windows services in CygWin

[Emiel Janssen - Van Boxtel Software BV]

hello,

I want to monitor all the processes that are running on Windows 2003 and
CygWin with a script (cobol).
When you use the top command you only see the processes running under
cygwin.
Is it possible to show both CygWin and Windows processes, so i can
monitor them both with a script under CygWin.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: OpenSSH-4.3p2-2

[Corinna Vinschen]

I've just updated the version of OpenSSH to 4.3p2-2.

This version is supposed to fix the "scp -r doesn't copy files" problem
which happens with Cygwin 1.5.19.

More experimental types can also stick with 4.3p2-1 and just update
Cygwin to a recent developer snapshot from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/


To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.

Not with top which utilizes Cygwin's /proc interface which in turn only
has information about Cygwin processes.

Try pslist from www.sysinternals.com.

Emiel,

The subject calls out services, the body talks about processes.
Which is it?

Cobol is a compiled language not a scripting language  Are you looking
for API calls from COBOL or utilities to run from a scripting language?

top is a visual utility.

partition size incorrectly reported

[Roger Fishwick]

Hi,

We have a production system which has had cygwin on for about 2 years with 
no problems on Thursday I tried to add some extra packages and encountered 
a number of problems.  setup.exe would at various deferent points fail due 
to insufficient space (on a disk which widows claimed had 10Gb free) after 
several long days and nights I have an almost working install I did this by:

1. running setup with deinstall.
2. deleting everything I could find that belonged to cygwin.
3. using an ftp client to down load the latest release.
4. running setup to do a full install from the local files.

This appeared to work however cygwin now claims that 2 of the 3 local 
drives are full, it works fine provided you don't need to write to the 
disks:


Bellow is a df -h from cygwin and a psinfo from a dos window.

Anyone any ideas.

Emiel,

Please reply to the list and format so all can benefit/follow along.  I
slightly rearranged so this makes sense on the list.

Ok, so my understanding is you want to run a utility to output process
information to a file and then write a COBOL program to read in this
file and analize it, looking for CPU information.  Perhaps you want to
pipe the information directly from the utility into the COBOL program.
Either way you need a consistent format for analysis.

Your use of the word monitor implies wrapping in a script so this
processing reoccurs at regular intervals.

>From the point-of-view of Windows, Cygwin processes are Windows
processes so using a Windows/DOS utility will view all processes.

Corinna's suggestion to use pslist from www.sysinternals.com is your
utility to output process information.  You can run DOS programs from
Cygwin, so you can redirect the output to a file or a pipe, then run
your COBOL program to do what it wants.  All can be wrapped in a script
using the language of your choice such as Perl, Bash, Sh,...

Looks like you have quotas activated on drive f:

Cygwin can nothing do about that.  Maybe df can by taking quotas into
account.  Eric?

http://cygwin.com/problems.html asks for a plain text attachment of

It looks like cvs is using an older version of gnulib's getaddrinfo.c
replacement module, which until recently has had some bugs when used on
cygwin (I know, because those same compile errors were present in CVS
coreutils, prompting the fixes in gnulib).  As a workaround, you may be
able to just drop in the latest copy of getaddrinfo.[hc] from
http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/gnulib/lib/?root=gnulib.  Otherwise,
ask upstream at the cvs development list for them to pull in newer files
from gnulib and spin cvs 1.12.14.

The display of negative disk usage (64-bit wraparound) is already fixed in
coreutils CVS, and stems from the fact that the OS is reporting more
available than total blocks in statfs/statvfs.  I'm a bit surprised that
it wasn't backported to coreutils 5.94, since the patch was made to CVS
head before 5.94 was released, but oh well (I'll see whether it is easy to
backport myself when I roll coreutils-5.94-5 after cygwin 1.5.20 comes out).

Not really.  SUSv3/POSIX specify df without allowing it to take quotas
into account - so it is really space available on the file system, not
space available to the current user within the file system.  However, you
may want to propose a GNU extension that adds a new option to df which
takes quotas into account; if so, raise the question on the
bug-coreutilsgnuorg mailing list.  But remember that reading disk
quotas isn't very portable, so it may be a difficult task to actually
provide a worthwhile patch along those lines.

Maybe Cygwin can do something about that by never returning more
available than total blocks.  Would that be helpful/desirable/correct,
or sahould we just keep it as it is now?

