Thanks.

It did this on a prior version too. I upgraded to the current version in hopes it was solved. I will try a snapshot on one of the systems, but for a general solution for our group, I am reluctant to use a non-production version.

After installing cygwin, I install some cygwin applications as Windows

   error 1062:
   The service has not been started.

The service shows up in the Windows services but not as started. Trying to
start the service fails because it is already running.


I've reported this in <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-10/msg00808.html>.
This seems to be fixed in the snapshots.

The only way I have found to clear up the situation is to format the
hard drive and reinstall Win2k which is a bit drastic. I hope there is a
better solution. I tried searching the archives but did not see a
solution or even the same problem.


Try a snapshot (<http://cygwin.com/snapshots/>).
