bash status?
After instructing someone to upgrade to the newer version of bash to fix the problem with pid reuse, I see that bash-2.05b-17 is still in test state. I seem to recall that Pierre may have had more patches for bash beyond what is in bash-2.05b-17, although I don't see any in the cygwin-apps archives. Also what's happening with bash 3.0? cgf

I didn't complete my thought. The basic questions are: 1) Can bash-2.05b-17 be moved out of test? 2) Are there more patches in the wings? 3) What's the status of bash 3.0? and now, a meta question: 4) Do we still have a bash maintainer?

I tried my best. You could also provide cygcheck output as is suggested by http://cygwin.com/problems.html. cygcheck from the test box is attached. I thought it wouldn't be relevant, since I included all version numbers. Also, I modify the environment as the first thing when the script runs: SET CYGWIN=binmode check_case:relaxed codepage:ansi \ envcache notitle strip_title notty nontsec And also set PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the Cygwin 'bin' directory. Also, providing simple test cases which reproduce the problem would help. I really tried, but so far have not been able to produce a simple test case. My best guess right now is that it only occurs when load is high, or when the right timing conditions apply. I thought it was obvious that I include test cases for every bug where I'm able to produce one, especially since I posted one last week. Actually, I can't find the mail in the mailing list archives right now, although it is in my 'sent items'. Nobody replied to it either. Maybe it got blocked because of the attachments - it was a .sh script and a .bat script. Do you by any chance have some really dumb spam filter in place that blocks anything named eg. .bat ? :-) Subject of e-mail was testing snapshot, it mentioned 3 other bugs (something related to 'grep', something with sync_with_child). I'll try resending it, let me know if you'd rather try and find it in your (?) spam blocker. I just wasted some time trying to reproduce your environment since I assumed that you'd provided a script which could easily reproduce the problem and that this was a problem which was specific to the snapshot. I'm truly sorry. It is sort of specific to the snapshot, since the problem occurs at a different rate in older versions. Anyway, this sounds a lot like the bash problem which has been discussed here over the last several months (most heavily in the October time frame). If you aren't running bash-2.05b-17 then that's probably your problem. bash 3.0 is not good enough? I went through the archives for October (anything related to bash), but couldn't find anything that seems related to me. Would you mind pointing me in the right direction (subject, link, anything)?

Re: how do I know I already havr firewall, and how to set up down
First step is to go somewhere else. This is the wrong place for your issues, and you've already been told. Persisting to post irrelevant questions here will only make people ignore you and/or hate your guts. Trust me. It's an evil gang in here, and they will make you suffer. Support for Microsoft products such as the Windows XP firewall usually takes places on the public Microsoft newsgroups. Try microsoft.public.windows.networking.firewalls. Use Outlook Express or Mozilla Thunderbird or any other newsreader, and msnews.microsoft.com as your news server. Don't hesitate to contact your ISP if you can't make it work. When you post your first mail, copy/paste the output from netsh firewall show state and netsh firewall show config. That should give volunteers enough information to help you. shih lin wrote: in window xp home ed, it have a red heart with white cross on it , it seem is firewall is down. but I do not quite trust that, can I check from cygwin(or linux) how do I know I already havr firewall, and how to set up down eric -- 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/

Fwd: testing snapshot
Hi I sent the posting below to the list once, but apparently it was blocked. Here it is again. (test.bat renamed to see if that will get the message through..) Pointers, hints or help all graciously accepted :-). -Forwarded Message- Anybody have any idea how to pursue the bug quoted at the bottom? A few other bugs has occurred with 20050221, nothing serious though: 1. 'grep' returns exit code 0 as in found, but doesn't echo the found line to stdout. And in fact, the string that was being grepped for doesn't exist in the input, so the exit code (0) is an error. It's a bit hard to reproduce (same as the quoted bug) so far, but it seems to happen quite often.. 2. 'grep' occasionally returns error 139. This one is very easy to reproduce - let the attached script run for a couple of hours and see the output file. Not sure if this is a bug or not? What does error code 139 mean? 3. This has occurred once in a running script. Something similar often happens when CTRL-C is pressed in an interactive shell running some program. I haven't been able to reproduce it outside of the interactive shell yet. 1488 [main] bash 4428 sync_with_child: child 3276(0x118) died before initialization with status code 0x80 30328 [main] bash 4428 sync_with_child: *** child state waiting for longjmp agent.sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable David Dindorp wrote: So far a couple of things have popped up in testing.

