I never compile cygwin so I would prefer a binary. But you can send me source code too 
and I will  try compile it.

I can test it on Windows 98, Windows 2000 SP2.

If I can help you with this random staff I do that, but I don't know how to get the 
point where the program hangs(windows say program isn't responding).
If you can send me some tips how to get this information t will try it.

Right. ;-)

Since it's a console program, if you allow it to interact with the 
desktop, it's going to create a console for itself.  I suppose you
could fiddle with running 'cygstart' or 'run' to try to get it to hide
the console.  That's without fiddling with sshd code that is.  I haven't
really investigated any of these options but it's just my way of saying
that it is quite possible to get a console program to hide the console
window.  See CreateProcess()/STARTUPINFO documentation for the details on 
the internals.

Re: Does Cygwin have a 2GB Memory/RAM limit ?

[Dan_Nazario/ACIM/americancentury]

I am running a Java application (Java version 1.4.x).

I try to allocate a JVM with anything much larger than 1.6GB and it fails.
So I started to look at memory (1.6GB is no problem for Java to allocate
providing everything else is working OK).

Two of the places I looked (see below) are the top command and vmstat.
Both of which reported 2GB of RAM available despite my having set max
memory size to 4GB.

Based on that observation, I assumed that cygwin has a built in memory
limit of 2GB.
I'm wondering if anyone has seen this before, or has an environment (RAM >
2GB) where they could do a quick test to see if setting the max memory to >
2GB(see html link below)  reports only 2GB available.

I've checked the FAQ, searched the news groups, googled 'till I can't
google no more ;-).  Can't find any reference to this.

Thanks for any help.

I don't think you've defined your problem well enough to answer.  Are you
running a single thread gcc program which mallocs memory until it fails?
If you have multiple CPUs and run multiple threads or multiple instances of
your program, you might be able to use more of the memory.

I observed a ssh crash on Win95 too, but only after running ssh-host-config
It went away after deleting the two ssh 22/ lines in c:\windows\services
They don't seem to end with CRNL.

I am not equipped to do serious debugging on my Win95 machine, strace shows
nothing of interest, the stackdump points to cygwin_getservbyname
and dup_ent.

Besides using fetchmail, there's a feature in Pine called "maildrop",
which offers you the same functionality, all within Pine. There's
information on configuring maildrops from the release notes (press M R in

Problem with ECONNABORTED

[Prabhanjan Kambadur]

I have a strange problem. I have a server listening on a unix stream
socket. However, accept() fails everytime with ECONNABORTED.  This problem
occurs when I run these programs under normal "cygwin" terminal.

However, when I run the very same programs under "xterm" everything works
fine. Is there any documentation for this problem?

I am running the latest cygwin version on windows XP professional.

Re: Launching cygwin from cd

[fergus]

There has been quite a lot on this earlier in the year. (Try searching on
"portable", maybe.) I routinely use a CD containing everything but X
applications, but it would be easy to make one that has them, lacking
something else instead. I've got a 1GB USB stick that would accommodate even
more, but I guess that nowadays something approaching 1.5 GB or more would
be needed to accommodate the whole of Cygwin in a convenient portable
manner.

The real complication in using a portable CD version lies in protecting the
host machine from the temporary intrusion of a CD-mounted Cygwin. Of course,
if the host machine and its owner have never heard of Cygwin, and do not
care about it, this is not an issue. If the case is otherwise, then one
needs to take care in any CD-based session that the host version is properly
un-mounted, the CD-version mounted, used then un-mounted, followed by a
proper re-mount of the host version.

It sounds from what you say that these considerations will not apply. So the
main requirement is to build your Cygwin tree so that it contains all you
want. (All the .exe's, all the .dll's, ...) This can be achieved through
trial and error (try rxvt.exe, whoops! it turns out to need libW11.dll, ...)
or by installing a tailored Cygwin using setup.exe, and copying that to CD.

The only question of significance that remains is what to do with the files
/etc/profile, /etc/passwd, /etc/group, ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bashrc; and what
command you use to start the whole thing off when the CD is inserted in its
drive.

