Failure of the inetutils-server.sh postinstall script

2015-04-13 Thread Bogdan
Hi,

I installed the inetutils package but not inetutils-server. The installer then 
executed the inetutils-server.sh. The script then failed because the getent 
package, which I presume is a prerequisite for inetutils-server but not 
inetutils, had not been installed. I hope this information is useful to you.

Cheers,
Bogdan

64-bit coreutils missing hostname utility

Hi,

The 64-bit port of the coreutils package is missing the hostname utility.

Re: [ITP] asa 1.1

2013-09-11 Thread Bogdan
Base is definitely not the right category.  Conversion for output by

Fortran programs seems like a pretty small target audience.


This doesn't seem to be available in at least two popular linux
distributions so you'll need to get votes.


While I agree that it's of limited value, I thought the fact that it's defined 
by POSIX might be of some relevance. At this point, I probably should not say 
that I was also going to offer to package SCCS. :)

Cheers,
Bogdan


[ITP] asa 1.1

2013-09-10 Thread Bogdan
Hi,

Unless anyone else wants to, I volunteer to package and maintain an 
implementation of the POSIX asa utility. The implementation I have in mind was 
written by Thomas Koenig and its home is mentioned in the setup.hint file, 
below. It is a Fortran runtime utility that interprets carriage-control 
characters.

setup.hint:

# This utility comes from ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/devel/lang/fortran
sdesc: ASA Carriage control conversion for output by Fortran programs
category: Base

I don't know whether Base is the right category but it's pretty similar to what 
dos2unix does, the latter being part of Base.

Cheers,
Bogdan



64-bit Cygwin - Missing packages and mintty issue

2013-09-04 Thread Bogdan
Hi,

I've just installed the 64-bit Cygwin port but encountered a few problems.

First of all, there seems to be a problem with the mintty package. While it's 
marked as installed in the setup, /bin/mintty does not exist so I cannot fire 
up the terminal. I suspect the package has not been installed.

Secondly, at least the following packages are missing (they don't even show up 
in the setup's database): inetutils, pax, time, and (according to someone else, 
I haven't checked) lftp. I suspect others are missing as well.

Cheers,
Bogdan


Expect script works in 1.5 but fails in 1.7

2010-02-18 Thread Bogdan Nicolau



  
Hi,

I have a simple Expect script that starts as:

set timeout -1
spawn ftp a.b.c.d
match_max 10
expect  *Name (a.b.c.d): 
send -- anonymous\r
expect  *Password:
send -- anonymous\r

This is fine in Cygwin 1.5 on my PC (installed in Nov 2008) yet on some other 
PCs where I installed, last week, Cygwin 1.7 it fails at the Password 
introduction. I tried more combinations of stty echo and/or raw but without 
success.
Either it hangs without prompting the Password: or it prompts and gets the 
first character but the rest of chars are echoed on a new line and the login 
fails.

Thank you very much!
Bogdan Nicolau

possible cygwin_select problem: rtorrent freezes under cygwin 1.7

2009-11-30 Thread Bogdan
Hi,

I've compiled and installed a console torrent client rTorrent 0.8.5 under 
cygwin, following instructions here: http://rtwi.jmk.hu/wiki/rTorrentOnWindows

The problem is that rTorrent freezes for random-length periods of time with 
100% CPU use.
That same version of rTorrent does not freeze on that same computer on Debian 
GNU/Linux.

I have posted more details (including strace and gdb debugging attempts) here: 
http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/ticket/1163#comment:7
It appears that FreeBSD 6.x might have a similar problem, if that is relevant.

I will be glad to provide more information.

Regards,
Bogdan

Running cygwin on multiple computers from a shared network drive

2005-10-14 Thread Bogdan Calmac
I want to keep a cygwin installation on a shared network drive and
then then use it from any computer. Has anybody accomplished this? Can
you point me to some instructions?

I would guess there is some setup required, such as loading the mount
points in registry. Anything else?

Thanks you.

1.5.11: resuming a suspended sleep results in undelivered signal 19

2004-09-19 Thread Bogdan Vacaliuc
Greetings,

Pierre Humblet discovered this and since I had a trace of it, encouraged me to post it.

A suspended sleep call is resumed, but does not exit at the expiration time.

$ sleep 20
^Z
[1]+  Stopped sleep 20
$ fg
sleep 20

...forever...

In a separate shell, the sleep is straced after it is started but before the ^Z is 
performed.  (see also attached)

snip
  146 16802759 [sig] sleep 4236 interruptible: pc 0x77F8287E, h 0x77F8,

 Indeed it does. I have tried a couple of times without any 
 hickups. With 1.5.11 a have not been able to get my testcase 
 to even pass once if straceing. With this snapshot I now have 
 5 consecutive successes (and no failures).
 
