If I run setup-1.7.exe -s ftp://ftp.heanet.ie and hit Enter on every screen, I get a messagebox that says: Unable to get setup-2.ini from <ftp://ftp.heanet.ie> Oddly, 'ftp.heanet.ie' is listed twice in "Available Download Sites". The first 'ftp.heanet.ie' is highlighted, and doesn't work. If I highlight the second 'ftp.heanet.ie' instead, then it works fine.
Same outcome with: setup-1.7.exe -s ftp://ftp.heanet.ie setup-1.7.exe -s "ftp://ftp.heanet.ie"; setup-1.7.exe --site "ftp://ftp.heanet.ie"; setup-1.7.exe --site="ftp://ftp.heanet.ie"; and also with other mirrors, e.g.: setup-1.7.exe -s http://www.mirrorservice.org This occurs on a brand-new machine with XP SP3 freshly installed, with no prior installation of any version of Cygwin. I'm running setup-1.7 version 2.661 (current) in an XP "Command Prompt". My ultimate goal is a '--quiet-mode' installation, but this simplified test case seems to be the main obstacle. -- 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