An answer that works is: delete the first 4, put the line

unset HISTFILE

plus anything else you want (aliases, etc) in ~/.bashrc =
/home/whatever/.bashrc (this stops bash trying to write a history file to an
unwriteable CD) and start the whole thing off with a .bat file containing

@h:\bin\mount -bfu h:/ /
@h:\bin\mount -bfu h:/bin /usr/bin
@h:\bin\mount -bfu h:/lib /usr/lib
@h:\bin\bash -rcfile /.init

where h: is your CD drive letter and where the file /.init (which is on the
CD) contains the lines

export SHELL=/bin/bash
export HOME=/home/whatever
export PATH=~/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:
export TMPDIR=c:/tmp

(The 4th line is there because I found that for one of my applications I
needed earlier to have created a directory c:\tmp on the host HD, and then
set TMPDIR to match. So, sorry, this recipe is not foolproof for all
applications, because they might have different minor requirements,
depending how they are built. But at least it provides a starting point. And
the one I am talking about was a non-Cygwin-supplied invader: Cygwin is so
tightly constructed that there may be no annoying outstanding requirements
of this type. I also have ~ = /home/user as a conveniently bland HOME name
that so far hasn't caused any problems, but you might prefer some different
/home/whatever as indicated above.)

Hope this helps. It might do as something to start off with, and if you can
use a write-able drive rather than burning experimental CDs as you develop
your portable version, so much the better. (Easier.)

Fergus

It's a Windows thing.  By default, children of a parent automatically
inherit the permissions of the parent.  You can change that of course but 
your previous attempts at "fiddling" with the install tree didn't fare 
very well so I wouldn't recommend you do more experimentation here (unless
you plan to live with the consequences and/or find the solutions to the 
problems you cause).  The two options that I think will work the best for 
you is to simply change the permissions globally to add write and execute 
permissions where appropriate or to simply remove your current 
installation and reinstall, making sure that the directory under which 
you're installing Cygwin has reasonably open permissions.

Q: cygwin setup problems

[enok]

When I run setup.exe to install new packages the process hangs when
copying the files into the file system. The reason is that setup creates
all directories and files as write protected (dr--r--r--) and then fails
to fill the newly created directory with files (because of the write
protection).

What is the problem?

My platform is Windows 2000 with NTFS file system. I use CYGWIN=ntsec.
After installing the initial cygwin packages I noticed that all files
had protection rwxrwxrwx. I changed that of course and now all files are
instead created r--r--r--. Why? Please help!

sshd and SSH sentinel don't get along

[e-bone]

I'm just posting this as an update.

A while back I was whining about my sshd giving some sort of "entry
point" error upon loading.

Well, I checked my cygwin version as recommended and that was all fine
and dandy.

On a whim I removed SSH Sentinel (an IPSec client for windows), and
everything worked fine after that.

Note, SSH Sentinel is really a misnomer (it is NOT a ssh client or
server) , but rather an IPSec client.

Everything worked after that ... dont know why ... but i'm happy.

Beyond the obvious?  Cygwin programs fill out the structures needed to

Cant get list of download sites

[adrian]

... says the setup program, which is funny because Im using a simple ISDN connection 
from an NT box which worked well enough to get me that far. I tried "Direct 
Connection" and "IE5 settings" but there is no proxy. I also tried stopping the 
firewall. Is the an explanation, solution or workaround, like just downloading the 
whole thing by hand or telling setup.exe on the command line which mirror to use?

A possible explanation is that I just got called a spambot for trying to read the 
manual, which I didnt take personally, at least, not to  the extent of mentioning 
words my mother wouldn't, but consoled myself with the explanation that IE could look 
like a spambot, especially after I'd switched off the friewall.

Thanks in advance for any help, especially if you also CC it to adrian at

"CD launcing" has been discussed thoroughly on the list. A big part of the
solution is to use /bin/mount with -m and -A flags.

