Re: Web servers
Terry Bailey wrote: Hi, I am running cygwin on Windows 2003. The apache server in cygwin is running on port 80. The web server running on Windows under IIS is on port 81. Why 2 web servers? Just like asking for trouble? My advice? Shut down IIS until you get Apache configured and working. Secondly, consider abandoning IIS all together... If I put in a mime type (say the extension is .abx and the content-type is application/octet-stream) for the 2003 web server, Stop. Where exactly are you putting that mime type? Are you defining it for Apache or IIS? then apache in cygwin quits running even though ps -ef states that there are four or five instances of httpd running in cygwin. If there are 4 or 5 instances of httpd running then it's quite clear that Apache has not quit running. What makes you say it quit running? What is going on? From your description it's hard to say... Does the httpd.conf file in cygwin somehow connect with the config file in Windows? What config file in Windows? A config file for what exactly? You have not even bother to name the file! You only mention above httpd.conf whereas before (I put a mime type for the 2003 web server) you were pretty vague. Generally an httpd.conf file is a configuration for an httpd process. The httpd process is generally associated with Apache not IIS. I don't know what IIS calls itself, or rather I've forgotten. Also, putting a mime type into an httpd.conf file does nothing in and of itself. Config files are generally read at start up so if you didn't restart Apache it wouldn't even know about the change. And are you using Cygwin's Apache or just a regular Apache for Windows Apache? There's a difference and that difference deals specifically with where the config files reside and how the httpd process searches for them. Any help would be appreciated. A more exacting description of the problem would be appreciated... -- Andrew DeFaria http://defaria.com I hit the CTRL key but I'm still not in control! -- 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/
Re: cygwin makes shared folders on vista
Hello, nmehta wrote: ... Also, if you create a directory in Cygwin on /c like you did it does not show up as shared. If you create a directory in your Vista home directory (/c/Users/username/) on the other hand it shows up as shared. ... I can also say that CYGWIN=notntsec does fix this behavior (created folders are no longer shared). ... Same thing for me: it depends on the current directory... subdirectories of Desktop have also these unexpected shared files/directories generated. Setting this variable CYGWIN=notntsec (with .bashrc or Vista system environment variables) is functioning well. No shared tags anymore when creating files/dir from cygwin shell. But if you compile a c program with cygwin/gcc(3.4.4) that generate files, as this test-one : http://www.nabble.com/Fwd%3A-Stupid-Vista-64-tricks-p12321538.html Stupid-Vista by Georg Nikodym , then, this variable seems not to be used when the .exe file is not executed from Cygwin-shell (run directly from windows explorer, for example). And then again appear problems of shared files/directories. ... I tried to call setenv(CYGWIN, nontsec,1) in C file, without success. One other strange thing, is that: if the .exe file is run as Administrator, then there's no more shared tags !?

Announce: FlexDLL, flexible DLLs under Windows
Dear Cygwin and MinGW mailing lists, I'd like to announce the availability of FlexDLL, a new tool that should greatly help porting some Unix applications under Windows. FlexDLL implements the classical POSIX dlopen API. In short, it lets you create DLLs with unresolved symbols. When a DLL is loaded, these symbols are matched against those found in the main program and in previously loaded DLLs. This should make the development of modular applications (plugins) much easier under Windows. Forget all the trouble about dllimport/dllexport directives, .def files and import libraries! FlexDLL also exposes a common command-line interface to the Cygwin and Microsoft linkers, which should simplify the life of developers that targets several tool chains. Homepage: http://alain.frisch.fr/flexdll.html FlexDLL is open-source (MIT-like license) and it supports three toolchains: Cygwin, MinGW, and native MSVC (x86 and x86_64). It acts as a wrapper around the linker (at compile-time) and as a wrapper around LoadLibrary (at runtime). I hope this announce is not too much off-topic for these mailing lists. Feedback and comments are very welcome!

Umm, you don't need that much memory to open a file, thanks to the wonders of file-backed virtual memory. But what you probably do need is a 1.5GB empty hole in your process address space (unless vim is intelligent enough to only mmap() part of the file at a time), and finding a hole that size is almost certainly impossible on 32-bit targets without enabling the boot.ini '/3GB' switch.

Re: unison-2.27.exe silently exits
I've installed 2.27 and and 2.13 on 3 different machines (XP, Vista, 2003 server), but on all of them, unison-2.27.exe simply exits (error code 1) with no output, regardless of anything written on the command line (-version, -help). Using Process Monitor, I see that it does read default.prf (if available), but its presence doesn't seem to matter. It also doesn't matter whether I execute unison-2.27.exe explicitly or through the alternatives link. 2.13 works fine, 2.17 seems OK (it responds to options, but I haven't used it actively). Robert, thanks for the report. I'm not able to reproduce this problem on my WinXP host: $ unison -version unison version 2.27.48 A few questions: Did you have the previous version of unison2.27 installed, and if so did it work properly? If you didn't try it, please try installing it over the current release: wget http://home.comcast.net/~aschulman2/unison2.27/unison2.27-2.27.29-1.tar.bz2 tar -C/ -jxf unison2.27-2.27.29-1.tar.bz2 Then run 'unison-2.27 -version' again and please let me know if it works.
