I have modified my Cygwin services definitions to do Delayed Autostart and Preshutdown, with appropriate Windows service and inter-dependencies, shut them down and restart them in local scheduled tasks run under SYSTEM account on appropriate events and on demand, and restart them in a late local permanent postinstall script /etc/postinstall/zp_z0_l_start_services.dash after setup. Some combination of these techniques may allow your sysadmin to set things up for you to control these services without their intervention. -- Take care.

Keith, There should be only one of them running, unless you have multiple Cygwin installations, then there can be per-installation instances. Restart of all Cygwin processes was always required (because the main DLL may not be properly replaced while it's in use by any process) -- but a reboot usually took care of that quite well...

So an explicit restart of cygserver is now required (and now I have to ask sysadmin to do that for me at work -- sigh). And the problem, as I understand it, is that cygserver caches the user IDs these days. When mintty starts up, it looks up your account, and [with new DLL in place but no restart] it can't! The message that shows up momentarily in that disappearing window says exactly so, "This account is currently not available", only if we can read this fast. No problems at home, though :-) HTH, Anton Lavrentiev Contractor NIH/NLM/NCBI -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

So I configured with -DWITH_EXAMPLES=OFF and I got the base library compiled. Here, I verified that the macros for CMake are generated correctly with the right names and paths.

Re: [EXTERNAL] Updated cygwin this morning, mintty window flashes briefly and quits
Anton, There were two cygserver instances listed, one had a PID and the other one had N/A for the PID. I terminated both of them and now I can launch Cygwin64 term. Are there any configs I should check for cygserver to make sure there aren't two of them running? I've never seen this problem before.

Updated cygwin this morning, mintty window flashes briefly and quits
Downloaded the latest setup-x64.exe from the Cygwin website, ran a normal Cygwin update this morning on my Windows 10 system, rebooted after updates. Click the Cygwin64 Terminal icon on the desktop, opens briefly then closes. Suggested troubleshooting steps?

CMake support into expat-2.4.1 is broken.
Hello, I tried to build the latest stable of OpenColorIO but I got an error because the support for CMake into expat is broken. I'm getting this message: CMake Error at /usr/lib/cmake/expat-2.4.1/expat.cmake:74 (message): The imported target "expat::expat" references the file "/usr/lib/libexpat.so.1.8.1" but this file does not exist. which is true, as you can see by inspecting the file /usr/lib/cmake/expat-2.4.1/expat-noconfig.cmake. As you can see by looking here: https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/tree/master/expat/cmake/autotools this is a bug of Expath because "expat-noconfig__linux.cmake.in" is installed rather than expat-noconfig__windows.cmake.in. Here: https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/pull/546 I made a PR to the master of Expat for fixing this issue. I was wondering if a newer packaged could be published with a newer stable version of Expat (when it will be released with this fix) or by updating the cygport file by including the same patch. Thank you very much.

mpg123 delayed reaction to keyboard
Hi, mpg123 reacts to keyboard commands after a ~3 second delay while playing but not when paused i.e. when spacebar is pressed while music is playing it stops after 3 seconds but when spacebar is pressed again it resumes playing instantaneously. No such issue on linux with the same 1.25.10. Changing buffer size (-b) has no effect. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