Hang on... I'm just looking into the output of statvfs on a drive which
has a 1Meg quota for the current user in place.  The values in the
statvfs structure correspond to the return values of GetDiskFreeSpaceEx
like this:

  f_blocks == TotalNumberOfBytes (corresponds to quota)
  f_bfree  == TotalNumberOfFreeBytes (does NOT correspond to quota)
  f_bavail == FreeBytesAvailable (corresponds to quota)

The values returned for the quota challanged drive:

f_bsize  : 4096
f_blocks : 256  (256 * f_bsize) == 1 Meg
f_bfree  : 1339399  (real free blocks of the drive)
f_bavail : 0(blocks free for user under quota lore)

Per standard, f_bavail shows the number of free blocks available to
non-superuser.  However, df seems to use the f_bfree value, which is,
per standard, the number of total blocks free on the drive.  I'm
wondering if df shouldn't rather use f_bavail and f_blocks instead of
f_bfree and f_blocks?!?

What Cygwin could do is to write the FreeBytesAvailable value also into
f_bfree, but I'm wincing at this idea since it would (unnecessarily?)
reduce the information available in the structure.  I'm not actually
convinced this would be a good idea.

I'm still thinking about the best approach here.  Also, right now it seems
that coreutils is preferring statfs over statvfs, even though statvfs is
the standardized interface (it is a known issue recently raised on the
upstream mailing list).

Is it worth adding additional fields to struct statvfs to avoid loss of
information (of course, then those fields are not portable, because they
are not standardized)?  What does Linux do in the presence of user quotas?

You don't find it "in Cygwin".  You find it outside of Cygwin, and then
install the fonts that support the right encoding.

Some Cygwin programs may have localized message files, in which case you
may be able to get Croatian messages from those programs, too.  You'll
need to set LC_ALL to the appropriate locale for this ("hr_HR"? Not sure).

What for?  The necessary information is available using the existing
structure members, and there are already more structure members than
information is available on Windows.  I don't think it's feasible to
add members for this purpose.

FYI, Cygwin's "ps" also supports a "-W" option that lists all Windows

Use a snapshot DLL.  The fix will be in the next release.
Or, if you are willing to track this issue down in cvs and propose a
non-hackish patch, the cvs maintainer will consider it.

Ok, after some mulling over MSDN and other dubious sources of
information, I think I found a way to overcome the problem of active
enforcing quotas.  There's a new DeviceIoControl call which has been
added since Win2K.  It allows to get the size information of a volume
without getting the information filtered through the quota mechanism.
So, with the patch I just applied to Cygwin, you should always get the
real size of a volume, not the crippled size which is a result of your
quota.

Please test the next developers snapshot from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/

This is a bug. The format_proc_partitions assumes that drives are
numbered consecutively - which is not the case if you hot remove a
drive.

I get a different error.  It's  to the tune of "unable to remap

0x18DD."

I think *my* error indicates that I need to remap, but Sam Reckoner's

error is yet another form of the rebase error that I haven't seen yet.

Using uw-imapd over secure 995 with cygwin -- Cant seem to get it working

[Kevin Hilton]

Briefly Im trying to use cygwin's uw-imapd port to attempt to establish
an imap connection over port 995 and 993.  I have successfully run the
daemon over the non-secure port.

Ive created the necessary .key and .pem files and placed them in
etc/ssl/certs.  First of all Im not sure if this is the proper location
for these certificates.

Second I tried starting the uw-imapd over the secure ports via the inetd
by placing the following lines in the inetd.conf file:
pop3s  stream  tcp  nowait  root   /usr/sbin/uw-ipop3d
imaps  stream  tcp  nowait  root   /usr/sbin/uw-imapd

Non secure ports are enabled via
imap  stream  tcp  nowait  root   /usr/sbin/uw-imapd
pop3  stream  tcp  nowait  root   /usr/sbin/uw-ipop3d

After restarting the inetd, and performing a netstat -a, I see the
machine is not listening on port 995 or port 993, however ports 143 and
110 are open and listening.

I must be missing something.  Any help would be appreciated.

cp -rp /cygdrive/c/Cygwin/home/$USER /cygdrive/d/Cygwin/home

Edit /etc/passwd changing $USER's line with the new home (i.e. from /home/$USER
to /cygdrive/d/Cygwin/home/$USER)

_test it_, if it works then you can delete the old home directory.

All this is assuming you haven't changed the cygdrive prefix.  And if you do
change it in the future the new $HOME will not work, you'll have to edit passwd
again.

inetd is an on-demand server, so it's not strange that nothing is listening to
ports 993 and 995, what is strange is that something is listening to ports 110
and 143.

You must have another instance of the server running.

Anyway try a "telnet localhost 993" and see if the server is started.