 I'm afraid I don't understand the issue and why the temporary

 probably better suited to notify the bash maintainer. (If the

 BTW, thanks for helping out with debugging!

RE: 1.5.10: expr + configure failure + testcase (also on 1.5.11-1)

2004-09-14 Thread Bogdan Vacaliuc
Chris, Pierre,

 I was thinking the same thing but AFAIK, ash doesn't have the 
 pid recycling problem.

In my failure cases, configure is run under bash.

I have also captured (finally?) an strace under the ~current cygwin (attached).  The 
details are largely the same as Peter's last
attachment, to which Igor remarked FWIW, expr.exe does seem to exit with the right 
exit code, but is later zombified, which doesn't
sound quite right.

Actually, its ok for it to be zombified, because the parent didn't happen to be 
waiting for the child at the time that the child
exited.

 Pierre's observation that error text is output by the parent shell *before* the 
 expr command even executes was an inspiration.

So it seems like the parent shell decides its going to exit after forking but before 
waiting on the expr process.  This is
consistent across all my straces as well as Peter's.  In my attached trace, this is 
between lines 582 and 750; I also noticed the
following:

   84 16461744 [main] bash 1048 close: close (1)
 1378 16461829 [main] bash 2028 close: close (1)

On line 725 and 726.  By the time my trace got to line 750, the parent shell had 
stated to output the error text (53 characters in
my case).  I have another trace that exhibits this too.  Peter's trace does not have 
this.

In my trace (not Peter's) there are also some lines like:

  324 16458452 [main] bash 1048 fhandler_base::set_no_inheritance: DuplicateHandle 
failed, The parameter is incorrect.
  237 16458689 [main] bash 1048 fhandler_base::set_close_on_exec: set close_on_exec 
for /dev/console to 1

In the time between the fork and the beginning of the error write, but this is not 
unique to the trace and it was handled apparently
ok previously in the script.


 Wasn't there a registry value that controlled how pids were 
 allocated? I can't find anything appropriate in google.

I looked for something about this in M$ knowledge base.  I didn't find that, but I 
found this:

Hi Peter,

 Yes, the new trace is with cygwin1.dll 1.5.11-1, the old one 
 was with 1.5.10-3, sorry if I didn't mention that...

No, that's fine.  It would have been significant if you *had not* upgraded and yet 
produced that failure.

Chris,

Ok.  Running 09/14/04 snapshot is looking *good* so far.  I stopped the test script at 
150 passes.

I'm starting my configure/build/redo test and will let that run overnight.  I'll check 
in tomorrow AM and report on that.  1
successful configure/build so far.

Thanks!

2004-09-14 Thread Bogdan Vacaliuc
Pierre,

 FYI, I lauched that script last evening, it's now at 
 iteration 6441. That's on NT4 with a 2 day old cygwin dll 
 built from cvs.
 
 I have seen all the latest e-mails in this thread and the plea 
 to use the new snapshot.

So you are not using the new snapshot, yet do not see the failure, correct?

Chris Johns on the RTEMS list reported that my configure line did not fail on his 
MinGW system as readily as his configure line; his
line fails just as well on my system, so we've adopted it as the default now.

Please replace the fail() with the following in test-configure:

fail () {

${configure_test} -n \
--prefix=/opt/rtems \
--with-multisubdir=m68000 \
--with-multisrctop= \
--with-multibuildtop= \
--prefix=/opt/rtems \
--host=m68k-rtems \
--build=i686-pc-mingw32 \
--target=m68k-rtems \
--enable-multilib \
--enable-doc \
--enable-cxx \
--enable-posix \
--enable-networking \
--disable-tests \
--disable-itron \
--with-target-subdir=m68k-rtems \
--exec-prefix=/opt/rtems/m68k-rtems \
--cache-file=/dev/null \
build_alias=i686-pc-mingw32 \
host_alias=m68k-rtems \
target_alias=m68k-rtems \
CC='m68k-rtems-gcc --pipe -m68000' \
--cache-file=/dev/null

}

and make another run, hopefully *before* you install the snapshot.

So far on the rtems-list, reports of the configure problem have implicated Win98/WinME 
and Win2K.  No failure was reported
MinGW/WinXP.  I'm still waiting to hear from others.

By the way, I never got a chance to respond to your request for a simpler test case.  
Believe me, I tried.  The exhaustive/iterative
method was the best I could do to come close to quickly returning a failure if the 
problem existed.  On my system, I'd have a better
than 1:2 chance of getting a failure, but other people reported different results.

It would *never* fail, if all you did was a few expr and tests.  The whole configure 
script machinery appears necessary to setup the
failure mode.

