I always use "acl" as mount option. > Try: cat gnulliver.h $ pwd /home/corinna/tmp/cmake/work $ cat src/include/gnulliver.h #define GNULLIVER_HOST_FLOAT32_DOUBLE64 > I have had the same problem with a package built via autotools, so it > is more general > than CMake.

Ok, so I tried under /cygdrive/c and the result is the same, then I tried under an explicit noacl mount point and the result is still the same. The file has always enough permissions and reading it is no problem at all. But the default Windows permissions on the parent dir of your build dir could explain that behavior when using the noacl mount option. Noacl means, just let Windows do what it always does and fake the permissions rather than evaluating them from the given ACL. Remount again with "acl", and change the permissions explicitely: $ chown -R you.your-group . $ chmod -R u+rw,go+r . Also, make sure your umask is set to a useful value: $ umask 22 Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat -- 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
