This subject has been raised before in this thread:
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2008-01/msg00579.html
but I cannot find any resolution of the problem.
In my case, I built a Win 2003 Server R2 x64 SP2 virtual machine under xen on
one physical machine and cygwin worked fine. Copying the VM to another
physical machine, with identical dom0 OS / Xen install results in the indicated
failure. Using "bash -livx" the shell immediately exits when it hits the first
test in the login script:
[ ! -d /home/Administrator ]
Removing cygwin and doing a clean install over the internet results in a broken
install (postinstall scripts fail because of broken "["). You can now get a
bash shell, since there is no login script, but without any environment. If
you enter "[ -d /bin ]" the broken shell terminates.
Attached is the output of cygcheck after the clean install on the machine which
does not work.
Any insight into this problem would be greatly appreciated.
