There are some mount points that _must_ be created for Cygwin to work reliable and many packages have postinstall scripts that should be run. Setup.exe will take care of them for you. Without it you are on your own. I'm only mentioning these as a caution against what you seem to insist on doing.

Re: Where is the manual to manually install Cygwin in Windiows 2000
George, I don't know what's not to like about Setup.exe (well, maybe URL-encoded mirror directory names), but you're really bucking the tide and going against the grain in trying to install without Setup.exe. You'll also be told (if this message doesn't forestall it) that this list doesn't cater to problems with installation or problems originating in installation errors for people who don't use the standard installation procedure based on Setup.exe. On the off chance that your poor experience was the result of an earlier, less capable or less fully debugged version of Setup.exe, why don't you tell us when you last used Setup.exe and why it did not live up to your expectations.

fortune-1.8-2.tar.bz2 minor bug
Hi Cygwin: The copy of fortune-1.8-2.tar.bz2 I get from planetmirror.com gives a warning message when I test it with bunzip -t.

Asynchronous exceptions
Hi,
anybody has working example of catching asynchronous exceptions on
cygwin 2.95-3?
I tried:
int main()
{
try
{
BadFunc();
}
catch(...)
{
printf( "Badfunc was really bad!\n" );
}
}
void BadFunc()
{
BYTE* p = NULL;
*p = 0;
}
Althought I complied with -fexceptions -fasynchronous-exceptions, it
just prints out the cygwin/gcc runtime error message and produces stack
dump.
Does cygwin support that?

Note on cygwin
Paul Leddy [paul dot harbourlight.com] send this to the kde-cygwin list regarding cygwin and I thought, that this seems to be good for the cygwin list. :-) Ralf I setup Cygwin last night. Why not just get a Linux box? Well, everybody can't just get a Linux box: maybe they need the tools at a MS-based corporate job, maybe there is a lack of cash, maybe a lack of know-how. So making these incredibly useful tools available to them instantly is wonderful, I think. And it is all free! So what is the reason here? Compassion, giving, sharing. What does that say to the commercial outlets and the consumers? Consumers ask what they should really pay for. Outlets ask what is necessary to create. It sends a message to those who are thinking of going into business building the same tools for Windows that already exist on Unix-type systems. That message? Already done; expand and add elsewhere. Or you have competition, so do a better job somehow. Of course, it will take time for this message to be heard and for it to be effective, but it is getting louder everyday. So what is the reason here? A bit of revenge and some social efficiency. By porting KDE, not only KDE, but hundreds of useful tools will be instantly available. And not just the command-line ones. What kind of impression does using KDE GUI apps make on a newbie? There is an alternative! Think of the impression made on the new and navie this when they hear: "You can get that C++ compiler you need for your college course setup at home [on a existing Windows box] for free. Thanks to? Gnu. Heard of them?" What kind of moral message does that send? Do you think some who hear this message may look at the world as a little rosier that day than the day before? I do. Reason: spread the love. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

fork() works ?? Server development questions
Hi,
This is a re-post of my 04/06/2002 message
Many thanks to Gerrit and Phil Frisbie, Jr. for messages
But despite Gerrit seems to make it work a little better (not on local
host), it'not enough for me
Thanks to Phil for ideas but pthread are not suitable for me cause my target
project(not sample code below)
should run on systems wich were not pthread friendly !!
So big questions are still there :
Is it possible to run a server like sample code i give ?
If yes could somebody send me sample piece of code wich works ?
Is it possible to rely on fork() in cygwin ?
Is there sockets issue in the way i use it ?
I will be please, to read from Corinna Vinschen seems to be the maintainer
of portion of Cygwin, I question about
Thanks
Here start my original post
I'm in trouble porting a socket base utility from my own between mulptiple
OS.
The goal is to maintain as much as possible the same code, since this
utility
do not use advanced features (I DO NOT WANT TO CODE AN HTTP SERVER !!)
For MS plateform I hope in cygwin environment, but despite the fact it
compiles well
I do not achieve srv programm to work.
Below you will find text for four files srv.c http.c http.h and
response.html which are not the
target code, but permit to see the real problem.
This code compile under AIX whith native C compiler and other unices and run
cleanly.
This is only for test and many things were tricky, for example http HEADER
is hardcoded in the
html file !!
The problem is under cygwin environment 1.3.10 Win2k pro SP2
To test simply compile and launch srv -> gcc -o srv http.c srv.c (for AIX
cc -o srv http.c srv.c)
Then launch your favorite browser and enter those url
http://@IP_host_running_srv:12345/
just remplace "@IP_host_running_srv" by proper address or hostname for you
(Hum just thinking i only test with IE !!)
You may get a page saying hello WORLD !
Just running fine for me when running srv under AIX !
Got nothing when running on Win2k, all server trace appears in console
window but nothing in browser !!
Then I quickly set up a proxy in java based on BufferedReader and
BufferedWriter classes to
see dialog between browser and srv and surprise in this case it'works !!!
finally here are my questions
1- : Any error in the code ?
2- : If not, what's wrong cygwin, Win2k ?
3- : Is it possible to set up this type of server using cygwin under MS
windows
(interrested in NT and W2k, forking a child per client !) ?
4- : What is different when using proxy ?
5- : Signal handlers doesn't not work under cygwin why ?
Thanks for any help and answers !!

