Asunto: Setup.exe 2.573.2.2 unable to retrieve mirror list and
setup.ini/setup.bz2

Is there a way to make setup.exe output errors in more detail ?

Marek

Good idea. It would offer an error code and, preferly, an error text
message.

Regards.

 My issues weren't with the file permissions; it was all about incorrect
 symlink behavior.  I don't think Cygwin honors the native Unix
 permissions/attributes over a CIFS share; I sure wish it would, though.

It can't because it doesn't know how.  Cygwin uses standard NT system
calls to retrieve a security descriptor which represents the permissions
on the file.  It also uses standard NT calls to set security descriptors
on files.  If the underlying file system doesn't support this standard
means of retrieving and setting owners, groups and permissions, then
we're out of luck.

 It would be even cooler if I could create real symlinks on the network
 share instead of the fake Cygwin ones.  I expect that would require a
 lot more from the OS, though.  Maybe in Vista - I've heard that there is
 a newer SMB/CIFS 2.0 protocol that's supposed to make Windows behave a
 lot more like Unix over remote shares.  Of course we don't use Vista
 here, but there's always hope that in the future this will all
 eventually get sorted out.

Not in Vista, though.  Vista introduced a NTFS native symlink, but it
does not allow to access them over CIFS.  A native symlink on another
Vista machine is not even recognized as a symlink, just as a file of
size 0.  Trying to open this file from the remote machine doesn't work
(Permission denied in Cygwin, nothing at all in Explorer).

Not to mention the fact that the default security policy does not allow
normal users to create native symlinks.  Only Admins are allowed to do
that by default, which spoils their usability, somewhat.

 I keep a Unix shell open so I can change the attributes after creating
 the file on the Windows side.  It's annoying, because some Windows apps
 don't modify files - they delete and rename, so the moment you touch the
 file it's lost the permission again.  Occasionally I'll use the NetApp
 shell extension to do the same, as you mentioned.

If NetApp has a DLL which we could dynamically call from Cygwin, there
would be a chance to change this situation.  Given that somebody cares
enough to invest in source code.

Can you retrieve the contents of the above URL using your browser (IE, in

If you can, then there may be a problem with setup, since I see that
you're using IE5 settings to connect.  Another option is to try Direct

RE: Setup.exe 2.573.2.2 unable to retrieve mirror list and setup.ini/setup.bz2

2008-02-05 Thread Marek.Jawurek

I can open the mirror list with IE. I tried both, using the IE settings and 
providing it with the proxy information myself in setup.exe. The log reflects 
this,
i.e. it says net: IE5 or net: Proxy. 
Setup.exe could say how this connection failed, failure to connect to the 
server or a File not found response or
a DNS lookup failure. Additionally it could specify explicitely which network 
settings have been used, i.e. Proxy server and port, or elaborate on the 
settings 
retrieved from IE. I do believe that the problem lies in the local network 
settings, probably in combination with the way setup tries to obtain the files
but without further information I cannot verify anything.

Is there a backup method with which I can trick setup.exe into believing that I 
have the files already or provide them locally? I couldn´t find anything
about this in the Documentation. By simply providing all files locally I could 
install cywin after downloading all necessary files to my computer.

Yes, you're correct.  I'll try to work on it whenever I get some round
tuits (not likely to happen soon, though).

 or elaborate on the settings retrieved from IE.

That won't help much, because setup simply delegates to IE (invokes a
Windows call that retrieves the URL).

 I do believe that the problem lies in the local network settings,
 probably in combination with the way setup tries to obtain the files but
 without further information I cannot verify anything.

Hmm, the above URL is exactly the one it uses for retrieving the mirror
list.  I'm not sure what information setup could output -- perhaps you can
grab a debug version (from the snapshots directory) and step through it in
gdb (once you get Cygwin installed, that is)...

 Is there a backup method with which I can trick setup.exe into believing
 that I have the files already or provide them locally? I couldn´t find
 anything about this in the Documentation. By simply providing all files

 my computer.

