Telling configure where the regex library with the LIBS= line from above worked fine. I get openldap to compile fine, but make test fails. I have posted the issue to the openldap list so I am waiting to see if anyone can give me a clue as to the problem.

Quoted from MSDN: "Windows NT/2000/XP: If the file-mapping object is backed by the paging file (hFile is INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE), the paging file must be large enough to hold the entire mapping. If it is not, MapViewOfFile fails." In other words, you can't mmap() more anonymous memory as your pagefile has room for.

RE: Cron problem
I had the same CRON problem. Got struckup. I was about send this same requets to cygwin. As you wanted, here is the event log info that I captured from my Windows 2000 system after setting up cygwin cron. I noticed that following is the event type generated in event logs. The time stamp of this event matches with the time, when I run 'crontab -e' to edit the crontab entries with some vi or so, which is invoked by 'crontab -e', but not with the time stamp when the cron is supposed to triggered in the crontab. --- cut --- The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( crontab ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is part of the event: crontab : Win32 Process Id = 0x5AC : Cygwin Process Id = 0x41C : (Administrator) LIST (Administrator). --- cut --- To know mnore about how to look into event log, here is the help window contents from Win2000: Notes: To open Event Viewer, click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. Double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Event Viewer. Look for Application Events, as I could not find any relavant system events that match our cron test time stamps. This event also happens when I setup crontab in any other way like what is described in the previous email. No event log is reported, when the cron is supposed to execute, cron job was not run at all. This cron setup needs something to do with Windows Registry, since Windows has come up with some fancy "Microsoft Scheduler" kind of thing, which our cron should be able internally use it. Any info on how to make this cron work, will be of great help to us all.

vt100 fonts (box characters) and terminal emulation
In short: What is the path of least resistance to improve the terminal emulation and character display in my cygwin shell window or rxvt? In long: I use a commercial package for SSH called SecureCRT which comes with some fonts called "vt100" that have those nice ncurses line drawing characters in them. It also has what I assume to be the equivalent of a termcap entry for "linux." I am trying to get away from it however. I tried to use 'rxvt -reverseVideo -fn "Terminal" -e bash' and run the ncurses-tests in /usr/bin/ncurses-test-dll/ and was unsatisfied with the results. I tried several other fixed width fonts that were by default on my system. I also tried just the regular cygwin.bat's terminal. Perhaps someone has gotten cygwin shell or rxvt to emulate a linux terminal or xterm better before and can save me some headache?

Midnight Commander mc-4.5.55
I am trying to compile mc 4.5.55 with no luck. First, it complained I did not have glib so I tried to install that. However, glib complained I did not have pkgconfig. I downloaded the latest version of pkgconfig and I can't get that to install either. I read the instructions and typed "./configure" then "make" then "make install". I get a variety of errors and eventually, it does not work. These are the packages I tried to install: pkgconfig-0.8.0.tar.gz glib-1.3.11.tar.gz mc-4.5.55.tar.gz 1. Is it possible to install mc under cygwin? 2. Does anyone know where I can some binaries to avoid compiling it myself? 3. How can I tell what other packages I need to get pkgconfig and glib to install? I have attached my current cygcheck in case it is helpful to anyone. Regards, rotaiv. PS - I have deliberately not installed all the packages. Therefore, I would like to resolve these problems by only installing the required packages.

Re: Font size and color for rxvt
Rotaiv, This has now acquired the status of a perennial question, so searching the archives will yield several informative messages. Also, if you read the man page, then you must not have read it very carefully, because it's quite clear about setting the fonts. It won't explain the funkiness with some fonts and scaling and whatnot, but the mail messages and some experimentation will bring you up to speed with that. Here's an invocation I use in a Taskbar shortcut: 'D:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -g 120x99+732+0 -bg #55 -fg #ee -fn "Lucida Console-11" -sr -sl 5000 -vb -e /bin/bash --login -i" Here's another: "D:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -g 120x91+853+0 -bg #55 -fg #ee -fn "Andale Mono-12" -sr -sl 5000 -vb -e /bin/bash --login -i" (You'll need a screen in 1600x1200 resolution for these sizes and positions to work and fairly good vision, if my coworkers' constant squinting is any indication.) The Andale version crams a lot of text in a given bit of screen real estate, but the Andale font is not included with Windows (at least through 2000, I don't know about XP). It is available by no-cost download from Microsoft. You'll find information about this in the mail archives, too. Good luck.

