Incorrect results from 'cygpath -w' when having anaconda installed
Hello! I am having incorrect results from 'cygpath -w': ### I have the cygwin root directory in C:\cygwin64, as confirmed by 'cmd': $ cmd Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22621.674] (c) Microsoft Corporation. Med enerett. C:\cygwin64\home\Enrique>exit ### Cygwin thinks my home directory is: $ pwd /home/Enrique ### But 'cygpath -w' thinks ... $ cygpath -w /home/Enrique C:\Users\Enrique\anaconda3\Library\home\Enrique ### Investigating, I found that there is no 'home' in C:\Users\Enrique\anaconda3\Library. ### Then I discovered this: $ mount C:/Users/Enrique/anaconda3/Library on / type ntfs (binary,noacl,auto) C:/Users/Enrique/anaconda3/Library/usr/bin on /bin type ntfs (binary,noacl,auto) C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,noacl,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) Huh ??? How does this work? Is there a way to hide the mounts done by anaconda? I guess some anaconda binaries want to find the 'Library' directory as the root, but cygwin continues to find its own root under C:/cygwin64. Why does it get tripped by the anaconda install just when doing the path translation? -Enrique -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

National characters in the command window
I have a Norwegian keyboard, and when I type the national characters on the command line, nothing shows up - that is, the æ (the ae ligature) and å (a with ring above) keys do not respond, while the ø (o with slash across) key produces 'o'. Dead-accent key combinations produce nothing. The cursor does not advance. I have a file with the ae ligature in the file name. The command "ls | od -t x1" shows that character as 0xe6, consistent with latin1 or with cp1252. "ls" to the screen displays the file name properly. It seems the problem only affects keyboard input. In a regular "dos" cmd window I can type file names with national characters, and list the file names. The environment vairables LANG and LC_* are not set. I have not found any setting of these that make a difference. The command chcp.com in the bash window returns 437. In 436, the ae ligature is 0x91. In a regular dos cmd window, "dir > dirfile" produces a file that contains cp437 coded file names. The ae ligature is 0x91. I determine this by "od < dirfile" in the bash window. Using chcp to set codepage 1252 in the bash window makes the ae ligature display as the greek mu character when doing "ls" to the screen. "ls | od" still shows 0xe6 (1252) for the ae ligature. On input, the o-slash key nno longer produces 'o'. It produces nothing. The cursor does not advance. Starting a new bash process in the same window does not seem to change anything. I have found so little about this on the net, that I believe I must be missing something very basic in my cygwin installation. Does everybody else have the same problem? Is there a good description anywhere of how these things work?

Re: Space in Dir Name with shell script and tar
From: "Troy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Thursday, January 18, 2007 2:50 AM Subject: Space in Dir Name with shell script and tar I am trying to make a shell script to do automatic bckups with tar. My problem is that tar stumbles on the spaces in the dir names if they are in a variable. Probiably best shown by example The dir I want to back up is g:/Mark I+/Experimental Data/ I if do this in the script tar -czvpf $NAME_OF_BACKUP.tgz /cygdrive/g/Mark' 'I+/Experimental' 'Data/* Try this: tar -czvpf $NAME_OF_BACKUP.tgz "/cygdrive/g/Mark I+/Experimental Data" That is, enclose the name of the directory in double quotation marks, and drop the trailing /* it works fine but if I do this DIRECTORY_TO_BACKUP="/cygdrive/g/Mark' 'I+/Experimental' 'Data" Problem: You are enclosing the apostrophes in the double quotation marks. That means the apostrophes become part of the value of the variable DIRECTORY_TO_BACKUP tar -czvpf $NAME_OF_BACKUP.tgz $DIRECTORY_TO_BACKUP/* Problem: Bash will replace the variable name with the variable's value, but it will not interpret the apostrophes specially. Interpretation of apostrophes occur at an earlier stage. Next, bash will perform word splitting on the variable's value. This means that the spaces contained in the variable's value will be treated specially, as word splitting points. Try this DIRECTORY_TO_BACKUP="/cygdrive/g/Mark I+/Experimental Data" tar -czvpf $NAME_OF_BACKUP.tgz "$DIRECTORY_TO_BACKUP" i.e., enclose the variable's assigned value in double quotation marks (or apostrophes, if you prefer, but for your convenience, use a single pair around all of the value. Next, enclose the variable substitution in double quotation marks. This time it must be double quotes, not apostrophes, since apostrophes prevent variable substitution. You can tack /* at the end if you want, like this "$DIR"/* but if you want to back up everything in the directory it is better to leave out /*. With /*, files and directories whose names begin with a dot (like .bashrc) are *not* included in the backup. (This applies to files at the top level. A file named "$DIR"/some-subdir/.bashrc is backed up with or without /*.) I get tar: Removing leading `/' from member names This is normal. You are specifying absoluth paths, and then, upon restore, you would be forced to restore to exactly the same path. When tar removes the leading / it becomes possible to restore the data to a different directory, eg to /restored/cygdrive/c/... Here you see another point. It is better to do cd "$DIR" tar cvfpz bakupname.tgz . with a single dot as the backup directory. Then, upon restore, you do not need to have a prefix of directories cygdrive/c/... tar: /cygdrive/g/Mark': Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: 'I+/Experimental': Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: 'Data/*: Cannot stat: No such file or directory tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors What am I doing wrong? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Space-in-Dir-Name-with-shell-script-and-tar-tf3031755.html#a8423703 Sent from the Cygwin Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Re: cygwin 1.5.23-2 : I can't use select() with serial device and socket
You don't show the complete output of the two programs. Do you have a device
connected to the serial port that echoes the data written? Or a device that
provides some data to read? With the first program, how many bytes does it
read?
Is the serial port set driver set to generate echo locally? On Linux? On XP?
On both?
The second code write on socket, but it says that serial port isn't ready
to read.
Your select statement appears to tell that there are no data available to
read on the serial port.
You should normally write select() read-write loops so that file descriptors
are entered into the write_fdset only if there is something to write.
Otherwise the program will be running in a tight loop because the the
select() returns telling that (e.g) the serial_fd is ready to accept more
data. The point in using select is to have the program sleep until there is
something to do.
while(up_is_open || down_is_open)
{
if (up_is_open) {
has_data(up_buffer))
FD_SET(space_fd, &write_fdset);
else
FD_SET(earth_fd, &read_fds);
}
if (down_is_open) {
if (has_data(down_buffer))
FD_SET(earth_fd, &write_fdset);
else
FD_SET(space_fd, &read_fdset);
}
ready_fds = select(max_fd, &read_fdset, &write_fdset, NULL, NULL);
if (ready_fds < 0) {...}
if (FD_ISSET(earth_fd, &write_fdset) {...}
if (FD_ISSET(space_fd, &write_fdset) {...}
if (FD_ISSET(earth_fd, &read_fdset) {...}
if (FD_ISSET(space_fd, &read_fdset) {...}
}