You better google on "site:cygwin.com +cygwin +cd" or some such (Err... this
was a lame attempt on that search criteria, I know) than rely on me
remembering details.

 =-) there is no problem with _my_ command. It was to show _when_ there is a
problem - and what the problem consists of.

 Try "ls -l *" in the same directory as you did your test in. That will give
you an error message, due to the limit mentioned earlier in this thread.

All DLLs used by a Win32 executable are listed in the executable.

DJGPP is a DOS compiler that produces DOS executables that can not use
DLLs (at least using standard implicit loading), so there is nothing
to report in this case.

cygcheck & executable files of other compilers

[Alex Vinokur]

===
Windows 2000 Professional
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 1.5.4(0.94/3/2)
cygcheck version 1.38
===


I applied the cygcheck utility to executable files which have been created
  with using other compilers (not gcc cygming special).

First. Digital Mars C/C++ Compiler.
$ cygcheck a.exe
Found: .\a.exe
a.exe
  C:\WINNT\System32\KERNEL32.DLL
C:\WINNT\System32\NTDLL.DLL
  C:\WINNT\System32\USER32.DLL
C:\WINNT\System32\GDI32.DLL

Second. GNU gpp compiler (DJGPP).
$ cygcheck a.exe
Found: .\a.exe
a.exe


Questions.
  1. How can the cygcheck utility know about DLLs in the Digital Mars executable file?
  2. Why doesn't the cygcheck utility know about DLLs in the DJGPP executable file?

Shell keyword 'time' and gcc -mno-cygwin

[Alex Vinokur]

===
Windows 2000 Professional
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 1.5.4(0.94/3/2)
gcc version 3.3.1 (cygming special)
===

I compiled some program with Cygwin and Mingw32 interfaces.

$ g++ fib.cpp -o fib_cyg

$ g++ fib.cpp -mno-cygwin -o fib_nmg

$ time -p fib_cyg th 1 > zzz
real 0.48
user 0.44
sys 0.03

$ time -p fib_nmg th 1 > zzz
real 0.39
user 0.02
sys 0.04


We can see that user-time-used for executable file with Mingw32 interface is nearly 
equal 0.
It seems that that is not in line with the reality.

Any explanation?

P.S. I think the problem doesn't depend on the specific program.
 Nevertheless the attachment contains the fib.cpp file.

Re: pthread problem with latest cygwin dll snapshot

[Arash Partow]

Hi Thomas,

I'll try doing as you have suggested, I'll rebuild the dll and see how
things turn out from there.
One thing I forgot to mention in my previous e- mail, was that when you run
multiple instances of ThreadTest, when they start crashing, the Error
Windows that pop-up all have the same "referenced memory" location. I just
thought this is rather strange.
1 thing though, did you try piping the stdout to tee? I found that doing
that was a sure way of crashing it.
Anywayz thanx heaps for the help so-far I'll get back to you after I get
the building done.


Regards

Arash Partow

Hi Arash,

i downloaded TaskInfo, installed it on a 2,5 GHz P4 W2000 box, tried free 
RAM (slow and fast) and your Test did not crash. I rebuilded the cygwin DLL 
while your test was running, still no crash.

If you are interested to dig a little deeper download the snapshot source 
and build your own dll.

The steps are:

1. Download cygwin-src-20031028.tar.bz2
2. Create a directory /usr/src/cygwin. Go to that directory.
3. Untar the source tarball (tar -xpjvf cygwin-src-20031028.tar.bz2)
4. Create a directory named BUILD.
5. Goto BUILD
6. set CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS to '-g' (export CFLAGS='-g'; export 
CXXFLAGS='-g'; export LDFLAGS='-g')
7. configure (../cygwin-snapshot-20031028-1/configure --prefix=/usr)
8. make

There is no need for a make install, just copy new-cygwin1.dll from 
i686-pc-cygwin/winsup/cygwin into your /cygwin/bin directory as cygwin1.dll 
after you have terminated all cygwin programs.