I resolved the configure issue by just commenting out the respective section ;-B; finally I know that regexp is there and I don't need configure to guess around. I've included the 'patched' configure-script. In this forma it runs successfully on my system. But even then openldap refuses to compile completely. Compilation breaks in the server part. When linking slapd I get the following error message: "Warning: resolving _gdbm_errno by linking to __imp__gdbm_errno (auto-import) nmth00.o(.idata$4+0x0): undefined reference to `_nm__gdbm_errno'" libgdbm is in the library list. This *may* be just an issue of sequence of libraries but I don't know. As I currently only need the client part (ldapsearch for integration in emacs) I didn't check out how to 'repair' openldap for cygwin. The needed client parts are correctly compiled. Please note that there is a MSVC .dsp file in the 'build'-subdirectory. Perhaps it is usable, but I didn't try.

Re: How do I use a socks server with cygwin?
Just a quick thought about firewalls and ssh'ing through them.. We had a firewall that allowed https-connections, and well, you can use this to connect to a ssh-server, by telling ssh to use a wrapper script to fire up the connection, get in touch with me and I can dig it up.. Meanwhile, using a socks server, well basically it should be up to the application, not cygwin to handle this, so if you find a cvs supporting socks off you go.. :-) /Andy -- The eye of the beholder rests on the beauty! -- 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/

Re: RPM 4 under cygwin

I don't blame you -- it's very irritating > to be "talked down to" as if one was a child playing with adult toys. > Want to know why I took such an abrasive tone? Sorry for my tone. In fact, I like RPM and would like very much to see my beloved Cygwin support RPM packages (natively or not). The reason is rather selfish : I would like to start an RPM installation project for PHP code (for libraries and applications, not the executable itself). Communities (PEAR, BinaryCloud) propose XML based installation solutions. In my humble opinion, the proposed solutions will never reach the power of RPM. As a result, existing PHP libraries are not widely reused/shared by common programs. For example, PhpMyAdmin and PhpPgAdmin do not make an extensive use of common libraries. People start several projects that come down to the same things (i.e. PhpOracleAdmin, PhpMyAdmin, ..., Nuke, PowerNuke, etc...). Another example is pgAdmin, the windows administration interface of PostgreSQL that I contribute to. We use an $ installation program which does not have the power and flexibility of RPM. Furthermore, pgAdmin is based on pgSchema (abstraction layer) which could be installed and maintained as a separete library if we had RPM. OK, I stop here as this is not the Cygwin concern. The need for RPM under Windows is general. The power of RPM is to be able to share material. Any RPM solution under Windows is welcome (based on Cygwin or not). Also, thank you all for this great Cygwin software. I hope to be one day able to install KDE2 from Cygwin...

I've uploaded fortune-1.8-1 to the Cygwin net distribution. When fortune is run with no arguments it prints out a random epigram.

You can control the choice of the adage by several options. To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. The, run setup and answer all of the questions. Note that we do not allow 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.

That is, they not only deliberately ignore the system cygwin1.dll even if the windows runtime loader finds it, but they also REQUIRE two spearate copies of cygwin1.dll -- one in the vcdimager subfolder and another in the cdrdao subfolder.

Re: bash/cmd CTRL-C problem...
Hi,
sorry for following up myself, but I found out that Cygwin equally handles
CTRL-BREAK and CTRL-C by sending a SIGINT to the process.
See http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gnu-win32/message/27643 (last sentence).
This seems to be the source of the problem.
CTRL-BREAK under the cmd shell terminates the process after handling the
signal without further executing any code. The bad thing is that under bash
the same behaviour follows from pressing CTRL-BREAK _and_ CTRL-C !!
If this is a design issue, can someone please explain what the reasons
are...
We have an application that forks other processes. The main thread is
waiting for the signal handler to return in order to cleanly stop the child
processes. By just stopping the parent process the child processes keep
running and I have to kill them manually each time I press CTRL-C. The same
application is working fine under windows cmd shell and bash under Linux ,
HP-UX 10/11, AIX4.x, and SunOS 2.5+...
Please help, I don't want to use the stupid windows cmd shell ;-)

No, actually you are wrong -- this is not a demonstration of anything of the sort. Let us suppose that you COULD link cygwin1.dll statically (into rpm.exe?). What mount table would be available for that cygwin-inside-rpm.exe to use? In the scenario you raise, there is really no fundamental difference between cygwin-inside-rpm.exe, and a cygwin.dll-based-rpm with a cygwin1.dll sitting next to it. The fact is, you need a NON cygwin program to do some initial system configuration before cygwin-based progs can operate properly on a virgin system.

Oh, wait, that's tar -- and it's been around since 1962 at least.

Re: sscanf %as broken (was: linking with glut32.lib?)
The man page of the glibc sscanf explains it all - see this: a Indicates that the conversion will be s, the needed memory space for the string will be malloc'ed and the pointer to it will be assigned to the char pointer variable, which does not have to be initialised before. This flag does not exist in ANSI C. In other words this is a glibc artifact and cygwin uses newlib as its C runtime library.
