So this isn't a fresh install and in fact there is not only some Cygwin process running but a full blown Perl that has loaded a number of modules. How'd you manage to do that before Cygwin was ready installing? Are you perhaps reporting from a follow-on invocation of setup.exe after the first install already failed? For your current case, you need to get rid of _all_ running Cygwin processes. Best idea is to open a shell and issue /usr/bin/rebase-trigger fullrebase /usr/bin/pkill . (you need to have procps installed for this command to be available). Then run setup again to have it re-do the rebase and run all postinstall scripts that failed before. But I'm still interested how that initial failure could have occured, so if you could maybe look in /var/log/setup.log if something indicates what happened there that would be good.
