I noticed my Task Manager was taking over 50% CPU whenever I had it open. When it wasn't open I did not experience this drain on the CPU. Anyway I decided to defrag my memory using this command using the Windows Scripting Host: MyString = Space(12800) This is in a VBS file I call memory.vbs. It releases memory. It is accessed like this in the Windows Commnd Prompt: cscript memory.vbs When I did that I got cscript is not an internal command. That is not good. It meant my ccript.exe was missing. Well sort of. After investigating this I noticed I had a new Service and new user accounts in my Server. Sure enough something was uploaded into my system directory. It is a variant of ServU which is commonly used by hackers. They used it in conjunction with: hidden32.exe CsC.exe ip.exe jacheck.dll jastat.dll nc.exe WSManager32.exe (camouflaged ServU) (runs as a service) sec.exe pwdump2.exe sc.exe hxdef100.exe samdump.dll uptime.exe psinfo.exe kill0103.exe psloggedon.exe fport.exe hxdefdrv.sys There are two more services that also run. I looked at the ini used to set it all up and so knew where to look. I believe it happened due to the Windows Media Service because now that is broke. I removed it. I found these because I knew the time the issue above started and I was able to see the new files created in my System directory around that time. Anyway I noticed the issue with Cygwin at about the same time. I have cleaned these things out and voila Cygwin is fine now. Thanks for looking into this with me. -- George Hester __ -- 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: Trailing commandline arguments not allowed.
Hi Igor. Crap I messed up in my last post. Please do not read it. It will only upset you. I got the service to exist in the Services applet with: $cygrunsrv -I Apache -p /usr/sbin/httpd.exe -t auto but it does not behave as a normal service.

Re: Trailing commandline arguments not allowed.
Yes I do. So I followed the directions. It said you must run httpd as root initially. To do this make a change so that I have, User Guest. Of course no one in their right mind enables the Guest account but I went ahead and left my Guest account alone (the directions did not say to enable that account) and made the entry directed.

For example, I run httpd as nobody (a new user I created for just that purpose). I also used the -t manual cygrunsrv parameter, which means I have to start httpd manually (which suits me fine). You can use -t auto instead if you want the service to be started at boot (when, in fact, something like cygrunsrv -S does happen). The reason you need cygrunsrv -S in the instructions is that simply adding the service, even with -t auto, won't start it in the current session. As for your apache not working, see if there are any messages in /var/log/httpd.log, /var/log/apache/error_log, and the Windows Event log. It's likely either a permissions problem, or a problem with httpd.conf syntax. As a datapoint, try removing the service and starting httpd from the command line with the exact same flags as cygrunsrv starts it with (i.e., -F). This will at least eliminate httpd.conf syntax (if the service starts correctly). For a more definite experiment, try running it from a system-owned shell.

It's in Chinese and Russian. At least the index.html is NOT English. How do I remove this and get the English version? Thanks. Apache comes with the index.html page in multiple languages. It selects the page to display based on your browser's accepted language preference. Try telnetting to the apache port and requesting 'GET / HTTP/1.0', and see which page is returned. Igor OK Igor I can try that. I actually have a few language prefs in my browser. I suppose if I remove the non-English ones that may fix it. But you know this is not right. Apache should pull out the language pref from the top which is English (US) in my case en-us. There must be a setting that is incorrect where the Apache is looking at 2nd 3rd pref instead of 1st pref. I've just verified that Cygwin's Apache (which is version 1.3.29) doesn't recognize en-US (but does recognize en). This may be a bug in Apache... Let me see what happens when I remove the other language prefs...yup that did it. The secondary and tertiary language prefs are interfering. Try adding en after en-US... Another thing I am noticing. When I start the Apache server logout no lomger works in Cygwin. The bash shell just hangs. In fact it has hung through the entire write of this post. I have to kill the Cygwin session by X the command console window. I don't see this on Win2k SP3, Cygwin 1.5.8. But then, I run apache as a service. You didn't provide enough information to allow others to attempt to reproduce this. Please review the Cygwin problem reporting guidelines at http://cygwin.com/problems.html and try again... Make sure to provide the exact sequence of actions that results in the hang. Igor Lets see: I double-click the Cygwin icon on the desktop. I go into the default bash shell. I type \usr\sbin\httpd I then try logout and Cygwin hangs. Please pay attention to details -- typing \usr\sbin\httpd will not even start Apache in a bash shell; you'd need to type /usr/sbin/httpd for that (note the forward slashes). Also, httpd with no options forks and puts itself in the background, but, on some OSes may still be attached to the originating console (which is what you see -- bash has exited, but the *console window* that ran bash cannot exit because of httpd running). Since you haven't told us what version of the OS you're trying this on, we can't guess what the problem or the possible solutions might be. Not sure of the version of Cygwin...I think it just updated when I ran setup a moment ago. As specified in http://cygwin.com/problems.html, the way to report the version of Cygwin (along with the OS version and enough details about your installation to try reproducing your problem) is to attach (as an uncompressed text attachment) the output of cygcheck -svr to your message.

