I am struggling to get cygwin back on an XP system it used to work on. I have followed the posts and FAQ's I have found to troubleshoot. I have cleaned cygwin off the system, including the packages folder, shortcuts, etc, but each try at installing yields much the same. Attached it the setup.log.full file. When I run setup.exe, the GUI displays a number of 254 errors. After the install, clicking on the cygwin shortcut opens a command window, with a cygwin prompt, but no commands work. Further examination shows that no user folder was created under \cygwin\home. I have tried installing using local administrator account as well as domain admin account.
All of this started when I tried to upgrade cygwin. Any leads much appreciated. Thank you, Clay Goss -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
