Re: setup crashing - fixed?
- Original Message - From: Corinna Vinschen [EMAIL PROTECTED] By explicitely expressing my wish to change the state by pointy clicky somewhere. Honestly, think of the current test installation of tetex and texmf which is 30 Megs. If the user actually chooses to go back to the curr version, it's his/her choice. If that happens while the user actually just wanted to update to the latest bazzoo-3.3-8 package it's pretty annoying. Which is the reason for the existence of the 'partial' screen - so that userscan see what is going to be done before it happens. Likewise if you downgrade a package, or hold it back, setup will try to upgrade it every time. We need more information about the users desire - to allow 'Holding' a package, or setting one package to 'test' and all the others to 'curr', but I've not had time to code that yet. Rob

One of these days, I have to look at the source and see exactly what I'm doing wrong. I'm embarrassed to admit that I haven't actually tried this under Windows yet but I can't imagine that bazzoo would work any differently under Cygwin than it does under Linux. It doesn't use any special stuff besides unix domain sockets, vfork, and setuid. I'm glad to see that there are other bazzoo users here.

Wierd keymappings and missing Meta
I have installed Cygwin/Xfree86 according to the instructions. As I live in the UK I got hold of a Xmodmap for the keymappings. I tried running % xmodmap Xmodmap.uk where Xmodmap.uk is the mapping file from a bash prompt. I now get rather wierd behaviour. In bash windows (and in xterms running telnet to a linux box) I find that shift-3 sends #CTRL-M so that # is entered to the prompt. Also my backspace key prints a ~. CTRL-H still backspaces though. However in xedit everthing works fine. Backspace backspaces and shift-3 prints a pound sign. Any suggestions? On a similar note (and possibly related) I can't seem to work out what my Meta key in Xedit is. I've tried pressing the ESC key and sending CTRL-], CTRL-[ and CTRL-@ before the other keypress. I don't make use of anything else that needs a Meta key so I haven't tried anything else. This didn't work before I got hold of a keymapping file and it doesn't work afterwards. Any help would be very much appreciated - I only really use cygwin/xfree as an X display but it doesn't work locally either. -- | Kirsty Hollingworth | This space is traditionally | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] |reserved for comments.| | | /* !-- % ; -- // -- */ | --
Re: Remote tasks sleeping after 'su'
I've been using Cygwin for a while now but am new to cygwin-xfree. I hope this question hasn't been answered before but I did check the archives and didn't find anything pertinent. I use this system to log into other systems (via ssh -X) and have the windows displayed on my cygwin-xfree desktop. If I run something as myself then everything is fine. If I log in, then 'su' to root, then run something the window never appears. If I look at 'top' then the task I just started is flagged as sleeping. This problem does not occur when using the putty/exceed Thanks for your responses guys. I have now had chance to do a little research using a Linux box in place of my Cygwin/XFree box and the end result is the same. Once I have su'd I can't expect X forwarding to work. Now I think about it, this is hardly strange. The only difference in the whole process was that I did actually get an error when using two Linux boxes and the task was terminated, unlike on the Cygwin/XFree setup where no error was received and the task simply went to sleep. Now I know that this is normal behaviour, I'll not try it again :-) Thanks again, Robert Haines.

Then try to login via XDMCP on the test network. If XDMCP works fine on the test network, then you have some sort of misconfiguration on your primary network (which is what I suspect). My net configuration is fairly simple. It is a local 10Base-T with 4 systems on it(Win2k, linux and 2 Win98). The Win2k is the firewall to Starband sat connection. The thur-put is around 75% 800Kbyte per seconds in both directions. Other network applications works flawlessly include XWin32 if I start it without XDMCP. Spray from Linux has zero packet drop as well. You still haven't told us the speed of the network between the machines. Cable modems do not work as fast as 10Base-T, so XDMCP doesn't usually work very well over a cable modem. Sorry about that it is 10Mbit. I been around this type of network for years and most of the time I can smell a network problem. I think the simple answer is that I don't understand xdmcp very well and I have something configured wrong. I have been able to get a XDMCP login for a while.

