During a recent upgrade of about a dozen packages, I saw the Cygwin setup window progress normally ("deleting package xyz..."), and then up popped a window that said:"In-use files detected" "Unable to extract /etc/postinstall/bash.sh -- the file is in use. Please stop all Cygwin processes and select 'Retry,' or select 'Continue' to go on anyway (you will need to reboot)." I didn't have any Cygwin processes running
There can be processes running that you can't see easily. I use Process Explorer, from <http://www.sysinternals.com/>, which now redirects to <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/default.aspx>. Perhaps the default Task Manager works OK for this purpose. Anyway, on my current system, even if I have closed all Bash windows and Emacs windows and and and, it is still running ssh-agent.exe. Also, in XP Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services, it shows services CYGWIN sshd CYGWIN syslog-ng When upgrading, I make a point of killing ssh-agent.exe via Process Explorer, and then stopping the two services via Control Panel. -- Tim McDaniel, t...@panix.com -- 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/