Yes, there are a few ways.  First, I'd save the mirror list as
/etc/setup/mirrors-lst (prime the cache, so to say) and run setup again
(hoping it can then access the individual mirrors).  Or you can use setup
on another machine in download mode, copy the whole directory tree to your
machine, and then tell setup to Install from local directory.  Another
way is to mirror the repository on some site you *can* connect to and add
that as a mirror explicitly.

It would still be interesting to see why Use IE5 settings fails on your
machine while you can retrieve the mirror list via IE itself...  Do you
have to log in to your proxy?  If so, did you run setup after you logged
in via IE?

Phil,
Thanks for the info you provided. Im not conversant with GCC.  
I remove the path for regular library like libm.a, and all the paths
specified in posix , now my linker option is as follows

-L/cygdrive/f/geolog6.6.1/lib -lcgg -llicence -llogs_dll -lPGILc_dll
-lPGILcTool_dll -lcgs  -lgeolog6 -L/cygdrive/D/cygwin/lib/mingw -lmsvcrt
-Bstatic -lm
But Im not sure how to remove the dependency on libmsvcrt.a (that comes
with mingw lib in cygwin). What is the equivalent lib in cygwin/lib?
Moreover I followed the solution stated in the following url to get rid of
linking undefined reference symbol __chkstk
http://eegeerg.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html#4158852069709002699 
which actually states to copy chkstk.OBJ from MSVC/lib and rename to
chkstk.o and link with this.
Now linking error goes but when try to execute this exe, it doesnt gives
any error message but terminate unexpectedly.

 I am trying to using a library in my code whose default compiler is
 MSVCRT. When I try to compile that code in cygwin GCC environment I
 get the following errors

F:/geolog6.6.1/lib/libgeolog6.a(fileprintf.o):C:/development/ptc:(.text+
0x9)
 undefined reference to `__chkstk'
[snip]
 more undefined references to `_msgDebug' follow

 Can anyone tell me which cygwin-mingw library to be added to get rid
 of this linking error?

 My make file linking option I'm providing as follows

 -LF:/geolog6.6.1/lib -lcgg -lgeolog6  -llicence -llogs_dll -lPGILc_dll
 -lPGILcTool_dll -lcgs -llmgr9a -LD:/cygwin/lib -lcygwin
 -LD:/cygwin/lib/mingw -lmsvcrt -Bstatic -LD:/cygwin/lib -lm

First, don't use windows pathnames.  Cygwin is a POSIX environment,
so use POSIX pathnames (I.e. /cygdrive/f/ instead of F:/)

Second, you're linking with cygwin AND msvcrt and potentially also
mixing cygwin and mingw libraries.  Don't do that.
The cygwin, msvcrt and mingw are fundamentally incompatible.  
[Although it is possible under very specific circumstances to mix
cygwin and msvcrt, it requires knowledge of the internals of both
libraries, and if you had that knowledge, you wouldn't have posted 
your question, so the advice stands]

Make your mind up whether you want to write a POSIX program or a
Windows program and stick to your decision.

Third, let the compiler choose the C runtime library.  You don't
specify -lcygwin, nor the path to the standard library locations,
so the only -L you need is -L/cygdrive/f/geolog6.6.1/lib

Fourth, libm is integral to cygwin1.dll, so you don't need -lm.
The math library supplied with cygwin is only a stub to support 
makefiles such as yours that assume it's necessary.

undefined refernce symbol __chkstk

2008-02-05 Thread Anik Pal

I got the linking error message undefined reference symbol __chkstk. When
I try to link my source code with a MSVC compiled library. From the
following url I got a workaround to remove this problem is to copy
CHKSTK.OBJ from MSVC library and rename it to chkstk.o and link with it.

http://eegeerg.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html#4158852069709002699
 
But that option remove this error message and create the executable, But
when run the executable it doesn't give anything just abort, no error
message

I'm also linking my code with cygwin/lib/mingw/libmsvcrt.a

Now I suspect that wither CHKSTK.OBJ MSVC object file or mingw libmsvcrt.a
library or both is causing this problem. But I'm not sure How to replace
them with equivalent lib if I want to remove dependency from Mingc and MSVC
both.

