I have a Windows MSI installer that first loads Cygwin and then has a deferred copy of some files into /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/etc.
The copies into /usr/local/bin succeed fine. The copies into /usr/local/etc always get Access denied. I've tried swapping them and same behavior. The files that would copy into /usr/local/bin now would not copy into /usr/local/etc. I'm seeing this behavior on Windows 7 and Windows 2008R2 w/UAC. The installer prompts the user for elevated privileges to deal with UAC. Is there some underlying difference in the way that /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/etc are configured in Cygwin? -- 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
