This seems to happen to me, when I use mutt to send mail. Sendmail does not
get startet.
But here there is no SYSTEM acount involved. I tested under the same
account as I
installed Cygwin.
Under exact the same configuration of Cygwin under XP there is no problem.
Is this
problem solvable, will it be solved soon?

I think the same problem could arise on Windows XP with the upcoming
service pack.

Gert de Boer

A colleague at work is having some problems that are starting to look

I note that the FAQ at http://cygwin.com/faq.html says that Cygwin has
no automatic uninstall facility.  Since setup lets you choose to
uninstall, is that an error in the FAQ, or have I misunderstood setup's
uninstall option?

No, you misunderstood the FAQ. With setup.exe you can uninstall
individual packages but not Cygwin. To uninstall Cygwin you have to:
first kill all running cygwin programs and services.
  killall script in distro and automatic detection of cygwin services
  still pending.
  use e.g. pskill or procexp from www.sysinternals.com
  and net stop  or cygrunsrv --remove 
rmdir /s /q C:\cygwin

you have no permissions.

  Compile your code with -g and run it using gdb/insight.  When you find the
bug, fix it.

start debugging the sshd with -ddd. Keep in mind, it serves only one session, if 
started that way and look into /var/log/sshd.log and into the eventviewer. I bet that

Again, in regards to the followup Igor posted, I'm going to ask you to try this:

chown SYSTEM:SYSTEM /etc/ssh_host_*
chmod go-wrx /etc/ssh_host_*


If you have set up a root user and group, it might be better to chown SYSTEM:root

Bug fix to /proc/cpuinfo implementation

[Tomas Ukkonen]

Hi

I hope I email to correct mailing list...

It seems that '/proc/cpuinfo' doesn't report 3dnow and 3dnowext support
correctly.

Because I had been using it for recognizing processor features I looked
briefly into fhandler_proc.cc (taken freshly from cvs) and I think I
fixed the problem. The changed file compiles and *should* correctly
detect presence of 3dnow instruction support (by using AMD's 0x8000..1
extended function). I haven't have time to test it (= figure out how
build+install process actually works) because I decided to write my own
cpuid detection routines from scratch instead.

Patch is under whatever license needed to make it possible to use it.

Thanks for cygwin people for doing good job and bringing unix to
windows.

Something is very wrong, perhaps with your passwd and group
files. This is what the output should look like:

Output from d:\cygwin\bin\id.exe (nontsec)
UID: 11054(PHumblet) GID: 12655(Clearusers)
12655(Clearusers)

What does "id" print?

You might be right.  The key is for someone seeing the problem to look 
into it or at least to provide some detailed information of the problem.
I recommend looking at  as a starting 
point for anyone interested in pursuing this.

Everyone seems to treat setup.exe as if it was a mysterious entity doing
obscure things.  It isn't.

The download part aside, all it does is unpack and install files (tar),
manipulate the mount table (mount), and run post-install scripts (bash).
If you want to just clone the same setup everywhere, all you should need
is tar, cygwin and mount.

0) (Assuming that an 'n:' drive is available on the server)

1) create tar.bz2 file of reference installation.  Put it on a server.

   c:\>tar cjf /cygdrive/n/stuff.tar.bz2 cygwin/bin cygwin/etc cygwin/lib whatever

2) create a "stage" directory on server and copy tar.exe, cygwin1.dll,
   and bzip2 to it.

c:\>mkdir n:\stage
c:\>copy bin\tar.exe bin\cygwin1.dll bin\bzip2.exe n:\stage

3) mount -m > n:\stage\mount.bat

4) To clone on another computer:

   c:\>set PATH=n:\stage;%PATH%
   c:\>tar xjf n:\stuff.tar.bz2
   c:\>n:\stage\mount.bat

To the extent I could follow that thread in the email archives, it
looks like you solved your cron problem but not the mail problem.
The cron problem was permissions related, since it used the SYSTEM
account which has fewer permissions by default on W2K3.  Your mail
problem isn't the same issue, since SYSTEM is not involved.  You 
could send the strace file along to the list if it's not too big
but unless it's clear where there's a problem just by looking at
it, I certainly won't be able to help that much.  I don't have W2K3
Server (or any Server) so I can't really debug this.  Did you try 
Mark Bohlman's suggestion?

