Please excuse me for not sending the cygcheck.out earlier. It is attached this time. This is a native Win32 application written in C++, compiled using the VC++ compiler. It is a console-based application with no GUI component whatsoever. Windows OS version: Windows 2000 Professional Dual Proc Machine. Identical behavior on Single Proc machine with Windows XP Professional. > > > > Looks like it is occupying 100% of the CPU time. > > Is it "occupying 100% of the CPU time" or not? What does the "Task > Manager" say ([Ctrl]+[Shift]+[Esc])? The Task Manager shows it as occupying 49% (on dual-proc) 99% (on single-proc) of the CPU all the time. When run from the cmd-line or bash prompt, it never takes up more than 2-3% of the CPU. > > > > > I installed the cron using 'cygrunsrv -I cron -a -D -e CYGWIN="ntsec > > binmode" -p /usr/sbin/cron.exe'. > > Why? "/usr/doc/Cygwin/cron.README" says: "cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D" I removed the cron service and reinstalled it with the above cygrunsrv command, but still don't see any change in behavior. > > > > > Is there some environment setting I am missing that is causing this problem. > > So what is your "environment setting"? echo $CYGWIN > echo $CYGWIN gives "ntsec". Let me know if more info is needed to debug the problem. Even if I attach to the process using strace, it doesn't give any info because it is a Win32 app. > > Thorsten > -- > Content-Type: text/explicit; charset=ISO-8859-666 (Parental Advisory) > Content-Transfer-Warning: message contains innuendos not suited for > children under the age of 18 > > -- > Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple > Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html > Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html > FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Thanks in advance, Sudheer T --------------50637156DE0A5569E7BED126 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; name="cygcheck.out" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="cygcheck.out" Cygwin Win95/NT Configuration Diagnostics Current System Time: Wed Mar 12 12:20:57 2003 Windows 2000 Professional Ver 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 3 Path: C:\apps\cygwin\usr\local\bin C:\apps\cygwin\bin C:\apps\cygwin\bin c:\apps\Perl\bin\ c:\WINNT\system32 c:\WINNT c:\WINNT\System32\Wbem c:\apps\reskit\ c:\apps\utils c:\apps\launcher c:\Program Files\Real\RealProducerPlus C:\apps\cygwin\bin C:\apps\cygwin\bin c:\apps\WME c:\Program Files\Real\Helix Producer Plus C:\apps\cygwin\bin SysDir: C:\WINNT\System32 WinDir: C:\WINNT CYGWIN = `ntsec' HOME = `C:\apps\cygwin\home\Administrator' MAKE_MODE = `unix' PWD = `/home/Administrator' USER = `Administrator' ALLUSERSPROFILE = `C:\Documents and Settings\All Users' COMMONPROGRAMFILES = `C:\Program Files\Common Files' COMPUTERNAME = `VID038' COMSPEC = `C:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe' DIRCMD = `/a' HOMEDRIVE = `C:' HOMEPATH = `\apps\cygwin\home\Administrator' LOGNAME = `Administrator' LOGONSERVER = `\\VID038' MAIL = `/var/spool/mail/Administrator' MANPATH = `:/usr/ssl/man' NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS = `2' OLDPWD = `/home/Administrator' OS2LIBPATH = `C:\WINNT\system32\os2\dll;' OS = `Windows_NT' PATHEXT = `.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH' PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE = `x86' PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER = `x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 4, GenuineIntel' PROCESSOR_LEVEL = `15' PROCESSOR_REVISION = `0204' PROGRAMFILES = `C:\Program Files' PS1 = `\[\033]0;\w\007 \033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\] $ ' SHELL = `/bin/bash' SHLVL = `1' SSH_CLIENT = `207.188.15.234 3190 22' SSH_TTY = `/dev/tty1' SYSTEMDRIVE = `C:' SYSTEMROOT = `C:\WINNT' TEMP = `c:\WINNT\TEMP' TERM = `xterm' TMP = `c:\WINNT\TEMP' TZ = `PST8PDT7,M4.1.0/2,M10.5.0/2' USERDOMAIN = `VID038' USERNAME = `Administrator' WINDIR = `C:\WINNT' _ = `/usr/bin/cygcheck' HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygnus Solutions HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\Program Options HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2 (default) = `/cygdrive' cygdrive flags = 0x00000022 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2\/ (default) = `C:\apps\cygwin' flags = 0x0000000a HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2\/usr/bin (default) = `C:\apps\cygwin/bin' flags = 0x0000000a HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\mounts v2\/usr/lib (default) = `C:\apps\cygwin/lib' flags = 0x0000000a HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\Program Options a: fd N/A N/A c: hd NTFS 4102Mb 94% CP CS UN PA FC d: hd NTFS 26897Mb 26% CP CS UN PA FC Data g: hd FAT32 3992Mb 1% CP UN GHOST z: cd N/A N/A C:\apps\cygwin / system binmode C:\apps\cygwin/bin /usr/bin system binmode C:\apps\cygwin/lib /usr/lib system binmode . /cygdrive user binmode,cygdrive Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\bash.exe Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\cat.exe Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\cpp.exe Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\find.exe Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\gcc.exe Not Found: gdb Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\ld.exe Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\ls.exe Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\make.exe Found: C:\apps\cygwin\bin\sh.exe 58k 2002/09/28 C:\apps\cygwin\bin\cygbz2-1.dll -