A good way to debug LocalSystem services?
While trying to debug the following problem: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-04/msg00677.html I needed to run code (i.e., seteuid()) under the LocalSystem account. So, I used ssh to simulate su. Specifically, I changed the SYSTEM entry in /etc/passwd to be as follows: SYSTEM:*:18:18:Local System,U-TISHLERJASON\LocalSystem,S-1-5-18:/home/system:/bin/bash Then I created /home/system and copied my ssh keys to /home/system/.ssh. After these steps, I could "su" to SYSTEM by simply executing the following: $ ssh system@tishlerjason Now I could run strace, gdb, etc. in the context of the LocalSystem account which really help me solve the above problem. Maybe this is a decent way of debugging LocalSystem services in general? Do others agree? Note that I found one anomaly so far. With /etc/passwd as above, when cron runs jt's crontab it sets $HOME to /home/system instead of /home/jt.

How do I build strace.exe?
Hi, I am attempting to build a debuggable version of strace.exe, but am having some compile difficulties. I'm hoping it's as simple as giving some configure parms, but it looks like my build is getting confused trying to define or use __uid16_t & __gid16_t. I just updated my system to the latest system, and grabbed the source for cygwin-1.3.10-1. I then went into winsup/utils, and did a './configure,', and then 'make strace.exe' Do I need to do any additional steps to build strace.exe?

Chris J (Not to be confused with Chris F), How about sending along the source code for your small program, so I can give it a wiz-bang. So far, running strace on my system seems to make the problem I have go away, so if you can readily reproduce the behaviour, I would like to try it on my system. Thanks.

If I attempt this, it will be "during my work day", which, at the present time, comprises about 5AM to midnight every day, including weekends and most holidays - aren't startup companies fun? -wink- ...I need this other code to run on a Windows Box (NT/2k and later), and it's a high priority. If the best way to get it there is to help implement suid in cygwin, then I can justify it and both cygwin and my work benefit. Since I think my problem would be solved if only cygwin honored the suid bit, then it may make sense. Otherwise, I'm off to create a wholly different solution that will probably not make use of cygwin at all, and in that case, cygwin won't benefit. That said, presuming I give it a go, while this is a very high priority, it doesn't mean I can spend 100% of my time on it until it's done, though I may spend 8 hours a day on it, perhaps. ...Anyway, this is why I'm asking for a mentor: Help keep me focused on this problem and not get lost on dead-ends. Remember I indicated I have no experience programming in this environment, and it's clear enough I'm not yet fully informed of the systems internals issues that NT+ pose. Yet some of you are. If you can point me in the right direction, this could work. Or, you could let me flail around, spend countless hours reading email archives only to not find direction, spend countless more reading up on MS topics that don't really have anything to do with what I'm trying to do - but I don't know any better - and the project suffers and with it my work. And we both loose - cygwin looses a potentially very helpful contribution and I loose potentially very important hours. Resolving this connundrum is exactly what mentorship is all about: Focus the newcomer on the important things. If you are - someone is - up for it, so am I. Keep in mind, I'm offering that huge chunk of that time you said was required in exchange for only a little time from an experienced member of the community. I don't understand why you wouldn't encourage such a "trade." However, I'm experienced enough to know that you're right when you say solving the SUID problem will take "a lot of time." Without someone to draw upon for guidance, I'm not sure I'm ready for the risk of this tar-baby (time sink). Yes, it's possible to use this e-list for that purpose, but experience says that's not nearly as effective as someone making the decision, "OK, I'll point. Here's where you need to go..."

Yes, I was afraid of that. -frown- Perhaps this seems a silly place to say so, but I'm very impressed with the work I've seen in CYGWIN, and in the open community and GNU in general. In researching this SUID problem, I spent six or eight hours yesterday reading all the related posts from the archive, and I noticed how there's a lot of really good work - the internals discussions have been well written and there are a few of you, like you, Corinna, who are outstanding contributors... And, I have been wondering how I might contribute too, being as over- worked and as busy as I am. However, I _really_ need this - or some solution - working in this environment, so it seems we have a case of converging needs. I think It makes more sense for me to help out with suid than it does for me to write a one-off. ... After thinking it over for a bit... I'm willing to give it a go if someone can mentor me along. My apprenticeship resume: I started hacking in '77 at the tender age of 14, so by now I've got a lot of experience. I once wrote a complete real-time, multi-tasking operating system by myself which is in use today controlling pipelines and oil refineries, and I used to be one of the top VAX/VMS internals people at DEC, so this internals experience must be of some use here, especially since NT/W2k is based on VMS. If someone were to work with me, point me at the juicy stuff so I don't have to hunt so much, I can probably commit to this project. Otherwise, I'm concerned it'll take me too long to ramp up.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: postgresql-7.2.1-1
New News: === I have updated the version of PostgreSQL to 7.2.1-1. The tarballs should be available on a Cygwin mirror near you shortly. PostgreSQL 7.2.1 is a critical bug fix release that corrects the following problem: sequence counters will go backwards after a crash See the following for more details: http://www.us.postgresql.org/news.html Old News: === PostgreSQL is an open-source, Object-Relational DBMS. If interested, see the PostgreSQL web site for more details: http://www.postgresql.org/ Please read the README file: /usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.2.1.README since it covers requirements, installation, known issues, etc. To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. Note that we have recently stopped downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Germany, ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ is usually pretty good. In the UK, http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date within 48 hours. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror. The setup.exe program will figure out what needs to be updated on your system and will install newer packages automatically.