 -L/cygdrive/f/geolog6.6.1/lib -lcgg -llicence -llogs_dll -lPGILc_dll
 -lPGILcTool_dll -lcgs  -lgeolog6 -L/cygdrive/D/cygwin/lib/mingw
 -lmsvcrt 
 -Bstatic -lm

You've only done half of what I said.

You only need this:

-L/cygdrive/f/geolog6.6.1/lib -lcgg -llicence -llogs_dll \
-lPGILc_dll -lPGILcTool_dll -lcgs  -lgeolog6

Here's why:

-L/cygdrive/D/cygwin/lib/mingw = look in the mingw lib directory
when linking.  You don't want to do that if you're compiling a
cygwin program, because the mingw libraries expect the program 
to be linked with msvcrt (see below)

-lmsvcrt = link to the Microsoft Visual C Runtime library. You 
definitely don't want this if you're compiling a cygwin program.

-Bstatic -lm = link with the static math library.  As I 
previously explained, the math library is integral to the cygwin 
C runtime library, so you just don't need this.


You should never specify a C runtime library to the compiler 
because  the compiler is generating code for a specific runtime 
library and if you force the linker to link with a different one 
you are likely to get all sorts of linkage errors.

If the above options don't work, then it's likely that your code
(or one of the libraries in geolog6.6.1/lib has calls to native
Windows functions.  If this is the case, you have two options:

1) replace all Windows function calls with their POSIX equivalent.
This will make your code portable to many more platforms.

2) If this is not possible, compile a native Windows program. For 
this you can either use the mingw version of gcc (where you'll 
need to use DOS style paths), or you can use cygwin's gcc in 
cross-compilation mode by specifying the -mno-cygwin option to gcc.
Note that if you do this, you won't be able to link to any of the 
cygwin libraries.  You don't need to change the link options from
those given above - gcc will automatically link with the msvcrt.dll

If you do decide to compile a native windows application, any 
further questions would be off-topic for this list - the clue is in
the no-cygwin bit ;-)

 But I'm not sure how to remove the dependency on libmsvcrt.a (that
 comes with mingw lib in cygwin).

If you've followed the above, you should now be able to answer that
yourself.

 What is the equivalent lib in cygwin/lib? 

cygwin1.dll is cygwin's libc.  Just leave it up to the compiler 
to figure out which C library it needs to link to.
 
 Moreover I followed the solution stated in the following
 url to get rid of linking undefined reference symbol __chkstk
 http://eegeerg.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html#4158852069709002699
 which actually states to copy chkstk.OBJ from MSVC/lib and rename to
 chkstk.o and link with this.
 Now linking error goes but when try to execute this exe, it doesn't
 gives any error message but terminate unexpectedly.

That link says this:
| This is the error you get when you try to link a msvc6 compiled 
   ^
| library with gcc on mingw
   

If you try to mix MSVC code with cygwin code, you are asking for
trouble.  As I said in my original reply, decide whether you want
a cygwin program or a native Windows program and stick to your 
decision.

Phil

Creating user in Documents and Settings on all networked machines

2008-02-05 Thread bootleg86 bootleg86

Hi,

Would it be possible to create a user folder in Documents and
Settings even if I have not logged on to the machine

I was thinking something along the line
for i in `seq -w 1 10`; do cd //machine${i}/c$/Documents and
Settings/; mkdir username; done

What I want to do is to populate the user folder with a couple of shortcuts,
so that when I log on to that machine, I will see all the shortcuts on
my desktop.

Is that possible.

