I found this thread in the mailing list archives http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-09/threads.html#00901 which is the exact same problem I am having but the thread seemed to die off with no resolution. Does anyone know what the resolution was, if one was reached, or what information should I supply, I have webspace I can put fairly large files on if needed.
The gist of the problem is that setup.exe fails with the message in the subject when changing an existing install or after wiping out the existing install and trying to set up a new install. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
