I ran setup.exe (version 2.510.2.1), first selected to 'Download Without
Installing' and received the updated packages. I ran setup.exe again
and selected 'Install from Local Directory. In Cygwin's Progress window
after the parsing of the ini file, Cygwin crashes. Windows XP shows a
Dr. Watson window two times where I click Don't Send. The Windows XP
SP2 Event Viewer log shows this cause:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Application Error
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1000
Description:
Faulting application setup.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module
ntdll.dll, version 5.1.2600.2180, fault address 0x00043345.
I tried the following without success:
* Renamed and then deleted the setup.ini files in the FTP directory.
* Renamed the FTP directory where the packages were downloaded.
I do not know much about troubleshooting Cygwin as it has always updated
without any problems.
I read the Cygwin FAQ, searched in the cygwin and cygwin-apps archives
seeing similar errors with no solutions or workarounds, and searched the
Internet via Google for possible soutions.
Is there any workaround or solutions for this problem?
Thank you.
