I've done this with 1.7.10 still in place, once with portapps user
(the failure case), and with my own regular (domain) user. Comparing
the two outputs, there is an obvious ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED error in the
failure case:
69 126706 [main] sh 3824 build_env: envp 0x61266AB4, envc 47
37 126743 [main] sh 3824 child_info::child_info: subproc_ready 0x234
589 127332 [main] sh 3824 seterrno_from_win_error:
/netrel/src/cygwin-snapshot-20111219-1/winsup/cygwin/spawn.cc:692
windows error 5
59 127391 [main] sh 3824 geterrno_from_win_error: windows error 5 ==
errno 13
74 127465 [main] sh 3824 child_info_spawn::worker: CreateProcess
failed, Win32 error 5
196 127661 [main] sh 3824 stat64: entering
Any further hints?
