run.exe run-1.2.0-1 $ cygcheck.exe -c run Cygwin Package Information Package Version Status run 1.2.0-1 OK -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 16.07.2013, <20:12> 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