system call
hi to all,
i have a problem with C system() call:
When i try to compile and execute a simple program like this:
int main()
{
system(dir);
return 0;
}
On CYGWIN shell it works without problems...but when i try to execute it
without cygwin enviroment (on dos shell) system call do not work and exit with
exit code 127.
What i should do? Thanks a lot for any help

Have you tried adding the -mno-cygwin option when you
compile the program. This should eliminate the need for the
cygwin environment at run time.

Re: getopt required_argument (Was Re: regtool - 1.8 - Core dump)
Well, it's just a matter of adding a check for
optarg being NULL and
printing an appropriate message (e.g.,
if (optarg == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, Missing key-value
separator\n);
usage();
}
).
Yup looks easy but I may better patch the DLL to use
some kind of fstab file which would it make complete
portable as now I'am sitting in front of a computer
which let's me run bash but not cmd - a.
However, the question is what should getopt's
behavior be if something
specified as a required_argument is missing?
It sould do the same thing as the long parameter
arguments imo.

Re: POSIX compliance of unlink(2)
On Feb 28 22:45, Eric Blake wrote: 1.5.12 and the latest snapshots allow unlinking a file contrary to POSIX rules. The addition of CYGWIN=traverse was not enough to fix this issue. Unlink is required to fail with EACCES if the file is contained in a directory without write permission. I've just tested this situation on XP SP2 and it turns out that when deleting a file, no traverse checking seems to be performed. The DeleteFile function even succeeds if the parent folder's ACL explicitely denies the permission to delete subfolders and files for owner, group and everyone. Furthermore, unlink should touch the ctime of the containing directory, and the ctime of the unlink'd file (if hard links remain after the unlink succeeds). In general, open(O_CREAT), link, rename, mkdir, and rmdir should touch the ctime of the containing directory when the directory's contents change. If we also touch ctime on the parent directory in all these cases, that will slow down Cygwin enourmously. Each of these actions would require to open the parent dir, set ctime, close parent dir. That sounds like a rather bad deal.

Re: Make a Shared Library using Makefile
hello, I am back here... In the journey of making SHARED dll's, i have been lost somewhere in my path... but during these days i found a post searched in google like this... You are using some classes which are kept in some library. It is not enough to add h-file with these classes, We need to add also library file for linker. The way we do it depends on the compiler. So need to add library name. Now question is how do I come to know that which libraries required to make shared dll's for my project project??..The error I have listed already in link below... http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-01/msg01282.html There we can see that with all functions [for example ..putlog(int,char*, ...)' which works like a printf statement] and all class declarations made by me are showing undefined reference to errors while compiling(I mean while ld goes to bind all linking datas ).

happened between the time I did a cvs update and the time I prepared a

some kind of fstab file which would it make complete
portable as now I'am sitting in front of a computer
which let's me run bash but not cmd - a.
This has been discussed, and, in fact, is a plan for the future. That was
one of the reasons using mount was suggested -- no matter where the
mounts are stored, mount will be guaranteed to do the right thing.
However, the question is what should getopt's
behavior be if something
specified as a required_argument is missing?
It sould do the same thing as the long parameter
arguments imo.
This was my bug -- the long options specified the argument as required,
but the short ones specified it as optional (two colons). Thanks to CGF
for fixing it.