I am afraid the strace file is really huge, I would not send it in a mail.

I did look at Mark Bohlman's suggestions, but I could not find anything
wrong.

The funny thing from the strace file is, that there is no reference at all
to the ssmtp program: it seems not even to try start it up. I also did a
strace on XP, and there I can see that ssmtp is called, and eventually
successfully started.

For the rest: I tested it with all the rights I could find,
as a local administrator. No luck...

...and bzip2.exe, of course, and anything else I forgot.

I forgot to put in a disclaimer.  There may be pieces missing from the
steps below but this is not rocket surgery.  Maybe the only tricky part
is the "mount -m" command, which coincidentally enough was designed
just for a scenario like this.

rebaseall - was RE: cygwin installer

[Jan Schormann]

Hi,

> > If you want to just clone the same setup everywhere, all
> > you should need is tar, cygwin and mount.

I'm replicating a Cygwin installation to about 100 developer
machines here. The tar approach is cute, but slow.

I'm using robocopy, part of the "Windows 2000 Resource Kit",
to mirror the trees. Robocopy is very fast when there's nothing
to do, much faster than rsync, for example.

But: The rebase-problem still beats me. If I "rebaseall" in the
"reference installation" and than copy that to another machine,
nothing works. Rebasing again on the other machine doesn't help,
either. So I'm keeping a non-rebased copy as "reference
installation"
and "rebaseall" on the workstations ...

Any ideas?

BTW - Thanks for a great product!(tm)

Cheers,
Jan.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: CMake-2.0.2-1

[William A. Hoffman]

CMake 2.0.2-1 is now available on Cygwin mirrors.

There has been a new release of the official cmake (2.0.2-1).
This is a major release from 1.8.3 to 2.0.2.

Changes in CMake 2.0.2:

- Remove automatic -I for source directory with makefile generator.
  Problems caused by this can be fixed with this command:
  INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}).
  Or, you can set the CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY to 1.8.

- Fixed parsing of unquoted arguments to allow double-quotes within the
  argument.
 
- Add a STREQUAL to the IF command.

- Modules/FindFLTK.cmake: look for both Fl.h or Fl.H.

- Fix compound IF crash on unix. BUG id 917.

- Fix path problem with sub projects and IDE workspace files.
 
- Add a FindKDE module.

- Modules/FindFLTK.cmake: fix for bug 915

- BUG#891: When building CMake itself, use the new cmake to install so 
  that the current cmake can be overwritten.

- BUG: Files in top-level directory of source tree were not reported in updates log 
  for ctest.

- Fix find library so it does not find directories.



Changes in CMake 2.0.1:

- Platform independent Install (no more install-sh); supports pre install, post 
install, manifest, destdir...; faster and it works on Windows 

- Add support for SWIG

- Optional support for relative paths

- INCLUDE and FIND_PACKAGE both check CMAKE_MODULE_PATH 

- IF command supports better expression support, like IF(A AND B AND C)

- IF command now has a numeric EQUAL test

- MACRO's now support variable arguments

- FOREACH supports a RANGE of values genertor

- CMake supports an automatic pre-load cmake file in the source tree of a project.

- GET_TARGET_PROPERTY can give you the build location of a target.

- Loaded commands have a crash signal handler to detect crashes not caused by cmake.

- GET/SET_DIRECTORY_PROPERTY/PROPERTIES commands so that we can change include 
directories
  and get all sorts of things. 

- VEBOSE build option for visual studio IDE generators.

- FIND_LIBRARY and FIND_PATH now look in CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH and CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
  environment variables in addition to and before the PATH environment variable.

RE: Debugging help with cygwin1!_alloca ()

[Raul Lopez]

I guess I asked the wrong question:
Can anyone provide info on how to debug the following:
SIGSEGV, Segmentation Fault in cygwin1!_alloca () from /usr/bin/cygwin1.dll
My code starts to run and then dies with this message. Any help would be 
greatly appreciated...
I did compile the code with -g and used gdb, however I haven't been able to 
find the bug, I can see where the code stops running, but so far every 
variable seems to be ok.. Any suggestions on what can cause problems with 
cygwin1!_alloca () ?