If you see a crash in the cygwin dll you can use addr2line to get the 
source line (addr2line -e /bin/cygwin1.dll "address", for example addr2line 
-e /bin/cygwin1.dll 0x61061756).

If you want to debug the dll you might want to set the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS 
to '-O0 -g' before you configure. To set breakpoints in the cygwin DLL 
start 'gdb TestThread', set a breakpoint at main and start your app. After 
it stops at main you can set breakpoints at functions in the cygwin dll (b 
pthread_create for example).

Good luck.

There is no deterministic way to make it crash, just that it will

version of the TaskInfo program I use, during its trial period everything
is enabled so you will be able to do the Free RAM (fast/slow) and also
maybe you can do something like play an mpeg in the background, and maybe
use the winsock by doing something on the net. One very unusual yet
interesting thing I noticed whilst running the ThreadTest, was that a 
split
second before it crashes, TaskInfo reports a huge amount of memory being
acquired by ThreadTest, by huge I mean around 100mb+ the amount is never
the same, but I've never seen it go below 100Mb, I'm sure there is
something wrong happening for something like that to be occur. the only
problem is I can't figure out whether the memory is being requested by the
cygwin layer on behalf of ThreadTest or by the cygwin layer for its own
purpose. I can be sure that no where in the ThreadTest do I acquire 100MB+
of memory from the OS.

Another thing i've noticed about the test crashing, is that even though 
its
a console app, windows barks an error, via an error window with the title
"ThreadTest.exe - Application Error", in the body of the window it says:
The instruction at "some mem address" refrenced memory at "some mem 
address".
The memory could not be "read".

But the strange thing is that even after this error window appears the
ThreadTest seems to run for some time still, you can see threads being
created, but after a certain amount of time that too stops. When you try 
to
close the error window down, another pops up under it, I think there is an

says
the last call before the crash was to the cygwin1.dll. I've done my 
testing
with both debug on and off and different levels of optimization, in all

All you need to do is be doing something and it will crash the more

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: gawk-3.1.3-4

[Corinna Vinschen]

I've updated the version of GNU awk to 3.1.3-4.

This is a bugfix.  Due to an unfortunate definition of INTMAX_MIN
in stdint.h (which will be fixed by an upcoming Cygwin release)
gawk potentially misprinted negative integer values in calls to
printf/sprintf.  This release is a mere rebuild using the fixed
INTMAX_MIN definition.


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.

If you have general questions or comments, please send them to the
Cygwin mailing list at: "cygwin at cygwin dot com".  I would appreciate
it if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.

I've tried some other combinations for running the ThreadTest, in one

them crashed other instances would also crash, this lead me to believe that
only 1 instance of cygwin dll is ever loaded into memory and that apps
using it look for one in the memory first before deciding whether or not
they should be loading the cygwin1.dll, One theory I came up with was that
the other instances that were crashing were in someway sequentially related
to the first instance that crashed meaning that either the instance that
crashed and instances that were executed prior to it crashed, or that the
instance and instances executed after it crashed, this theory turned out to
be false, when I copied the ThreadTest a

Correct.  I've uploaded a new gawk package.  The definition of INTMAX_MIN
has been fixed in current CVS.

There is a 32KB length limit on the command line. This is imposed on us by
the underlying "OS" - i.e. not likely to change.
To check how long your command line would be, try something like this:

$ find -type f -name 'send.log.*' |
(
  read f;
  cc=-1;
  echo "";
  while [ ! -z "$f" ];do
cc=$(( 1 + $cc + $( echo "$f" | wc -c) ));
echo -e "\e[F$cc\e[K";read f;
  done;
  echo -e "\e[F$cc chars"
)
Remember to add the length of e.g. "ls -l " (note space).

If this gives a number larger than...

$ echo $(( ( 1 << 15 ) -1 ))
32767
... then you're "outta luck".

I try your command on a Microsoft XP pro and I win

Works for me on 98.  I don't have a 95 system for testing.  Do you
have more than one cygwin1.dll in the path?  Please send cygcheck
