Sorry about a new thread, but I just subscribed to this list. Using 3.6.1-1 works fine. I am very sure this is based on the same issue that others have reported.
Here is what I see: [148118.718] (EE) Fatal server error: [148118.718] (EE) Linking lock file (/tmp/.X0-lock) in place failed: Permission denied Which makes no sense, bash reports: Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ ls -ld /tmp drwxrwxrwt 1 Unknown+User Unknown+Group 0 Jun 4 09:16 /tmp Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ ls -l /tmp/.X0-lock ls: cannot access '/tmp/.X0-lock': No such file or directory Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ touch /tmp/.X0-lock Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ ls -l /tmp/.X0-lock -r--r--r-- 1 Unknown+User Unknown+Group 0 Jun 4 09:22 /tmp/.X0-lock Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ rm /tmp/.X0-lock rm: remove write-protected regular empty file '/tmp/.X0-lock'? y Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ Doing more testing shows that Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ cd /home/dslutz/cygwin-te st/ Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ touch bad Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ ls -l total 0 -r--r--r-- 1 Unknown+User Unknown+Group 0 Jun 4 13:47 bad -rw-rw-r-- 1 Unknown+User Unknown+Group 0 Jun 4 13:44 good Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ ls -ln total 0 -r--r--r-- 1 4294967295 4294967295 0 Jun 4 13:47 bad -rw-rw-r-- 1 4294967295 4294967295 0 Jun 4 13:44 good Unknown+User@CPC-dslut-3Q3JN$ But I do see that the ACLs on the files are different and is most likely why XWin is failing. mintty has the the issue reported in: Robert Fensterman [email protected] Tue May 27 16:14:48 GMT 2025 cygin 3.6.2-1 under Win11 24H2: Cannot launch: no available terminals https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2025-May/258214.html and Roumen Petrov [email protected] Sun Jun 1 08:02:12 GMT 2025 cygin 3.6.2-1 under Win11 24H2: Cannot launch: no available terminals https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2025-June/258234.html and Markus Hansmair [email protected] Mon Jun 2 10:56:02 GMT 2025 cygwin 3.6.2.1 under Win11 23H2: UID and GID mapping changed https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2025-June/258245.html The e-mail: Johannes Schindelin [email protected] Mon Jun 2 21:34:47 GMT 2025 cygin 3.6.2-1 under Win11 24H2: Cannot launch: no available terminals https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2025-June/258250.html looks like the key in that I get for "getent passwd $(id -u)": NASUNI+dslutz:*:4096:4096:U-NASUNI\dslutz,S-1-12-1-3596282818-1216142758-3954360507-2609862755:/home/dslutz:/bin/bash I also have some the same issues with UID, GID like Markus Hansmair [email protected] Mon Jun 2 10:56:02 GMT 2025 cygwin 3.6.2.1 under Win11 23H2: UID and GID mapping changed https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2025-June/258245.html reports. But I do not see the bad UID, GID on files that Markus sees. I can run any tests in a short amount of time.