Process of Installation?
When I run the setup for Cygwin I go through various dialog boxes to download and install various packages. All the packages come in as name.tar.bz2 files. Consider this package: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=28862 The files here are in the form name.tar.gz. What I did was ungzip the package and recompress it as a bz2 file. What I'd like to do is use the same sequence of events that Cygwin uses to install the name.tar.bz2 files downloaded from Cygwin setup to install my newly formed bz2 file as I just described. But I don't know the process (the sequence of events) that Cygwin uses on the bz2 files to install the modules.

Re: Difference between just having cygwin1.dll and running under cygw in
This coming from a whipper-snapper I don't expect a response. But you sure have a famous name. Now if I could just get the Korn Shell in cygwin or integrate UWin into cygwin that would be really neat. George Hester __ Dave Korn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: cygwin-owner On Behalf Of Larry Hall Sent: 11 March 2004 20:28 At 03:17 PM 3/11/2004, you wrote: What's the difference between running an executable in the cygwin environment and running it in a Win2K DOS shell on the same machine(which obviously has cygwin1.dll)? As I mentioned in another thread of mine, I have a program(port of objcopy) that I've compiled that runs just fine under cygwin, but crashes with a stack violation whenever I run it under a DOS window on the same machine! There's really no significant difference, assuming your DOS shell can see cygwin1.dll and it's the same one you get when you run under your Cygwin shell (having more than 1 cygwin1.dll on your system is a *very* bad idea anyway). Certainly, there can be all kinds of differences in the environment, literally, but it should be pretty obvious if you're dependent on some environment variable or something that's not set for Windows. Maybe you just need to debug it and see where the problem is and why you get it. Like I said, objcopy that comes with Cygwin's binutils works just fine for me outside of a Cygwin shell so it's not a problem with the tool in general. Larry I think you may slightly underestimate the amount of difference it makes. For example, it's going to make a big difference to the runtime memory layout. If you run under bash you're going to have a whole load of posix environment vars at the very top of your runtime stack. I could easily imagine a stray pointer or stack smashing bug that harmlessly scribbles on the environment vars under bash but writes over what is active program stack at the same address / offset-from-sp when run from dos. However, I agree with your conclusion: any *correct* program should run equally well under either, and I think in this case it's not that running under DOS breaks the program, but that it just happens to get lucky and work by chance under bash. My makefile does the same thing as the objcopy makefile, but the result of my compilation is something that only works under cygwin. That's quite an assertion to make! How did you generate your makefile, and how can you be really sure it's doing exactly the same? Autoconf-produced makefiles are fairly hairy; if you've hacked up the autoconf one, you're probably in the clear, but if you've tried reading the autoconf one and duplicating it's effects from scratch, you may easily have introduced a discrepancy. However, that's a side issue; it's unlikely to be a compiler option that's causing your problem. The fact that it's hanging in malloc suggests that it's very likely that the root cause of the crash is trashing the heap, most likely by writing past the end of a malloc'd block of memory. Beyond that it's difficult to speculate, particularly since we don't really have any idea what sort of changes you've made to the code. You should investigate any of the changes you've made that refer to arrays or malloc'd memory, or perhaps use some kind of error-checking malloc wrappers - e.g. efence, http://perens.com/FreeSoftware/ (ftp site currently down, it seems) or http://freshmeat.net/projects/efence/?branch_id=2277release_id=7043 . Of course it's always possible that it's not the code you've changed that is overwriting memory but something elsewhere by means of some indirect and unexpected interaction. Those are the worst kinds of bugs to look for, but malloc-wrappers might still help. How big are the changes you've made to the source?