Thanks.

ncftp 3.1.7 terminal problem

[Nic Watson]

I just upgraded (via cygwin setup) ncftp 3.1.4-1 to ncftp 3.1.7-1. 
Ncftp has a nice color menu interface for bookmarks.  It no longer works 
in 3.1.7 on cygwin.  When I type "bookmarks" at the ncftp prompt, it 
prints out:

WARNING: terminal is not fully functional
Missing filename ("/bin/more -\?" for help)
When I reinstalled 3.1.4-1, it worked again, so it doesn't seem that I 
installed something else that broke it.

Keep up the good work.

 Once that is done, there are a bunch of ways you can use it, ranging 
from a simple DOS batch file to run setup.exe with the right flags, to 
using one of the various Windows installer tools to pack the whole mess 
up into a single EXE file and run setup.exe with the right flags.

Beware that if you're going to distribute binaries in this way, you will 
also have to distribute the corresponding sources.

Thanks for the patch.  I've applied it.  However...

...it's a border case in terms of licensing.  In theory it's a bit too
big to fit into the "trivial patch" rule but since its functionality
is pretty simple, I turned a blind eye to the size.

For the future, if you want to submit more patches, please have a start
by reading http://cygwin.com/contrib.html.  It contains all information
you need as a contributor.  Signing the assignment form is (unfortunately)
most important.


Thanks again for the patch,

Not just a proposal, but patches:

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-02/msg00261.html

To my knowledge, they were never applied, because the maintainers
apparently have no desire to make Cygwin suitable for non-toy
deployments.

  Ah.  Well, the way that would go wrong would be if you'd trashed your
stack in someway with a stray pointer or by overflowing an automatic array
variable.

  However, we don't actually know whether your code was in alloca or not,
because you're presumably running with an ordinary version of the cygwin
dll, and that won't have any debugging info in it.  In that case, _alloca is
merely the nearest symbol to the eip at the point when the SEGV occurs.

  Does your code invoke alloca?

Actually nearly all of the processor feature flags are wrong for AMD
processors. This is a known bug. Your patch looks to be going about the
right way to fix it. I'll try to add the rest of the AMD flags in.

I'd be really surprised if it were something that could be solved by 
running as just some other user (including local administrator).  I'll
wager you'll need to rebuild mutt as debug and look at it in gdb.

Nobody announced any plans to this effect on this list, AFAIK, but feel
free to submit patches.  See  for
instructions on getting started.

FWIW, a useful functionality extension that goes along with REG_BINARY is
allowing regtool to read the data from file or stdin.

setup reget

[Elvin Peterson]

Hello,
  The Cygwin setup program setup.exe does not seem to
handle partial downloads of files.  I have downloads
interrupted in the middle of a large package like
X11-fonts and the next time it starts from scratch. 
Is this behavior expected?  Or is it just a bug in my
install?  Since almost all web and ftp servers support
the REGET option shouldn't it be the default?

TIA.

Can you attach the output of cygcheck -svr > cygcheck.out as described in 
http://cygwin.com/problems.html , and also tell us which Windows you are using?
If it's NT-based (NT, 2k, XP and 2k3), the filesystem would also be useful.

Try selecting "Use IE5 settings" instead of "Direct Connection".  I'm
not sure it will matter but I think if you do it that way it will use
the IE methods instead of the built-in ones for downloading, which may
support resuming.

I wouldn't - folks appear to have enough difficulties as it is without
adding ways 'around' setup.exe (I know, for the power/advanced user it
is a technique, but...).

There's also the little problems like ensuring that
postinstall/preremove/postremove scripts are run correctly...

It looks like it's already in the June 23 snapshot.

Inactive or unsupported "-E" option on echo

[Patrick Samson]

I got confused by the options supported in echo:

$ /bin/echo --help
Usage: /bin/echo [OPTION]... [STRING]...
Echo the STRING(s) to standard output.

  -n  do not output the trailing newline
  -e  enable interpretation of the
backslash-escaped characters
listed below
  -E  disable interpretation of those
sequences in STRINGs
  ^^^
$ /bin/echo -E toto
-E toto

However, with the bash built-in version:
$ echo -E toto
toto

In both versions, default is to not interpret
the backslash (#define V9_DEFAULT is commented out
in sh-utils/src/echo.c).
But the -E option is valid (recognized) in the
built-in version, not in the exe version.

