Re: 1.7.7(0.230/5/3) - Cannot change mode of file, and other permission issues on a Windows fileshare

Hi Corinna, I went to the Cygwin Snapshots page, I suppose I'll look for a file with a name similar to this one: --> cygwin1-20100923.dll.bz2 except having a "0924" date string in it? Will the Changelog or Diffs links at the top of the page identify the patched build? ===Keith -- Proble

Re: Windows Shortcut That Runs Cygwin Command

Panos, I don't have Windows 7, however, this procedure is generic enough that it should work. Try it and let me know. 1. Create this plain DOS .cmd file in c:\cygwin\usr\local\bin\dos2cygwin.cmd. Line endings should be CRLF so it may be best to create this with Notepad. @echo off echo. echo.---

CMD.EXE able to create files in directories on a shared drive, but bash in cygwin is unable to

This permissions problem has existed for awhile, and I'd like to find a solution. CMD.EXE is able to create files inside directories on a standard Windows share, but from a Bash shell on Cygwin, a permission denied message occurs, and this is in most if not all directories: -bash: .cpan/b

Re: CMD.EXE able to create files in directories on a shared drive, but bash in cygwin is unable to

I asked our Windows admin to check permissions on the share. They are the same as everyone else's. I tried this entry in /etc/fstab, closed all Cygwin Bash windows, opened a window, unable to create files in /cygdrive/z or subdirectories within. Z: /cygdrive/z ntfs binary,noacl 0 0 Even when I

Renei, Any chance that we'd see a PostgreSQL 9.x Cygwin package anytime soon? It's understood that all package maintainers are volunteers. If that isn't on your packaging list, do you have a set of detailed instructions for how a Cygwin user could get the PG 9.x source and produce an installable

Writing to Windows Share issues fixed in cygwin1-20110829.dll.bz2

I stumbled across the following snapshot, cygwin1-20110829.dll.bz2, and now I can create files in a Windows Share that I haven't been able to properly access from Cygwin in months! Corinna, whatever changes you made to this snapshot have fixed the problem for me, at least. Hope they can be includ

Re: Writing to Windows Share issues fixed in cygwin1-20110829.dll.bz2

I was wrong. Only some improvement using the cygwin1-20110829.dll.bz2 snapshot. Problems still exist when trying to check in a file with RCS on this Windows share. Annotated test example below. Apologies for not being brief. Any ideas appreciated. However, progress has been made with the 0829

Double click to select within VIM behavior change

Fellow Cygwin Denizens, As we all know, when viewing a file with the "less" command, it's possible to double click on text in order to select/copy, and paste elsewhere at the command line or in another application (Word, Notepad, etc.) As recently as the last month or 6 weeks, this handy "shortcu