RE: pthread_cond_wait does not relock mutex on release
It's interesting that your system behaves so differently. (I
believe signals are supposed to interrupt condition variable
waits--perhaps you're system is being flooded by them?)
There are a few things you could try, including:
o Disabling signals in the created threads. To do this, you
have to disable them in the parent, create the threads,
then reenable them. It's generally worth it.
o Using a semaphore (you still have to check for a spurious
wakeup due to a caught signal).
Here are some code snippets you might find helpful:
This creates threads, disabling signals (extracted from
Python's POSIX threads module):
sigset_t oldmask, newmask;
sigfillset(&newmask);
pthread_sigmask(SIG_BLOCK, &newmask, &oldmask);
pthread_create(...);
pthread_sigmask(SIG_SETMASK, &oldmask, NULL);
These snippets should let you use semaphores to signal
between threads:
/*
* As of February 2002, Cygwin thread implementations mistakenly report error
* codes in the return value of the sem_ calls (like the pthread_ functions).
* Correct implementations return -1 and put the code in errno. This supports
* either.
*/
static int
fix_status(int status)
{
return (status == -1) ? errno : status;
}
...
/* VARIABLES USED IN ALL SNIPPETS: */
sem_t *sem;
int status;
/* CREATE A SEMAPHORE */
sem = (sem_t *)malloc(sizeof(sem_t));
if (sem) {
status = sem_init(sem,0,0); /* start "acquired" */
if (status != 0) {
free((void *)sem);
sem = NULL;
}
}
if (!sem) REPORT_ERROR();
/* DESTROY THE SEMAPHORE */
if (sem) {
status = sem_destroy(sem);
if (status != 0) REPORT_ERROR();
free(sem);
}
/* WAIT FOR THE SIGNAL */
do {
status = fix_status(sem_wait(sem));
} while (status == EINTR); /* Retry if interrupted by a signal */
if (status != 0) REPORT_ERROR();
/* SIGNAL THE SEMAPHORE */
status = sem_post(sem);
if (status != 0) REPORT_ERROR();
I think the bug requiring the "fix_status" function has been
fixed, but you might find it easier to understand this way.
The "normal" way to wait for a semaphore is:
do {
status = sem_wait(sem);
} while ((status == -1) && (errno == EINTR));
With semaphores you have to be careful to match the number of
sem_wait() and sem_post() calls (extra sem_post() calls would
cause future sem_wait()'s not to wait).

Control-W word erase on tcsh command line
Hello, Using the latest Cygwin under Win98 and Win2k (though this has occured in all versions of Cygwin I've used). When I try to use a Control-W under tcsh it erases the entire line instead of just the previous word. It happens whether I'm in the console or using an xterm (rxvt). It works properly when using bash. I'm using the tcsh that came with the Cygwin update (6.11.00). Here is the version info: version tcsh 6.11.00 (Astron) 2001-09-02 (i386-intel-posix) options 8b,dl,al,rh,color Is there an option that I can set to make it work? Or perhaps a termcap entry that needs to be modified? Thanks for any info.

ASCII ftp transfer contains ^M
Hi all, I installed Cygwin 1.3.10 in w2k advanced server (SP2). I create a DOS text file A with notepad in PC. The size of file A displayed as 80 bytes in DOS prompt. I used ASCII mode to transfer file A to the w2k advanced server (using Cygwin ftp server). The size of file A displayed as 80 bytes in Cygwin. When I use Cygwin command 'dos2unix' to convert file A. The file size changed to 75 byte. File A may contain ^M characters. I want Cygwin convert file A from DOS format to UNIX format automatically after ftp. How can i do that, any setting needed ? thanks ___ Do You Yahoo!?

Briliant Stuff
The installer is best ever.. better than attempts made by microsoft( Offic2000). I used the reinstall feature( Brilliant!) and it knew not to create the desktop short cut. An installer that behaves the way a unix hacker would if doing it manually! Also, cygwin-xfree86 is the only FREE way to get X11R6 on Win32 desktop. I can use the monitor on my Linux box elsewhere.