There is likely nothing to do, on the cygwin side.
It's only a pity that the usage message does not
vary in accordance with the #define as the supported
options and behaviour do.

JOE+Cygwin+WinXPpro+NTFS=no compression

[Jeff]

One never knows what's going to happen when software package features
interact. :( I'm running the latest Cygwin (1.5.10-3) on Windows XP
Pro. My HDD is formatted NTFS, with compression enabled-- that is to
say, compression is enabled for the drive, with the attribute set to be
inheritable to all directories and files created or modified on it
(it's sort-of like umask on POSIX).

I am happy to say that Joseph Allen, creator of JOE (Joe's Own Editor),
is once again developing his editor (get it at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/joe-editor/). Ver. 3.1 has recently
been released, and includes many new features. One of the unexpected
ones, however, is that it turns off the compression attribute on my
system, on any file it saves or modifies. No other Cygwin (nor any
other Windows) app does this, and no previous version of JOE (2.9.8 and
earlier) that I have built and run under this or any previous version
of Cygwin does it either. I have no clue where to even begin looking
for a solution (but I've posted this request to one of the joe-editor
boards at Sourceforge, as well). Yes, I know that it's only a nuisance
and not critical, but still..

VBScript shebang?

[SJ]

Hello,
From time to time, I like use a Windows script file (VBS, JS) with 
CScript/WSH. Is it possible to execute a script as a command from the 
Cygwin shell without having to specify the 'interpreter' (CScript)? This 
would then operate like a Perl or BASH script.

I've tried using a 'shebang' approach like "#!cscript" but the 
CScript interpreter chokes. If I comment the shebang I get an error from 
the shell.

Thanks
Simon

Thank you, Pierre. I have immediatetly installed the new cgwin1.dll from
your snapshot on my PC1 and made the following observations:

1. rlogin to PC2 worked fine!

2. now I installed the new cygwin1.dll also on PC2 and tried again: rlogin
from PC1 to PC2 or vice versa. Unfortunately, now we seem to have problems
on the receiver side: the rlogin fails and an ugly Windows error message (in
my case in German) comes up with a content like "Application not valid ...".
The output of "inetd -d" does not show any errors.

What's up now? Sorry for the inconvenience!

Ulrich

You need to make sure the interpreter gets the Win32 path to its argument,
not POSIX.  Search the archives for "ActivePerl shebang".

I take that back-- it IS doing it on JOE 2.9.8. I haven't noticed yet
if any other Cygwin apps are resetting NTFS file attributes.

What happens when you rlogin from PC1 to PC1? That was my test and it
worked.
It's unlikely that the latest patch is causing the problem you see,
but of course there have been several changes since the last official
release.

gcc install problem

[Peter Wisnovsky]

I'm trying to install gcc on my system so I can build the id-utils.

I run the setup program from the web site, pick a mirror, check "Devel/gcc".
Some other things get pulled in. I hit Next.

The .bz files are downloaded to my package dirs, and it says "Download
Complete". Yay! But the binaries don't get installed. Wah!

I try again: again, gcc is not checked (!), but it finds the cached files,
says download complete, doesn't install any binary.

I've tried this with a couple of mirrors with no luck. Am I missing
something?

What Chris suggests will work now, and for the foreseeable future. It
preserves all setup.exe's tracking data, so setup.exe runs, and
postinstall scripts will be preserved.

There are a few missing gotchas - 
ssh host keys need to be regenerated
services installed with cygrunsrv need to be reinstalled
/etc/password may need to be updated depending on the windows
authentication layout

but they are all fairly simple.

Try selecting "Install from Internet", rather than "Download from
Internet" on the second setup screen.

So, you avoided the option that told setup to install files and just
told setup to just download files to your system.  If you want to
install files you have to use the Install option.

Yes.  Every Korean path works fine now with the snapshot DLL.
(I haven't set any codepage in CYGWIN, as before.)

No problem.

When I rlogin from PC1 to PC1 I have the same Windows error message - which
btw shows an error for "login" -  and a "closed connection" output in the
Cygwin window.
I have now recognized that "rsh PC1 ls" also fails. Again the Windows error
message comes up, now indicating an error of "bash".
