If Cygwin had a problem with running multiple scripts at the same time, it would have been noticed already. This sounds like either your local configuration is broken (multiple cygwin1.dlls, known incompatible software, etc), or you've stumbled upon a tcsh bug.

perl DBD::mysql under cygwin question
Hello the cygwin people, I decided to use cygwin because I'm working with biological packages that run on linux unix, and I work mainly on windows. I have only little experience with linux\unix. I installed cygwin on my windows xp recently, with all modules. I had no problems with running perl scripts under cygwin, and installing perl modules like bioperl. Then I tried to install DBD::mysql. ccording to the instructions I have to first download mysql linux source, to compile it and install it under cygwin. here are the instruction - http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBD-mysql/lib/DBD/mysql/INSTALL.pod I followed them but 'make install' for mysql gave errors. I used mysql source Compressed GNU TAR archive (tar.gz) here: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html so: is it the right version ? maybe I missed other things ?

about a Tcl/Tk and cygwin question
Dear Cygwin friends,
I installed Cygwin and Cygwin/X into my PC. It works well. But today when I
ran a program to test a Tcl/Tk script. It cannot works well. I test these
scripts on other Linux or Unix system. It works well. Definitely, in other
unix/linux system, I compile quads.f file to quads.o and excute it in
quads.tcl. Here in Cygwin, I use g77 compile it into quads.o so that can be
used in quads.tcl. I tried just excute quads.o just in Cygwin. It works
well. So it is impossible the compilation problem. I worried about the
installation problem about Tcl/Tk. Anybody can tell me why? Whether my
installation about Cygwin is inproblem.
Attached are scripts and here is the error message.

Re: [SWIPL] emacs prolog cygwin question
Stefan Bruda said the following on 3/16/2005 8:37 AM: I am not at all familiar with Cygwin, so the following are more of educated guesses rather than authoritative answers. At 06:58 -0800 on 2005-3-16 Steve Kelem wrote: I have verified that the above version of prolog.elc is being loaded. When I load a prolog source file, and type C-c C-b, I cannot get a prolog process to run. C:\cygwin\bin\pl is a symbolic link to ../lib/pl-5.2.6/bin/i686-cygwin/pl.exe I believe that the right executable to run under Windows is plcon.exe, not pl.exe. I couldn't find a plcon anywhere. This may or may not be the problem, possibly not since you are running Prolog from Cygwin. On the other hand, what is the .exe suffix doing there? Cygwin is linux on top of Windoze, so the file has to be a Microsoft .exe file when all's done. It is worth trying plcon.exe if this exists on your system. If you just type `pl' (without quotes) at the shell prompt do you get the Prolog application up? Do you get a graphical version or a console-based version? In the former case, do you get the Windows or X interface? I get the consol-based-version. I am sort of confused about the way your Prolog system is installed and what is and what is not in your search path--but then I am not familiar with how Cygwin is doing things. I ended up uninstalling the cygwin version (5.2.6) of swi prolog, loaded the version (5.4.7) from http://www.swi-prolog.org/, and the new one works---in a Cygwin tcsh, in emacs, and from tcsh as a windows-style window. Have you tried to set the EPROLOG environment variable instead of setting prolog-program-name? Have you tried following the item 4 of instructions at http://turing.ubishops.ca/home/bruda/emacs-prolog/install.html? I am not saying that these works, but they are worth a shot. On the other hand, I do not understand the cause of the error. The error message is either misleading or suggests another cause. At least on my system I get in the error message a plain text explanation of the actual errno (no such file or directory). Your error message looks nothing like mine. Could be a different Emacs version, but it could also be that the problem is in some other place. Let me know what happens with the things I mentioned before (such as launching pl as a standalone application). ; In Emacs-style path: (setq prolog-program-name C:/cygwin/bin/pl) Spawining child process: invalid argument. This should work as far as the path is concerned. ; In Windows-style path with unquoted backslashes: (setq prolog-program-name C:\cygwin\bin\pl) Spawining child process: invalid argument. This should not work no matter under what system, since backslash has special meanings Are you sure you don't get the C:cygwin^Hinpl in this one rather than the one below? This is what should have happened. ; In Windows-style path with quoted backslashes: (setq prolog-program-name C:\\cygwin\\bin\\pl) Spawining child process: invalid argument.

The person who submitted the patch says: | Default to using -mno-cygwin, it works best in mingw/cygwin/wine | mkdir() takes only one argument in msvcrt, and 2 in all other cases It looks like you could override this with make COMMON_FLAGS='' some-wxwindows-target And it appears that this change has no effect on './configure', but affects only building with the canned makefiles. If you disagree with the change, here's what to do: | Patches item #667563, was opened at 2003-01-14 04:05 | You can respond by visiting: | https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailatid=309863aid=667563group_id=9863 Further discussion ought to go there or a cygwin list. I don't have a personal interest in cygwin, and I'm not posting to their list because I'm not subscribed and wouldn't see any responses--so that would be rude. But if you're interested in wxWindows on cygwin, feel free to quote this email anywhere else. Is anyone in the cygwin list interested in wxWindows? It seems like defaulting to -mno-cygwin is the wrong thing to do to me but I'm not familiar with wxWindows (please, I don't need an education, just an informed opinion) so I don't know if this seemingly nonsensical suggestion makes sense or not. cgf -- 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/
Cygwin question - hopefully a quickie
Title: Cygwin question - hopefully a quickie Christopher: I downloaded a version of Cygwin (can't remember the source; one of those from the http://www.cygwin.com/ list) onto my new machine which uses Win 2000 Professional OS. I just now noticed that it doesn't recognize the ex (batch vi editor) command. I've used Cygwin (again, I don't know the source) before on the Win NT environment, and it recognized the ex command OK. What can I use as a substitute for the ex command?

Re: Cygwin question - hopefully a quickie
Well, that's a reasonable recommendation but, as it turns out, it won't work unless the VIM package is installed and if VIM is installed, it's not necessary to do this manually, since the link is created as part of the installation of this package. Here's the FAQ entry that should prove useful when trying to figure out what Cygwin package a particular utility is in. What packages should I download? http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_2.html#SEC13 Ah the FAQ. It's a wonderfull concept! ;-) Larry Original Message: - From: Corneliu Rudeanu [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2002 22:01:38 +0200 (EET) To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Cygwin question - hopefully a quickie On Wed, 11 Dec 2002, Harter, Pete wrote: Christopher: I downloaded a version of Cygwin (can't remember the source; one of those from the http://www.cygwin.com/ http://www.cygwin.com/ list) onto my new machine which uses Win 2000 Professional OS.

Re: Your Cygwin question / cygreadline
Wayne, Please post to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of sending private email.

It cropped up when I was working/playing with Octave. I tried searching the archives, got 160 some odd hits. No obvious titles, so I was left with searching that many files. Hmm... Heres the funny, when I have tried to email the mailing list, my email is rejected, both from here, and my airbase email account. So? Anyway, thanks, even if you haven't gotten it resolved.