Thanks,

-bogdan

RE: 1.5.10: expr + configure failure + testcase (also on 1.5.11-1)

2004-09-12 Thread Bogdan Vacaliuc
Hello again,

After (finally?!) noticing that a new release of the cygwin.dll was made on Sept. 4 
and being encouraged by the line:

- Fix mysterious configure script premature exit.  (Pierre Humblet)

I decided to check against the latest public release.  The problem continues to 
persist, unfortunately.

I created a simplified testcase, by realizing that a simple configure.ac will let 
autoconf generate a suitable configure script.
This auto-generated configure script exhibits the argument parsing failure as readily 
as any script taken from a build environment.
It is also attached (as text this time, sorry for all the compressed business I mucked 
with previously).

Here is the configure.ac file needed for autoconf:

[/jail/cygwin-1.5.11.1-std] cat configure.ac
AC_PREREQ(2.57)
AC_INIT([expr-configure],[1.5.11-1],[cygwin at cygwin dot com])
# for the purpose of this test, getting here is a success
exit 0

To generate the configure script, just run 'autoconf'.  The command for configure that 
exhibits the failure is:

./configure -n \
--target=i386-rtems \
--enable-rtemsbsp=386pc \
--host=i686-pc-cygwin \
--build=i686-pc-cygwin \
build_alias=i686-pc-cygwin \
host_alias=i686-pc-cygwin \
target_alias=i386-rtems \
--cache-file=/dev/null

It doesn't happen all the time, of course.  The *extremely curious* thing is that 
simply removing the '--enable-rtemsbsp=386pc'
appears to make the configure script work all the time.

I have experimented with reordering the arguments, putting '--cache-file=/dev/null' at 
the top, etc.  It is easy to make the problem
go away.  This sequence seems to cause the problem most quickly.

While performing the above tests in my chroot jails, I observed a new failure mode:

[/jail/cygwin-1.5.11.1-std] ./test-configure
*** CREATE configure.ac ***
*** GENERATE configure ***
Running using function fail()...
*** TEST 0 ***
*** TEST 1 ***
*** TEST 1 FAILS ***
configure: error: invalid variable name: build_alias

[/jail] chroot /jail/cygwin-1.5.11.1-std /bin/bash -l
$ ./test-configure
Running using function fail()...
*** TEST 0 ***
*** TEST 0 FAILS ***
configure: error: sources are in /, but `cd /' does not work

This does not occur, if I replace /bin/bash in the jail with a locally compiled 
bash.exe (based on 2.05b, that has the RECYCLES_PIDS
defined):

[/jail] chroot /jail/cygwin-1.5.11.1-bash205b /bin/bash -l
$ ./test-configure
Running using function fail()...
*** TEST 0 ***
*** TEST 1 ***
*** TEST 2 ***
*** TEST 3 ***
*** TEST 4 ***
*** TEST 5 ***
*** TEST 6 ***
*** TEST 7 ***
*** TEST 8 ***
*** TEST 8 FAILS ***
configure: error: invalid variable name: build_alias

Rather, the issue we are pursuing occurs.  What is interesting, is that in the 'std' 
case above, if one keeps calling the script,
one can get the 'invalid variable name' error *instead* of the 'sources are in...' 
error.  This suggests that the two are possibly
related and 'RECYCLES_PIDS' has some bearing on the real issue.

Anyway, the attached script (test-configure) will create the above configure.ac, 
generate configure (via. autoconf), and run the
above line over and over until failure.  I am also attaching cygcheck.out for my 
environment as it now exists.

Thanks to anyone looking at this; even if simply to say 'yup, it's a problem', or 'no, 
you are wrong about this...'

Best Regards,

-bogdan


p.s. For a chroot jail, the following programs are required at a minimum:

$ ls /bin
bash.execygintl-2.dll   cygpcreposix.dll  ls.exe sleep.exe
cat.exe cygintl-3.dll   cygwin1.dll   mkdir.exe  sort.exe
chmod.exe   cygintl.dll date.exe  pwd.exetail.exe

cygiconv-2.dll  cygpcre.dll expr.exe  sed.exewc.exe
cygintl-1.dll   cygpcreposix-0.dll  grep.exe  sh.exe

$ ls /etc
profile

$ cat /etc/profile

1.5.10: expr + configure failure + testcase

2004-09-11 Thread Bogdan Vacaliuc
Greetings,

The RTEMS project has also experienced the configure/expr problem over the
last few weeks.  A number of people have been working on it, and I would
like to present our findings as well as offer a test case that exposes the
problem fairly readily.