Re: setup.exe command line options
Sorry about the delay getting back to you... === - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 25, 2002 12:25 AM Subject: setup.exe command line options I've attached the diffs for the work in progress implementation of command line options. I've tried to copy the dialog's terminology when choosing the options and the variables used within WinMain. Cool. I'm using the PropertyPage Create functions as my interface. In many instances the Create function can do all the work for that dialog, and can return false - so no dialog will be created. I'm having problems with the packagedir and the rootdir Create functions, I must be missing something. Most importantly I'm having difficulty getting yyparse called. :( Simply populate the sites array and the source, and the parsing will happen in the ini dialog automatically. IMO you are better off using the _same_ code - command line parameters != windowless. Much work still to be done, but have a look and let me know how appalled you all are at my strategy! Shock! Horror!. :]. Seriously though, some feedback. * I think that the default window constructors should be left intact - add new constructors,or better yet methods that accept parameters. This will result in cleaner code in main.cc IMO. (i.e. create all the windows, then pass in all the parameters). * (optional) It'd be really neat to have the command line options register themselves, rather than all put in one place. Thats a more OOP approach, but more initial effort required. It also means that the parameter passing methods above wouldn't be needed per se - the registered code would do that on the callback. * for SourcePage, use an enum, not three bools - they are mutually exclusive after all. * Rather than skipping all the pages completely, I'd suggest having the page thread/function post a message that the dialog has finished after your options are processed. This is both simpler (no need to fiddle with what pages exist) and easier (greater ability to leverage the existing code). Other than that, good work. Cheers, Rob

[PATCH]Reduce messages in setup.log
The current setup.exe source has quite a number of messages that announce method calls. Most are being sent to setup.log and add bulk to that file without providing diagnostic benefit. I have changed the log() calls to send the messages to setup.log.full only. I also shortened the messages in iostream.cc to make them more consistent with the other messages. The log() call in compress_gz::error() is commented out. Should the corresponding call in compress_bz::error() be commented out as well? -- Mac :}) Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.

problems with gdbm ????

I get strange errors (malloc errors). Both gdbm and python interface are quite mature so I suspect that the problem is somewhere with my Cygwin setup. I run Cygwin over Win2k. I refreshed my setup yesterday before making any tests. The strangest point to me is that the gdbm C package comes with a testdbm.exe program. This program has also strange comportment : when trying to store a pair key-value, the process takes more than 95 procent CPU for time long enough that I decide to kill the process...

Fw: After new install, start in /usr/bin/{myname} not in /home/{myname}
There is apparently a bug in mkpasswd. (I was tracking to see if
setup.exe was the culprit).
On this machine (and others have been reported too) mkpasswd returns a
bad home path, which leads to somewhat strange behaviour.
The two attached cygchecks, from Fergus, show the environment with a bad
/etc/passwd (.chk) and with a good one (.out).
Hopefully this gives a clue as to why mkpasswd misbehaves, I haven't had
time to look at source yet.

No. This is a discussion point at the moment. IMO setup.ini on the sources.redhat site should include explicit listings of all packages that should be included in exp, and packages that are listed in curr or prev, but not in exp should uninstall. This allows for accurate experimental introduction of new packages that collide with curr packages, by not having those curr packages remain installed when someone wants a 'bleeding edge' install. Similar to the debian 'sid' distribution I guess. The alternative is the current status quo, where one always sees all packages regardless of the 'trust level'. It will get resolved one way or another before this gets released fully :}.

