Hello everybody I have just installed cygwin 1.5.20-1 on a fresh machine (4 fresh machines in fact), along with the ImageMagick package.
If I run ImageMagick's convert, mogrify or identify tools (and possibly others, I've not tried), they silently fail: ---- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ convert -version [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ convert -version && echo working [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ convert -version || echo not working not working ---- This is the same on all the machines I've tried. I believe convert.exe is failing with exit code 53. I've got a makefile that calls convert.exe, and if I run it, it says "make: *** [(target)] Error 53" The equivalents from GraphicsMagick fail in exactly the same way. Another set of machines (identical hardware, OS, etc) that had cygwin installed on it a few months ago all work fine: $ convert -version Version: ImageMagick 6.0.4 Tue Aug 10 2004 Q16 <http://www.imagemagick.org> Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2004 ImageMagick Studio LLC These machines run cygwin all day, every day, and have had no previous upsets. On one of these good machines, I ran setup.exe and let it install new versions of whatever it wanted. If I ran convert.exe afterwards, it failed in exactly the same way. If I run setup.exe on another 'good' machine, I can see from the 'select packages' page which packages would be updated. ImageMagick is not in that list, and neither is any library that is obviously required. The full list is: Package old version good version binutils 20050610-1 20060709-1 coreutils 5.94-1 5.97-1 curl 7.15.1-1 7.15.4-1 cygwin 1.5.19-4 1.5.20-1 gzip 1.3.5-1 1.3.5-2 libcurl3 7.15.1-1 7.15.4-1 make 3.80-1 3.81-1 mingw-runtime 3.9-2 3.10-1 openssl 0.9.8a-1 0.9.8a-1 openssl097 0.9.7i-1 0.9.7j-1 python 2.4.1-1 2.4.3-1 run 1.1.9-1 1.1.10-1 rxvt 20050409-1 20050409-3 suite3270 (none) 3.3.4p7-1 tcltk 20030901-1 20060202-1 texinfo 4.8-2 4.8-3 vim 6.4-4 7.0.035-1 xorg-x11-base, xorg-x11-bin, xorg-x11-bin-dlls, xorg-x11-bin-Indir, xorg-x11-etc, xorg-x11-libs-data 6.8.2.0-1 6.8.99.901-1 xorg-x11-fenc 6.8.1.0-2 6.8.99.901-1 xorg-x11-fnts 6.8.1.0-3 6.8.99.901-1 xorg-x11-xwin 6.8.2.0-4 6.8.99.901-1 On one of the new machines, I tried reverting the cygwin package back to 1.5.19-4. I ran convert.exe again, and I got a Windows dialog box complaining about not being able to find cygdpstk-1.dll. Can anybody give me some pointers on what would be a good thing to try next? I'm out of ideas.