Thanks

Ouch.  Well, pick your favorite then.  Cygwin doesn't strive to emulate any

  Cygwin is a Linux-like environment for Windows.

So unless you have an option for Linux, any of the above is probably just

I personally dont know. Im trying to compile source code that I did not make
myself. The ReadMe that comes with it tells me to run these commands:

{
% cd /usr/local/hsf
% make -f makefile.mak instarch INSTARCH=arch
% make -f makefile.mak bare
% make -f makefile.mak depend
% make -f makefile.mak install

The first make invocation uses the instarch option to install
architecture-dependent files required to support the compilation and
execution of the distribution’s programs and libraries. The actual
architecture is defined by replacing the argument arch with one of the
extensions listed in Table 2. ( SunOS, Solaris, HP-UX, IBM's AIX, DEC OSF
(Digital UNIX), or IRIX ) For example, “INSTARCH=sun” must be used
to compile the distribution on computers running SunOS 4.1.X. If you are
installing this software on a machine not listed in Table 2, you first need
to determine which set of architecture-dependent files is most similar to
those required by your particular computer. Invoke make using the instarch
option with INSTARCH set to the closest known architecture.
}

When I run make -f makefile.mak depend depending on what architecture i
specify I either get language M not recognized or it tells me that my
headers and C files cant be found. So im takin a stab in the dark and
guessing that choosing the closest architecture is a good place to start.

Well, I for one would love to have something like that.  I wonder if
NetApp could be poked/prodded to participate.  Makes me think also,
NetApp isn't the only CIFS server that supports Unix features - as
Corinna pointed out to me earlier, apparently Samba does this as well (I
haven't used Samba in years so I assumed that it could not).  And that
gives me a totally crazy idea - wouldn't it be nice if there were a
standardized, open set of extensions to allow Windows applications to
access native symlinks, attributes, and permissions over remote network
shares?  If there were such a thing, Cygwin could totally use that to
have seamless Unix-style integration with networks, as could other
applications.  If such a thing doesn't exist, it should.  If the CIFS
protocol already supports it, it should be exposed in the Windows OS.
Who do I need to vote for to make this happen?  :)

Also, it's very disappointing to hear about how the symlinks are
implemented in Vista.  Admin access?  What were they thinking?  Seems
like if Microsoft wants to solve their problems, they should re-engineer
the entire OS on top of a *nix kernel and be done with it.  Kind of like
Mac OS did...  Oh well.

Now I suspect that wither CHKSTK.OBJ MSVC object file or mingw libmsvcrt.a
library or both is causing this problem. But I'm not sure How to replace
them with equivalent lib if I want to remove dependency from Mingc and MSVC
both.


If your goal is to remove the dependency from Mingw and MSVC, so why are 
still trying to link against MSVC libs with ggc and MSVC specific 
compiler options?
__chkstk is a MSVC-specific stack checker compiled into each debugging 
function.


Get rid of your MSVC build script with cygwin, and use the cygwin 
equivalent of the solaris environment. Esp. get cygwin or mingw libs.

That's your work to do. Or use MSVC.

The day you got your cygwin application to compile against those
MSVC libs will not be the end of your problems.

So you link against a MSVC C++ library with gcc? Corba?
Maybe possible with a lot of work. But most likely not.
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.programming.html#faq.programming.msvc-gcc-objects
E.g. besides the different C++ name mangling, your lib is linked against 
the microsoft c runtime, on cygwin you use the cygwin c runtime.
Both together will not work. The C++ members allocate new memory with 
the msvcrt malloc(), which cannot be free'd from any cygwin function. 
And vice versa.

No this is not my homework. I need to know the closest archetype for a
makefile.


Looking at the makefiles in question would certainly help more than
just some OS names. Url of your app?
  gnu tools? autotools?
All are more or less unix like, but unix's not unix.
Esp. such high-powered unices, which could come without gnu at all.
Not just a simple gnu linux or bsd, which are closest to cygwin.

