Hello, I am trying to install Cygwin 1.7.9 onto Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 machines that do not have network access. I ran the setup.exe application from a Windows XP 32 bit virtual machine, selected "Download only," and selected all packages. I burned these onto a DVD along with the setup.exe program.
When I run setup.exe on the unnetworked machines, I get the following error message several times: "The program can't start because cygncursesw-10.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." In addition, a dialog cautions that several post-install tasks failed to complete. I cannot run the Cygwin (bash) shell because it pops up the cygncursesw-10.dll error message. This happens on both a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard (64 bit) and a Windows 7 Enterprise machine (64 bit). Any suggestions?
