From cygwin website, I downloaded the setup.exe file and then ran it. I chose the first option "Install from Internet". The files are getting downloaded, and then it tries to install the program. When the installation is 99% complete, it's getting stuck there with no progress. I waited for a long time, but nothing happened. So I had to cancel the process, and on doing so I got a message "Installation complete". There was no shortcut created on desktop or start menu, although I found directories created under C:\cygwin and also the registry entries for cygwin. On trying to reinstall it (after uninstalling by deleting reg entries and C:\cygwin), I encountered the same problem (again at 99%). This time I noted down the message in the progress window. "no package... /etc/postinstall/post-texmf.sh" I could locate this particular file (4 KB) in my computer. Can anybody please help. I'm using Windows XP Pro Version 2000 SP2, and an Intel Xeon processor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am getting same problem with my new installation with current(latest) setup.exe. But my setup hangs with message.... Running... No Package /etc/postinstall/sysvinit.sh And I kept that stage upto almost 3 hours and at last I canceled it.. I m trying this since last 3 days... But yet my setup is not completed.. Help me as soon as possible... One more question... Where can I get old setup.exe??? thanx -- Pradip K.