Extraordinary, this. Cygwin (latest version) was today installed on a
W98
machine in a way not obviously different from many previous new
installs --
that is, from a zip disk including just setup.exe + /contrib/* +
/latest/*
and no setup.ini. The startup location after keying
\Cygwin\bin\bash --login -i was /usr/bin/{myname} not
/home/{myname}.
I agree it might be regarded as asking for trouble to install without
setup.ini, but this pleasing starkness has always worked in the past.
Anyway, is doing without it necessarily the cause of the problem? If
anybody
can pinpoint what has occurred here I will be very pleased to know it.
(I tried a 2nd time to install, after wiping \Cygwin\ _and_ all
mentions of
Cyg* in the registry. Exactly the same outcome.)
Please supply the setup.log and setup.log.full from a failed run.
Thanks,
Rob

[URGENT] dlopen question
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
I recently discovered (to my horror) that the RTLD_* options (in
/usr/include/dlfcn.h) seem to just be dummy placeholders in cygwin,
due to the utterly feeble shared library/dll model under windows.
The cygwin sources appear to have wrapped the dl{open,sym,close}
calls around the windows equivalents (LoadLibrary, GetProcAddress,
and FreeLibrary).
Is there a way to simulate the dlopen(soname,RTLD_GLOBAL) call under
windows?
I really require this (or equivalent) functionality.
Any help will be greatly appreciated...
TIA

I would really appreciate any help with this,

Re: how to open *.htm and *.lnk
Hongxun, Here are the elements you need: For BASH users (equivalents presumably exist in other shells): % help test ... -h FILETrue if file is a symbolic link. -L FILETrue if file is a symbolic link. ... % man readlink % cygpath --help Now, write a BASH (or other shell) script that, after using the aforementioned primitives to get a native Windows name for the target file, invokes: cmd /q /c start /b WindowsFileName You will then no longer need to construct one-off BAT files to open files from Cygwin. See my message from yesterday with the Subject CYGWIN=ntsec Pragmattics (sic) for a caveat about file permissions and use of the cmd ... invocation I mentioned just above.

Re: [URGENT] dlopen question
I recently discovered (to my horror) that the RTLD_* options (in
/usr/include/dlfcn.h) seem to just be dummy placeholders in cygwin,
due to the utterly feeble shared library/dll model under windows.
The cygwin sources appear to have wrapped the dl{open,sym,close}
calls around the windows equivalents (LoadLibrary, GetProcAddress,
and FreeLibrary).
Is there a way to simulate the dlopen(soname,RTLD_GLOBAL) call under
windows?
I really require this (or equivalent) functionality.
Any help will be greatly appreciated...
libltdl supports loading of Windows DLLs. The version we are using in
kde-cygwin seems to work well.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] New on sourceware: texmf-20000804-2
Hi, I'm pleased to announce that teTeX's TeX Directory Structure (aka the texmf tree) has been packaged and is available for download. This release matches the latest tetex-beta packages (20001218-3 or -4). This is the first experimental release. As the full texmf tree is quite big (30MB), it's packaged in three parts, texmf-base, texmf-doc, and texmf-extra. After installing tetex-beta and texmf-base, you should have a functioning TeX setup. Add texmf-extra to get a complete TeX installation. There's an additional package: texmf-tiny, that provides a very small, but functional texmf tree. For a brief description of what these packages are and what they contain, see http://cygwin.com/packages/ . To update your installation, click on the ``Install Cygwin now'' link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. You find the TeX packages in catagory `Text', and because this is an experimental release, you should select Exp(erimental) in order to get to see them. Note: * These packages depend on tetex-beta-20001218-4 for full operation. * If you install by hand, run /etc/postinstall/post-texmf.sh. * If you have MiKTeX or fpTeX installed, please be sure to remove any custom TEXINPUTS, MFINPUTS VARTEXFONTS etc. environment settings that contain DOS style paths. * TeX cannot handle spaces in file names. If your $HOME contains spaces, you may need to run tex from another cwd, eg, /tmp. * LaTeX cannot handle letters with accents in file names. If your $HOME contains spaces or non-ASCII characters, you may need to run latex from another cwd, eg, /tmp. See also: /usr/doc/Cygwin/texmf-2804-2.README We do not allow downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to find a mirror which has this update. In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ is a reliable high bandwidth connection. In Germany, ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ is usually pretty good. In the UK, http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date within 48 hours. If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package then you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another mirror. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . I would appreciate it if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.

