Mkdir seems to be losing the permissions when creating a directory under cron (even though NTSec is set on the service). Zip/Unzip do not find files or directories created on the cron script (the bash seem to find them okay though).
cron_diagnose.sh 1.5 returns no errors. Here is a sample cron script that reproduces my problem: ----------bustcron.sh ------------------------- echo "Cygwin: $CYGWIN" mkdir -p $TMP/nested/source mkdir -p $TMP/nested/dest echo "Creating temp file.." echo "Something" > $TMP/nested/source/dude.txt echo "Temp file contents:" cat $TMP/nested/source/dude.txt echo "Trying to Zip" zip $TMP/nested/azip.zip $TMP/nested/source/dude.txt echo "Trying to unzip" unzip -d $TMP/nested/dest $TMP/nested/azip.zip --------------------------------------------- This runs fine under my user directory. But under cron, it breaks as follows: ------------------------- Cygwin: ntsec Creating temp file.. Temp file contents: Something Trying to Zip zip warning: name not matched: /cygdrive/c/WINNT/TEMP/nested/source/dude.txt zip error: Nothing to do! (/cygdrive/c/WINNT/TEMP/nested/azip.zip) Trying to unzip checkdir: cannot create extraction directory: /cygdrive/c/WINNT/TEMP/nested/dest --------------------- Note that ntsec is already set on the cygwin variable. My "Real" production script is trying to unzip something created on a linux box (no ZIP stage). I went through the source of Unzip and it looks like MKDIR() is returning -1 (hence the "cannot create extraction dir" message). Since the directory was already created with mkdir -p, maybe it exists but the cygdll can't read from it? Could there be a problem with the -p option of mkdir? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This is part of a build automation system that requires windows and I don't want to use batch files :-) Thanks! - David Martinez -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