On Mon, Feb 28, 2005 at 10:45:59PM +, Eric Blake wrote: 1.5.12 and the latest snapshots allow unlinking a file contrary to POSIX rules. The addition of CYGWIN=traverse was not enough to fix this issue. Unlink is required to fail with EACCES if the file is contained in a directory without write permission. $ mkdir a $ touch a/b $ chmod a-w a $ touch a/c# Correctly fails touch: cannot touch `a/c': Permission denied $ rm a/b # Oops, should have failed $ Furthermore, unlink should touch the ctime of the containing directory, and the ctime of the unlink'd file (if hard links remain after the unlink succeeds). In general, open(O_CREAT), link, rename, mkdir, and rmdir should touch the ctime of the containing directory when the directory's contents change. I'm getting a little concerned that we're focusing on a corner case of the POSIX implementation at the expense of speed. The reality is that the ctime setting in NTFS is not really the same thing as what is found in UNIX and trying to make it be the same thing is going to slow down cygwin. And, it might even confuse native windows apps. Unless there are actual user complaints about ctime handling, I don't think it makes sense to pursue this any further.

Which terminal? If the regular CMD window, clear works just fine (as
long as it's installed, see http://cygwin.com/packages/). If you use
bash, you can also try pressing Ctrl-L (which is the default mapping to
readline's clear-screen function and can be changed with bind).
cls is a DOS-ism, and won't work.
Well, typing Perl commands or sed scripts at the shell prompt won't work
either, but if you prepend the name of the appropriate command interpreter,
with suitable flags, like this:
cmd /c cls
it does work. If you wanna get _really_ portable, you can use COMSPEC, like
this:
`cygpath -u ${COMSPEC}` /c cls
and then it'll work on 9xMe as well as Nt2kXp
cheers,

These seemed to be configured already by the ssh-host-config program - Running the service under the local SYSTEM account produces output in /var/log/sshd.log - Running the service under any other account produces NO log file! - Permissions against sshd and required Cygwin libs aren't a problem (since I could runas 'sshd_server' and it works fine) - When I invoke the sshd process with RunAs, it's after establishing a bash shell - Permissions in /var/log allow users to write (tested with runas) With a little (actually a LOT) experimentation, it seems as though the 'sshd_server' user is having a hard time starting things up. When I run as SYSTEM, I get output in the log folder.. I just found new info today that may help pinpoint the problem. I did a test using the same service account 'sshd_server'. I created a service that ran cygcheck and ran the same using a login session. The most significant thing I found was a few of the environment variables were different. Namely: When run via a login session: CYGWIN = `nontsec' HOME = `C:\cygwin\var\empty' MAKE_MODE = `unix' PWD = `/var/empty' USER = `sshd_server' When run as a service (installed via. Cygrunsrv -I): CYGWIN = `nontsec' HOME = `C:\cygwin' So, I see a couple things funny here: - $HOME is wrong when logged in via cygrunsrv (It's set to /var/empty in passwd) - MAKE_MODE, PWD, and USER are missing! So, if anyone has any suggestions for correcting the environment under cygrunsrv, I would love to hear them! I have a hunch that this may be the root cause of my problem! (aka. We'd love to get this working soon!) :) Best regards, -Sean -- 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/

It compiled without issues but when I went to run some of the programs, a windows dialog box pops up showing the following message: The application failed to initialize properly (0xc005). Click on OK to terminate the application. see thread starting here: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg01101.html heh, I actually had that thread bookmarked. Anyway I took the suggestion and modified the libtool files. And it didn't work. I still got the same error message. What I did next was look for occurrences of const struct, and noticed some in the programs that I had problems with. xgettext was one program and the long options struct was defined with static const struct. When I removed the const from there and recompiled, the program worked. I tried this with the other programs that I was having problems with, and they all started working. I'm still baffled but I have the programs working now. -- 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/ Enjoy, Peter --- A Møøse once bit my sister -- 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/