Re: New setup.exe and crashes
- Original Message - From: John P. Rouillard [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've uploaded a new setup.exe that shouldn't crash on *anything*. If you have time please give it a shot. I have successfully used it to download and install openssh from http://mirrors.rcn.net with WinNT 4.0SP5. With the previous setup snapshot that url caused a crash. Excellent. Also it looks like the new setup has a nice feature and can update in use binaries (I was using ssh at the time of the successful update above). However I can't find the registry entry that is used to move the new ssh.exe on top of the old one at (re-)boot time. So exactly how does the new install do its magic? Any sufficiently advanced technol :]. The source is your guide, but essentially itjust calls MoveFileEx with the correct flags on NT, and on 9x creates a .ini file to tell windows to do the copies at boot time. I had gotten used to having updates on running packages fail, might it be a good idea to offer an option Update running programs (requires reboot) in one of the screens. That way we could safely update the packages we aren't using without having to reboot. Yes, there is more to do here - a list of what programs are in use and the ability to wait for them to be closed would also be useful :}. Patches gratefully accepted, meanwhile we are making progress. Actually this begs the question, what happened when install failed due to in use binaries? Before? You got left with the old binary (couldn't be deleted) and no package, or sometimes the new package files with one old file. Rather bad behaviour IMO. Did it clean up after itself and reinstall the old files, or was I left with a mix of file versions after the failed update? I never had any problems after a failed update, so I always assumed that it cleaned up and backed out the updated files. Was I wrong? Very very wrong :}. It just failed. The resilience you saw is a credit to Cygwin and the packages - it could have been much worse :}.

stringstream vs. strstream
Hi all,
Given this source code:
--
#include iostream
#include sstream
#include strstream
#include string
int
main()
{
stringstream s1;
strstream s2;
string s, fmt(string);
s1 fmt[2];
s1 ends;
s = s1.str();
cout s1: s endl;
cout s1 size: s.size() endl;
s2 fmt[1];
s2 ends;
s = s2.str();
cout s2: s endl;
cout s2 size: s.size() endl;
return 0;
}
The following output is generated:
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-4.0 A19990524 1.3.9(0.51/3/2) 2002-01-21 12:48 i686 unknown
$ g++ -v
Reading specs from /bin/../lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/specs
gcc version 2.95.3-5 (cygwin special)
$ g++ tst.cc
$ ./a.exe
s1: r^@
s1 size: 2
s2: t
s2 size: 1
Note, the shell used is bash. So the '^@' is what is printed on the
console.
My question is, why is stringstream and strstream behaving differently?
I think stringstream should behave like strstream. Comments?

RE: CVS and SSL support
Yep, download cygwin binaries using setup.exe on cygwin site, choose CVS and OpenSSL packages and bob's your uncle... BTW, pserver doesn't work, use SSL and :ext Geoff -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 29, 2002 7:52 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: CVS and SSL support To Whom it May Concern, I've been trying to build a version of CVS with SSL support and I just can't get it to work. The tests fail on cygwin and I get strange behavior with my CVS server on a linux box. Can you point me to a distribution of CVS with ssl support or give me some advice? -Mark -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
RE: CVS PServer problem
Aw, damn. I should have said its not supported and RTFMLA myself. :-) Never mind...

Been waiting to use that one...] Pserver doesn't work yet. Using :external and SSH does. Geoff Actually, I have had CVS pserver work under Win2K/Cygwin and a certain amount of duress. I _might_ even be able to work out how I did it, if there is sufficient demand and there's something less interesting I'm avoiding doing (tax return springs to mind).

Not sure what the cause is, but you can ALT-TAB to it. I'm not sure if it is related, but if I move the IDD_CHOOSE dialog box, IDD_CHOOSER is visible at the old location. Likewise, if I moved the previous dialog box, I see IDD_CHOOSER in the old location and IDD_CHOOSE in the center until I move it too. I see the effect in setup.exe 2.186 - 2.188. It may have occurred earlier as well. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.htm Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
