Re: Bash login slow after upgrade to cygwin 1.7

On cygwin 1.5 it was only around 1 second. I captured some logs from the startup using this process: - Open cmd shell cd C:\cygwin\bin bash --login -i -x 1> C:\startlog.txt 2>&1 The log is attached. I don't see anything strange except that it seems pretty long. The same process on cygwin 1.5 gives much less output. I can provide that log if needed. Any ideas? It's the loading of all the bashcompletion scripts. Move the directory /etc/bash_completion.d away and you'll see it's a lot faster. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Re: cygwin1.7 and Eclipse CDT?

The CDT looks for Cygwin in the registry. But Cygwin 1.7 doesn't use the registry anymore. It works if you upgrade from 1.5 to 1.7 but not if you install 1.7 from a clean Windows or in another location.

Same thing with executing binary (I was able to execute a binary file copied on the share even though I couldn't execute scripts)? Most of Cygwin relys on the permission checks of the underlying OS.

Note that it doesn't do a simple POSIX permission bit check, rather it calls an OS function asking "does *this* account have the right to execute *that* file?" That should result in the most consistent behaviour, as far as Windows consistency goes. Cygwin can't also check with an account with the same login and password? I assume that's what Windows does and why I'm allowed, as a user LOCAL\nahor, to access the share that belongs exclusively to the user DOMAIN\nahor. I doubt that assumption would hold up to much scrutiny. Local and domain users, despite how similar the name and/or password might be, don't have any relationship to each other. There's a unique ID generated for a user of either type so there's no definitive way to correlate one user ID with another, even if that was desirable. I think you'll find that you have access to the share because you've been authenticated to use it, regardless of whether you're using the local or domain version of your login. But that has little bearing on the script in question. Since Windows doesn't see the script as executable, asking it for help in this matter wouldn't be useful, no matter who the user is when the question is asked. Maybe you're right but why can I execute a binary then? I copied notepad.exe on the share. I set its permissions to 700. I can then launch notepad without problem. But with scripts, that doesn't work. So somewhere, in Windows or in Cygwin, something must behave differently. Could it then be that Windows doesn't check the execute permission when executing from a share?

Can't execute scripts from a samba share with 1.7

bash completion
Hi, I have the following prompt in bash (Gentoo style): PS1='\[\033[01;[EMAIL PROTECTED] \[\033[01;34m\]\w $ \[\033[00m\]' When I press to get the list of possible completion on the command line, I have some extra characters added to the display: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cd /c/ Documents and Settings/RECYCLER/ cygwin/ tmp/ System Volume Information/ Program Files/ WINDOWS/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cd /c// or [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cd t test/ tmp/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ cd t t If I remove the last escape sequence, the first example works fine but the second displays "tt". If I remove the last two escape sequences, both work fine. The default cygwin prompt works fine but if I remove the "\n" before the "$" sign, I get similar issues. I think I saw a mention of a bash 3.0 bug like this more than a year ago but I can't google it anymore. Also this prompt works fine in Gentoo (bash 3.1.16(1)) and in Fedora Core 4 (bash 3.00.16(1)) so it would point to a bug in cygwin (or Fedora and Gentoo have a patch to fix it). Any suggestion?
