Hello,
I had a working cygwin installation for several years on this machine.
But then I decided to remove and reinstall it. (I reinstalled cygwin
only, not the whole machine). Since the reinstall, regtool refuses to
work. It always complains that it can not find the specified file.
Strange enough, cygcheck _is_ able to read information from the
registry.
Here are examples of what I get:
$ regtool get '/HKLM/SOFTWARE/Cygnus Solutions/Cygwin
Error (2): Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.
$ regtool get '/HKLM/SOFTWARE/Cygnus Solutions/Cygwin/mounts v2'
Error (2): Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.
Any ideas how to track down this problem?
Two thoughts:
1. Try running this under 'strace' to see if you can spot something.
2. Remove the values from your CYGWIN environment variable and
reboot.
Either of these two thoughts may lead nowhere but that's the best I can
come up with.