Re: But it is cygwin related.

The easiest way to achieve what you describe above, is to write a function in assembly, that is called from a C program implementing your A component. That way you leave it to the gcc toolchain to interface to the I/O routines in the standard library, while you can program the actual computation in assembly. As others have pointed out, the standard library is not quite the drag that you may have thought. Also, I do not think that there are any clever ways that interface with output routines in the cygwin dll any better than the compiler does. You could try to browse the source code of these routines with an eye to copying some of it into your assembly program, but you will likely find that it constitutes a kind of maze that is quite hard to understand, and that very few people on this planet understand well. Avoiding this dll means intefacing directly with whatever Microsoft offers. Ultimately there almost certainly are some kind of "interrupt" assembly instructions that the Windows libraries execute, that actually triger the transition to Windows kernel space, but again, that is really esoteric stuff that almost nobody knows, and that maybe changes between versions of the OS in quite hopelessly complicated and unpredictable ways. To help you get started, I shall hint you, but please bear with me if I make some mistake because I have not done this for quite many years. You will have to google "calling convention" and ask around about the specifics of interfacing assembly functions and C code. Such interfacing is specific for each compiler, even if there are some standardization efforts too -- google "ABI", "cdecl", "stdcall". The ABIs are specific for the architecture, and watch out for any differences between x86 and amd64. The answers are not different for the Cygwin environment as compared to Linux or Windows. Using the gcc toolchain there are some possible simplifications if you can write inline assembly in the C function. That way you leave to the compiler to arrange the correct calling sequence, but instead you need to figure out how to tell the gcc compiler how to place the named arguments in specific registers after the function entry. You can even let the tools choose the registers, you just refer to them as %0, %1, etc. I remember I saw many examples of this in the linux kernel code - I think it was in the start-up code or in the syscall interface code. I recommend reading http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-ia/index.html. Just a small detail: In the assembly files, add an underscore in front of the function name label. Omit this underscore in the function call in the C code. (Google "name mangling".) -- and remember to declare: extern mytype_t myfunction(arg_one_type_t, arg_two_type_t); Notice that the gnu assembly is somewhat different from the intel assembly code. You may combine writing pure assembly files with inline assembly in the C function. To do that you call your assembly code (or even jump to it) from the inline assembly in the C function. That way you may implement your own calling convention.

Looking up the first of the "missing" inifiles, eptex.ini,
I find it belongs to the cygwin package
"texlive-collection-langjapanese-20180414-1"
I have no knowledge of Japanese, and most likely no reason to install
said package.
The perl script also appears to have a mechanism to declare formats
disabled,
but the configuration file /etc/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf has the
following comment:
# Modified for the Cygwin distribution so that all formats are
# initially disabled. The postinstall scripts will enable those
# corresponding to installed packages.
I suspect that the postinstall script is broken, enabling formats that
are not installed.
It would take me quite long time to track down how this is implemented
in the postinstall script.
Who can I report this to?