As Igor has deduced in
(http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2004-08/msg01339.html), the failure
mode is an incorrect interpretation of the exit status from invocations of
'expr' in configure.test.  The actual call to 'expr' produces the correct
output and exit status.  When the failure occurs, the appropriate exit
status of the 'expr' call is non-zero; however, it is incorrectly
interpreted as zero, causing the configure script to exit prematurely.

This was evidenced by running the test with the 'expr' wrappered in a script
to log the arguments, output and exit status of each 'expr' invocation.
 
This failure is not consistent; it takes many iterations for the effect to
be realized.  The failure also never occurs if the configure.test script is
executed under strace.  The failure does not necessarily occur in the same
place within the configure script.  The failure has not been shown to occur
on a native GNU/Linux system to this date.  It only occurs on PC/Cygwin
systems.

As a result, trapping the error typically involves running multiple
iterations.  Attached, I offer a pair of scripts designed to exhibit the
failure.  The attached archive contains the following files:

configure.test

This script was extracted from the RTEMS build enviroment and pared down to
avoid requiring the entire build context.  It is observed that the failure
occurs in the OPTION=VALUE processing of the configure script.

test-drive

This script invokes configure.test under a variety of iterative and
environmental controls.  The scripts are suitable for execution in a chroot
jail with just the /bin (cp -r /bin /jail/bin) and /tmp (mkdir /jail/tmp),
as needed for bash.  Execute '$ ./test-drive help' to get details on the
options as well as some summary on my current thinking on this.

NOTE: it is not uncommon for the script to require on the order of 100
iterations to fail.

---

Summary of related threads and investigations performed to date:

1)
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=2435atid=102435func=detailaid=8
07543

Chris Johns filed a bug (with test scripts) in the MingGW project related to
the same configure issue.  In that filing, the failure presented under
Win98, did not appear to occur in WinXP, and was affected by the order of
options listed on the configure command line.

2) http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2004-08/msg01025.html

Peter Ekberg posted some work within the GGI project, and also posted some
links to similar issues found in other projects like Ethereal (circa
09/2003), KimDaBa (04/2004) and Cygwin itself (10/2003).  [The latter two
quickly degenerated OT, unfortunately...]

3) http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-02/msg01068.html
   and http://www.rtems.com/ml/rtems-users/2004/september/msg00036.html

Andrew DeFaria summarized a problem in Win32 desktop heap resources (circa
2002) that I initially explored (with brief success on my workstation and
Scott Newell's in msg00044.html of that same thread).  However, after
additional tests and more failure reports, I abandoned that track to
concentrate on the expr problem.  Nevertheless, manipulating these resources
appeared to affect the failure mode with all other things being equal.

[I should also mention at this point that it seemed to me that the scripting
failures increased in frequency after I killed the Explorer task (which
windows promptly respawns).  I have not restarted my workstation since that
time.  In anycase, this may simply be circumstantial]

4) http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-08/msg00449.html
   thru http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-08/msg00556.html

This relates to Manfred Spraul's patch for bash related to RECYCLES_PIDS.  I
have observed the failure to occur under (a)sh, and bash 2.04.5, 2.05b and
3.00.0 ( I compiled them all, including enabling the RECYCLES_PIDS for bash
2.05b ).  The one thing I was able to observe was that running under bash
3.00.0 had the least likelyhood of producing the error.  However, under long
running operations, the exact same failure occurred eventually.  [the script
above allows easy testing of different shells in chroot jails].

Some details related to my investigation of this can be found here
(http://www.rtems.com/ml/rtems-users/2004/september/msg00059.html).  I had
activated the tracing/logging in (a)sh looking at the modification/use of
the global exitstatus and oexitstatus.

---

I end with hopes that together the good people of Cygwin and the 'net can
come to an understanding of what this thing is.

-bogdan

mobile cygwin

2003-08-08 Thread Bogdan Czyz
Hi there,
I'm trying to create custom cygwin build (about 40MBs). I mean I'm trying to 
collect most of shell and file tools, and have at least cygwin sshd working. 
I'd like to have everything on cd and when needed copy all cygwin directory 
structure to hard disk (not only my private pc's disk but pc's disk I work 
on that day - I don't want to install cygwin on each pc I got to work on) 
and run all the utilities and use for instance sshd for port forwarding.
I'm in half way. I got all utilities working in place, batch files to add 
and remove registry entries for cygwin (to get proper mounting points from 
bash). Last thing I can't figure out is sshd. To be more specific passwd. 
I'd like to have one (or couple) user(s) that I can work with independently 
of system. I'd like to run sshd on machine I work on and I wouldn't like to 
worry about creating new /etc/passwd each time. I'd like to use one of 
defined users with known password and do what I need to do. Is that possible 
at all with cygwin?? user independently?? If you have any ideas, please 
advice.

Thanks in advance,
Bogdan
