Greetings, Sam Townsend! > I've been trying to install Cygwin on a Server 2012 R2 box, but the install > keeps failing. I am using the latest installer (2.850, 32-bit), and I have > tried multiple mirrors.
> Relevant portion of setup.log.full: http://pastebin.ca/2836397 man-db failures on a new install are a known issue. There was some discoveries that might help the situation, once relevant packages are reuploaded, but for now, you can try manually running update command with -dc switch. What to > Creating /etc/fstab.d directory failed. > Please fix that manually. are you running setup as admin? > After the install, I have a broken cygwin. mintty fails to run (it pops up a > window briefly which then disappears). I can run bash, but commands don't > work because $PATH is not set up properly. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@yandex.ru) 28.08.2014, <21:03> 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
