Since postinstall seemed to be a candidate for the hang,
I'm wondering if we could tap at the following code in script.cc
In run(), there is an infinite wait
WaitForSingleObject (pi.hProcess, INFINITE);
Should we use a wait period like 60s?
We could check the status & provide appropriate setup.log info?
Does post-texmf.sh take the longest to complete?
I haven't followed all the original threads on this issue,
so I could be way off target.
Regards,
rb
PS:
---- relevant piece of code script.cc::run() ----
BOOL createSucceeded = CreateProcess (0, cmdline, 0, 0, inheritHandles,
flags, 0, get_root_dir
().cstr_oneuse(),
&si, &pi);
if (createSucceeded)
WaitForSingleObject (pi.hProcess, INFINITE);
CloseHandle(pi.hProcess);
CloseHandle(pi.hThread);
