I have been installing cygwin and SSHD on several computers without any
trouble. However I am getting a strange problem on a few servers. When I try
to run anything cygwin related it just crashes immediately. Like if I run the
cygwin shell the window just pops up and immediately closes.
my cygcheck just displays this:
Cygwin Configuration Diagnostics
Current System Time: Sat Aug 13 09:46:48 2005
Windows 2003 Web Server Ver 5.2 Build 3790 Service Pack 1
Running in Terminal Service session
Path: C:\WINDOWS\system32
C:\WINDOWS
C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem
c:\cygwin\bin
and stops - again, probably just crashing.
What shows the eventlog? Are there some policies active because 2003
Server is really picky about what is allowed to run. However it should
be a relevant information and/or error message in the eventlog.
E.g. we got a problem with an old printer driver which runs in kernel
space which is no longer permitted with the default settings, basically
it is a good thing to teach the programmers to not use my kernel space
for things like printer drivers.
The sytems where cygwin works are also (Web) Server 2003 (NT 5.2)?
cygcheck -c shows a problem:
cygwin 1.5.18-1 Incomplete
Cygwin requires at least cygwin1.dll to be present in the bin directory
(-> c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll). The headers and import libraries are
not neccessary to run executables.
I am installing the default package set along with openssh and vim. I tried
uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail.
My CYGWIN environment variable is set to ntsec tty and the path has
c:\cygwin\bin in it.