The cygcheck program in its -s mode (system information) was designed to cram as much useful information about your Cygwin installation as possible into its output, to help others in diagnosing and/or reproducing your problems (and, hopefully, eventually fixing them). The installed programs part of the output attempts to list some common programs that people usually ask about. This helps in situations where some other version of gcc hides the Cygwin version, for example, and people complain that gcc doesn't work. The fact that the programs are or aren't found on your system shouldn't bother you unless you need to use one of them. All four of the programs that you listed are development tools to let you build and debug programs. Frankly, I have no idea why cpp not found is (good!). Perhaps it used to be that the gcc package hid cpp in its special directory, and you weren't supposed to invoke it directly, but rather by passing an option to gcc. AFAICS, the current package ships with that program, so perhaps that note is outdated and should be removed. Since these programs are in the official Cygwin packages, you, apparently, haven't installed everything (which is what I read your all the options to mean). If you want to see exactly what you've installed and what's available, run setup.exe and switch the view to Full (using the button on the top right of the package selection page). You will see information about all the packages in the distribution. I can't really tell you more about your system, since you haven't attached the output of cygcheck -svr as requested in http://cygwin.com/problems.html.

I suspect the file deletion recovery extensions were to blame.

Re: I am not going to let cygwin BSOD my Windows 2000 Server
Got you. I don't recall if a reboot was necessary. All I remember was that the Cygwin installation didn't work. I then rebooted hoping then it would work. It didn't I BSOD'd. Now that was in Windows 2000 Professional which is doing very well now thank you. I was going to put Cygwin in Windows 2000 Server and I was going to try it without the automatic installation in the setup routine. So I asked here and have been met with many an encouraging and discouraging response. I suppose that's the Way of The World. -- George Hester _ Cliff Hones [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 002f01c1e932$f05abe80$0101a8c0@albion">news:002f01c1e932$f05abe80$0101a8c0@albion...

My suggestion was that Norton or McAfee (and the likes) may be the cause of your (or others') problems. They have certainly been known to cause BSODs when they are active during installs of Cygwin and of other software. I'm afraid that after all the mails on this subject I'm still unclear about what your problem is. The nearest I can come to it is that long ago you tried installing Cygwin, and your system BSOD'd when you rebooted it. And therefore you are refusing to even countenance using setup.exe ever again. I must have this wrong, since it is somewhat illogical. It seems noone else has seen such behaviour, which does suggest that it may be your system rather than Cygwin setup.exe which is to blame, yet you seem to go ballistic at this suggestion. Why, incidentally, did your system need a reboot after installing Cygwin? This is not normally necessary - Cygwin does not install any system components. It is one of the least intrusive software packages I know of. Nevertheless if you wish to install Cygwin on your server without using setup.exe, then it is possible, and if you're prepared to put in a little research you should be able to find out how. What you won't find is much in the way of support on this list. -- Cliff -- 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: I am not going to let Cygwin BSOD my Windows 2000 Server
Have mercy upon me please.OK I'll come clean. This was so long ago (18 mos) that I don't really remember what exactly happened. But I do know that it didn't work. I have the old Cygwin CD package which I bought from Cygwin. I took the one I downloaded and installed from Redhat and removed it. I am not going to go into what I had to do to remove it it was too long ago. I then installed the one from the CD. That one didn't work either. I then installed the CD Cygwin in Windows 98 and it worked about 98% wasn't too bad. So to be as staright as I can, Cygwin in Windows 2000 Professional failed 18 mos ago. Over that time I believed it failed BSOD. But as I said I may be wrong about that. Although I asked for what I thought would be an easy enough request, I find that I must have hit a nerve. Could be what I asked for or how I asked for it. The former I know what's necessary now the later sorry. -- George Hester _ George Hester [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message a9r365$mj3$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:a9r365$mj3$[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Re: I am not going to let cygwin BSOD my Windows 2000 Server
Sort of. Maybe it does work for 99% of the people out there. I know nothing of that. And yes, my toes are sensitive to things such as this. If I lose my op sys it takes me months to get it back to the condition I had before its destruction. You may not believe me but I assure you that is the case. The information I have garnered here has helped to maybe stick my toes in the fire again. I will wait a while and see if there is any good soul that can explain the procedures for a manual setup. And if that is pie in the sky then at that point I will decide if walking around with a few less toes is worth it.

Re: Where is the manual to manually install cygwin in Windiows 2000
Thanks Robert. I went there. But it looks as though I have to have Cygwin installed to do this. Let me give you an example: On this page: http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/plugin.htm you will see an example how to get files using CVS. That worked just fine for me. But on this page: http://cygwin.com/cvs.html the directions say this: Once you've done that, you need to tell your local cvs software what password to use. The password is the word anoncvs : bash$ cvs login. As you can see there is a bash shell running.