At least it's no VMS, MVS/OS-390 or lispmachine, so call yourself lucky.

  So, can't chmod easily.  Umask appears at first glance to be respected when

  I have no idea what happened next.  Looked as if the umask was contagious:

/win/t $ chmod a+rwx baz.bot
/win/t $ ls -la baz.*

Connection reset by peer?

That implies that your systems are forcibly ending the connection.

problem with setup

2008-02-05 Thread Amadeus W.M.

I am (was) running cygwin under XP at work. It was installed a while back 
by IT. Everything gets done through IT. They are primarily windows people 
and they left out some important packages like man and others. So I asked 
them to reinstall. I can't install the missing packages myself, they have 
to download whatever I need, scan it for viruses, pack it somehow, then 
install it on my machine. 

Long story short, when all planets were in alignment, I ran setup to do 
an installation from scratch (over my existing installation). 
Accidentally, I had a shell open (I run bash in rxvt). At some point the 
installer wanted to uninstall bash, it failed. I closed the shell and I 
told it to retry, but it kept failing so I pressed cancel. I ran setup 
again (several times) and at each time I would get an error that setup 
crashed, please inform Microsoft . I said no, but the installer would 
hang. Always when it was trying to uninstall bash. 

Cygwin did install properly on other co-workers' machines, so I imagine I 
caused the whole thing by having the shell open the first time. The 
question is what do I do now? I don't even know where to start. 

Is there a way to completely remove cygwin as if it was never there? Do I 
have to clean up some entries in the registry? Delete /cygdrive/c/cygwin? 
I'm a linux guy, I have no idea what to do in windows. 

I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

Yup, that's right.



OK, we have isolated the problem now.  Confirming its in the libgfortran.  The 
reason we did not see it on Linux is because we just did not run out of memory 
yet and when the test program completes, it does actually free what was 
allocated.  We are failing to reuse an already allocated block so we were 
allocating a new one for every single WRITE to the string.

Might be worth trying to delete (or move aside) '/etc/setup/bash.lst.gz'

Which is why I was suggesting removing '/etc/setup/bash.lst.gz'.  It sounds
like this file may have become corrupt, which can cause 'setup.exe' to
crash.  If that's it, this should allow 'setup.exe' to run without the
need of removing everything and reinstalling.  But if it's all the same to
you, then you can certainly go ahead and do that.

Yep.  Looking at the strace, -K full triggers the exec of
/lib/clisp-2.44/full/lisp.exe, which complains:
$ cygcheck /lib/clisp-2.44/full/lisp
c:\cygwin\lib/clisp-2.44/full/lisp.exe
...
Error: could not find cygpq5.dll

Yet:
$ cygcheck -p cygpq5
Found 0 matches for cygpq5.

So, what is cygpq5.dll, and has it ever been in the distribution?  At any
rate, it looks like clisp needs to be rebuilt to either provide this dll
or not link against it.

clisp is just a wrapper program that invokes other executables.  I
wouldn't expect clisp itself to have problems, since it worked when you
didn't use -K full.

Re: Updated: clisp-2.44-1 for cygwin

Error: could not find cygpq5.dll



Was cygpq5.dll the only missing file reported?  I repeated
your command and found that cygfcgi-0.dll is also needed/missing.
(See below for the full listing of cygcheck.)

 So, what is cygpq5.dll, and has it ever been in the distribution?

It might be a typo (in the procedures that compile/link clisp).  
Possibly, 'cygpq.dll' is
needed.  It is a library included in the Cygwin package named 'libpq4'.  
Is there a

newer version 'libpq5' that has not been created for Cygwin yet?

$ cygcheck -f /usr/bin/cygpq.dll
libpq4-8.0.7-1

The Clisp documentation specifies that the full set of modules will include
a postgresql and a fastCGI module.  The DLLs that provide this support
appear to be missing.



Full listing for cygcheck of the full and base lisps.
