Re: More on 'setup' fails and breaks pre-existing Cygwin installation: "The Rational Rose Files" & path stuff.

Try running it under strace and see where it's taking it's time. This might take some effort on your part to sift through and interpret the strace output but it will usually point a finger at the culprit. Larry At 02:03 AM 3/25/2004, you wrote: >Dave, > >Well, from the DOS command prompt I tri

Dave, Well, from the DOS command prompt I tried: ---snip--- cd C:\cygwin PATH C:\WinNT\system32;C:\WinNT;C:\WinNT\system32\Wbem bash --login -i ---snip--- and I also tried this in my .bashrc (all one line): export PATH="/cygdrive/c/WinNT/system32:/cygdrive/c/WinNT:/cygdrive/c/WinNT/system32/Wbem

Re: More on 'setup' fails and breaks pre-existing Cygwin installation: "The Rational Rose Files"

I didn't suspect Rational Rose since I've run Cygwin fine when it was my previous Cygwin installation and when Rose had already been installed. Apparently however, from your comments, it looks as if the MKS system makes breaks the Cygwin installation. Is there a way (or a place I could look t

Re: More on 'setup' fails and breaks pre-existing Cygwin installation: cygcheck.out attached.

I was able to run 'cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out' with no problem. 'cygcheck.out' is attached. I do not understand what moving the Cygwin root directory out of the way would entail, but will try if necessary and I know what to do. Please see my other e-mail just sent about the 'bash -norc'.

Re: More on 'setup' fails and breaks pre-existing Cygwin installation: now have prompt, but it's ultra-high-response time.

Please also see the other e-mail of similar subject title that I just sent, with 'cygcheck.out' attached. I did run "c:\cygwin\bin\bash --norc" After a couple minutes the command prompt gave me: C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32>c:\cygwin\bin\bash --norc bash-2.05b$ This command prompt cannot find any

Re: More on 'setup' fails and breaks pre-existing Cygwin installation.

Okay, I don't recall seeing the output of "cygcheck -svr" attached to any of your messages, as requested in . Please *attach* the output rather than including it inline. You should be able to run cygcheck from a CMD prompt. Did you try a clean install by moving yo

Re: More on 'setup' fails and breaks pre-existing Cygwin installation.

The hang itself is indeed a soft hang. I can click out of it using the 'Cancel' button, and then at least sometimes, 'setup' will tell me that installation is complete. Somewhere in these last clicks is where my entire machine was taken down during two of my earlier attempts today. cd c:\c