Lately, whenever I run setup (x86), my /var/log/setup.log.full contains: 2017/12/20 03:07:44 running: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --norc --noprofile "/etc/postinstall/cygwin-doc.sh" mkshortcut: Saving "/cygdrive/c/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/C:/cygwin/User Guide (PDF).lnk" failed; does the target directory exist? mkshortcut: Saving "/cygdrive/c/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/C:/cygwin/User Guide (HTML).lnk" failed; does the target directory exist? mkshortcut: Saving "/cygdrive/c/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/C:/cygwin/API (PDF).lnk" failed; does the target directory exist? mkshortcut: Saving "/cygdrive/c/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/C:/cygwin/API (HTML).lnk" failed; does the target directory exist? mkshortcut: Saving "/cygdrive/c/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/C:/cygwin/Home Page.lnk" failed; does the target directory exist? mkshortcut: Saving "/cygdrive/c/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs/C:/cygwin/FAQ.lnk" failed; does the target directory exist? 2017/12/20 03:07:45 abnormal exit: exit code=3 Please notice the extra C:/ in front of the target link name.

(by the way -- this reveals another bug too: The script says "[ -r $t ] && $mks ..." where I am sure it should be "[ -r $target ] && $mks ...") (and again btw, I am not sure bash should count "[ -r ]" as a true statement) The script issues mkshortcut commands with sane arguments, no extra "C:/" in there. So I just tried to run the script from an elevated-privilege mintty shell: $ CYGWINFORALL=-A /bin/bash /etc/postinstall/cygwin-doc.sh But then it does NOT fail, and the shortcuts do get installed -- they were not present before. I am still running the 32-bit cygwin, though on a 64-bit windows 10 Home edition, version 1709, OS build 16299.125. Any ideas about what could be the problem? -Enrique -- 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
cygrunsrv: trailing command line arguyments not allowed
Hello, I am trying to install a service manually in an attempt to understand why cron-config did not work for me. So, I did this: $ net stop cron Tjenesten Cron daemon stopper . Tjenesten Cron daemon ble stoppet. $ cygrunsrv -R cron $ cygrunsrv -I -p /usr/sbin/cron.exe -a -n cygrunsrv: Trailing commandline arguments not allowed Try `cygrunsrv --help' for more information. I also tried a number of other combinations and orders of arguments, all with similar results. What am I doing wrong?

include "/usr/local/lib/python3.8" in rebaseall?
Hello! When I "pip install" python modules for which there are no cygwin packages, *.dll files are installed below /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/. Since rebaseall does not automatically rebase files under this location, I had fork failures. The following patch solved it for me: $ diff -u old-rebaseall rebaseall --- old-rebaseall 2021-07-08 04:06:16.843238400 +0200 +++ rebaseall 2021-07-08 04:08:20.586260500 +0200 @@ -219,7 +219,7 @@ # package manager, such as CPAN and RubyGems. for d in /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/py*/site-packages \ /usr/lib/php /usr/lib/R/site-library /usr/lib/rub*/gems \ - /usr/lib/octave/site + /usr/lib/octave/site /usr/local/lib/python*/site-packages do if [ -d $d ] then Thanks -Enrique -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
lftp error SSL_connect: sslv3 alert unexpected message
Hello everyone, I have been trying to use lftp to connect sftp.am.gxsics.com but just get the error SSL_connect: sslv3 alert unexpected message when using cygwin built of lftp (which uses OpenSSL). I then found a build that was done with GNUTLS with 4.3 version of lftp and this can connect with no issues using the same script and so it seems to be down to OpenSSL and the specific setup used by GXS which is kind of old school with implicit ftps on port 6366. Below are the log and lftp script. I have tried it on Windows 7 32 bits as well as Windows 8 32 bits. I ran cygcheck on windows 8 and got a blank file, but was able to run uname -a CYGWIN_NT-6.2 RM-LAPTOP 1.7.20(0.266/5/3) 2013-06-07 11:11 i686 Cygwin Thanks in advance. set cmd:default-protocol ftps set cmd:verify-host false set cmd:verify-path false set ftps:initial-prot P set ftp:list-empty-ok true set ftp:ssl-allow true set ftp:ssl-auth SSL set ftp:use-allo false set ftp:use-fxp false set net:idle 1 set net:max-retries set net:reconnect-interval-base 2 set net:reconnect-interval-max 4 set net:timeout 120 set ssl:check-hostname true set ssl:verify-certificate false open -d ftps://user:passw...@sftp.am.gxsics.com:6366 lcd /cygdrive/c/lftp ls cls bye Resolving host address... 1 address found: 204.90.130.188 Connecting to sftp.am.gxsics.com (204.90.130.188) port 6366 SSL_connect: sslv3 alert unexpected message Closing control socket ls: Fatal error: SSL_connect: sslv3 alert unexpected message Connecting to sftp.am.gxsics.com (204.90.130.188) port 6366 SSL_connect: sslv3 alert unexpected message Closing control socket Fatal error: SSL_connect: sslv3 alert unexpected message -- 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
