I seem to have the same problem as you. It was not there last time I ran updatedb which was a while ago (I do not have it running automatically). If anyone remembers, in Windows 95 and 98 if you worked with files on floppy there was a good chance that windows would keep checking the floppy drive ev

Your guess is correct, I do run seti@home in the background and stopping it gets rid of the problem. Very unfortunate situation since this makes cygwin virtually unusable in certain software configurations. - Original Message - From: "Randall R Schulz" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTE

possible cygwin bug: delays when using pipes

2003-01-15 Thread Eugene Rosenzweig
Seemingly, whenever I use a pipe in bash the cygwin freezes for a long time. For example: 'echo a | cat' takes about 10 seconds to execute, 'bash -l -i' takes about a minute. I am not sure when the problem appeared. Might have been last cygwin dll release but I am not sure. First time I noticed wa

Correction, my mistake. The packages were already downloaded which is why no action was taken. The uninstall still flailed. Once I chosen to download packages I had already the setup must have discovered the local copies. Would be nice for setup to provide a check for local copies in its download c

Re: Perl reports different cwd() value

Not really sure why you want to work around a standard way to express paths but, if you need to, maybe something like this? perl -e 'use Cwd;$path=cwd();print "[",$path,"]\n";$winpath = `cygpath -w $path`;print "[",$winpath,"]\n";$winpath=~ tr/\\/\//;print "[",$winpath,"]\n";' Excuse any bad per

tar -f behaviour

2002-02-26 Thread Eugene Rosenzweig
Looking at tar I noticed a small oddity in its behaviour, as compared to what I would have thought was 'normal' When dealing with files, using dash before options, the 'f' option has to be the last one in the option string, e.g. tar -tfz tarball.tar.gz works while tar -ftz tarball.tar.gz doesn't r

Re: Child died with signal 13

2002-02-26 Thread Eugene Rosenzweig
Hmm, it worked for me. I assume out of the documentation that tar will spawn gzip -d filename and pipe it into itself. So, if 13 is the system error from tar, which is EACCES, permission denied so maybe there is a problem accessing the file? The listing shows that file is owned by Administ(rator?)

Dani, You should really give us more info about the fault like say, the actual line number. Compile with -g option, run in gbd, it should tell you where it crashes, send us as much info as possible. I do not have experience in mysql but I did have a look at the code. If you are crashing in teh my