Unless cp has changed in multiple ways, a better idiom would be

tar -C /home -cf - $USER | tar -C /cygdrive/d/Cygwin/home -xf -

which will preserve symbolic links, etc.  In both cases, any extra ACLs on
the files will be lost.  Also, depending on the text vs. binary mode
settings of /cygdrive and /, there might be issues with that as well.

It may be better to *move* (not copy) the directory using Windows,
instead.

No reason.  Just "mount -fs D:/cygwin/home/$USER /home/$USER", and you
won't have to change anything.

I had to add a #include 

Now at least getaddrinfo.c compiles fine.

[BUG] rename("symlink", "regular_file") has weird results

[Max Bowsher]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Suppose "foo.tmp" is a symlink, and "foo" is a regular file.

Calling rename("foo.tmp", "foo") results in the very bizarre situation
where, as far as Cygwin is concerned, there are TWO files called "foo"
within the same directory.

Below is a small C program to reproduce this state of affairs.

Max.

#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include

#include 

#define M1BAD(x) if ((x) == -1) { handle_error(#x); }

static void handle_error(char *op)
{
fprintf(stderr, "E: %s: %s\n", op, strerror(errno));
exit(1);
}

int main(void)
{
  int fd;

  M1BAD(fd = open("foo", O_CREAT, 0644));

_test it_, if it works then you can delete the old home directory.

All this is assuming you haven't changed the cygdrive prefix.  And if
you do change it in the future the new $HOME will not work, you'll have
to edit passwd again.

snapshots vs. Win9x

[Eric Blake]

I've been running the 20060227 successfully for several days now
on Win98, so I tried upgrading today.  However, something introduced
between 20060227 and 20060301 causes all cygwin processes
to hang on exit; and the situation is not improved all the way
through 20060308.

Also, I noticed that the Changelog for 20060308 mentions
that Corinna touched dcrt0.cc (_dll_crt0), but I don't see
that change anywhere (perhaps an extra log entry leaked
in on this commit:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-cvs/2006-q1/msg00220.html)?

Problems after upgrading to 1.5.19-4

[Timothy King]

Last night, I grabbed an additional package using setup.exe.  It also 
downloaded and installed the latest cygwin1.dll (1.5.19-4) and core utilities.  
I had not updated since early January.  While it was running the post-install 
script, I received serveral errors along the lines of "... could not be found 
in cygwin1.dll".  I rebooted, and now when I run the bash shell, it drops me in 
/usr/bin and I have no Cygwin directories in my path (/bin, /usr/bin).  Also, 
my term colors are now messed up.

I did a diff on the /etc and /home directories which I had backed up, but there 
were no differences in the config files.  I also did not find any other 
cygwin1.dll's on my system. It is interesting to note I have the cygwin sshd 
running on that machine, and when I ssh into it I have no problems with paths 
or term colors.

This is running on Windows XP Pro.  I know my way around Unix but I know little 
about how the Cygwin shell runs on windows.  I tried adding the Cygwin paths in 
my .bashrc, but now it barfs on the spaces in the Windows directory names.

Any help would be appreciated.

Tim

I had this problem a couple of months ago.  My problem was caused by the 
setup.exe being very helpful and (at least for me) defaulting to always 
installing the latest version of anything you already had installed.  And if 
you don't look at the right page, you don't know this is happening.


So normally  I don't exit out of all my cygwin stuff when I am just 
installing a simple package (like octave).  But for that one moment, 
setup.exe decided that the cygwin dll, et al had to be touched.


If you attempt to updated cygwin when cygwin (bash) is running, the 
cygwin.dll is locked.  So you can get updates to programs like rm that need 
that new cygwin.dll so everytime you run rm, you get this "missing blah 
..could nto be found in cygwin1.dll".


But you are hooped because setup.exe assumes that everything works (like rm) 
so if you try to reinstall with setup.exe, you are stuck.


My fix was to exit out of all cygwin programs and in cmd, go looking for the 
cygwin1.dll (assuming c: drive)


dir c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll*

you should find a cygwin1.dll and a cygwin1.dll.new - move the cygwin1.dll 
to cygwin1.dll.old and cygwin1.dll.new to cygwin1.dll.  If you see any other 
.new files, you might want to do the same.


Then I reinstalled using setup.exe all the cygwin tools again (core, etc) so 
that everything could run to completion successfully.


If you don't find the cygwin1.dll.new file, then my problem was not your 
problem (MPNYP).


Larrie.

Thanks for the response, but it doesn't seem to be the same problem. 
I do not have any .new files in c:\cygwin\bin.  I've tried
