To: Cygwin MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="0-533303291-1120569908=:22388" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Virus-Checked: Checked by ClamAV on sourceware.org --0-533303291-1120569908=:22388 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Id: Content-Disposition: inline Hi, I'm having problems installing cygwin onto my PC. This is not the first time I've installed cygwin on this machine, but I wanted to do a clean install, so I deleted my C:\Cygwin directory, removed the icons, and deleted the registry entries, as suggested in the FAQ. I then downloaded the full install package set to a local directory, using setup.exe, and did an install from the local directory. I ran setup, said "Install from local directory", selected All Users/Unix mounts, took the default packages and added X-start-menu-icons (and the dependencies this added) and set it going. Once the install was complete, I started the bash shell. I got no message about running mkpasswd, or about my .profile file, or anything - just a prompt. However, none of the Cygwin directories were in my $PATH, my CWD was /usr/bin, no mounts were set up, and generally things weren't working right. Checking the mailing lists, I found message http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2005-04/msg00987.html which describes symptoms just like mine. I checked, and I had installed base-passwd. I also ran mkpasswd -l -c >/etc/passwd and mkgroup -l -c >/etc/group, but that made no difference that I could see. I have tried an install on my home PC, and this seems to work fine. However, on the PC with the problems, I am logged on as a domain user (with local administrator privileges) and HOMEDRIVE is set to O: (a network drive). I can't easily change these things (I don't have access to the local admin account), unfortunately. I attach the output of cygcheck -s -v -r - I hope I got the right format. I apologise if I've missed an explanation of my issue somewhere - I didn't have a lot of luck searching the mailing list (beyond the message quoted above), probably because I wasn't sure what search terms would help :-( Thanks in advance for any assistance, Paul. ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
