Hi,
Under cygwin, trying to use the urlread function in octave causes the
following error:
octave:7> url = 'http://www.google.com';
octave:8> [s,success,message] = urlread(url)
error: /usr/lib/octave/3.6.4/oct/i686-pc-cygwin/urlwrite.oct: failed
to load: No such file or directory
I've checked that the file exists:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/octave/3.6.4/oct/i686-pc-cygwin/urlwrite.oct
-rwxr-xr-x 1 ???????? None 106510 Feb 23 08:38
/usr/lib/octave/3.6.4/oct/i686-pc-cygwin/urlwrite.oct
For me is:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/octave/3.6.4/oct/i686-pc-cygwin/urlwrite.oct
-rwxr-xr-x 1 marco None 106510 Feb 23 09:38
/usr/lib/octave/3.6.4/oct/i686-pc-cygwin/urlwrite.oct
it seems to me that ???????? is coming from an error in
your cygwin setup. It is not an octave issue.
It seems you never correctly updated your
/etc/passwd
see "man mkpasswd"
What is the outcome of command "whoami" ?
please follow:
Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html
specifically
"Run cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out and include that file as an
attachment in your report. Please do not compress or otherwise encode
the output. Just attach it as a straight text file so that it can be
easily viewed."
