RE: install question

[Lester Ingber]

No, the download goes OK, but then setup.exe bombs with:
The exception unknown software exception (0xc00000fd) occurred in the application at location 0x77f8e621.

I've had this problems for weeks.

My setup.log looks similar to that reported by others:
    ------------8<------------ top cut -> bottom ------------->8------------

Please download the new setup from the web page - I believe the version you are 
running had a problem parsing the setup.ini  file because of some single quotes 
and also mutual dependencies.  

Just go to the web page and download the newest or get the source from the cvs 
and make.

I had similar problems after removing a herddisk from my box.
I had some mounts which point to this harddisk (usr/src) and
everytime I tried to install with setup.exe it crashes.

Look if all your mounts are valid.

I'd really rather not support home-built setup.exe's. Please only
suggest that folk download the one linked to by the Install Cygwin Now!
link.

Looks like cygwin setup was not able to download ANYTHING from the internet.
Maybe it's due to the way you ask setup to access the net: you seem to have
clicked to "Direct connection". Try to click rather on "Use IE5 Settings";
obviously you were able to download setup.exe so you have an access to the
net that works, so if possible use the same settings.

Joseph,

Make sure you do what Peter suggested, IE - I personally do a download from 
internet and then an install from local directory, but others do just an install 
from the internet.  Although it appears as three install options it is really 
only two - download and install or straight install.  

The big thing I question based on what I noticed in your setup.log above is what 
mirror site did you select and also what packages did you choose to download or 
what packages did the chooser show you it was going to download.  I ask because 
I don't see the mirror site listed nor do I see any listed packages and when 
setup downloads files it stores the downloaded names in the setup.log or 
setup.log.full as well as the site name.

Re: install question

[Peter Buckley]

Joey,

Sorry I was so sarcastic, I could have said what I did much nicer. I 
have been struggling with that lately in email.

Thanks for the details- but they need to go to the list as well so you 
don't have just lowly old me helping. I replied to your email address 
(and the list, cygwin@cygwin.com) because I wasn't sure if you were 
subscribed or not. Some people prefer to not get two copies of the same 
mail (my mailer filters it) but even if you do reply to me, make sure 
you "reply all" so the list can see the details and hopefully the 
resolution of your problem.

I don't know specifically what the problem is- but I have some 
suggestions to try, and maybe someone else on the list will have some 
other suggestions on how to help.

When you ran the setup.exe program (the icon that those guys provide) 
and proceeded with the install, did you choose

Install from Internet
Download from Internet
Install from Local Directory

?

I would recommend trying to just "Download from Internet" first, and 
then when you know you have successfully downloaded all the packages you 
want, run setup.exe again and "Install from Local Directory" to install.

Also, I would try a different download location- C:\Documents and 
Settings\Administrator\My Documents\downloads looks like the place where 
you downloaded setup.exe to, and I am guessing that it is your local 
package directory as well. I recommend moving setup.exe into another 
folder, a simple one with no spaces in the path, such as C:\tmp. Those 
who are in the know, correct me if I am wrong. Setup.exe may handle 
spaces in path names just fine, but it might help rule out an errata if 
you try to run setup.exe from C:\tmp or C:\temp.

Also, have you read the FAQ? There is a section called "What to do if 
setup fails?" that might help you out.

Let us know how it works,
Peter

Help us out here, what steps did you perform to do the install and what is the 
error message.

Re: install question

[Peter Buckley]

I have some ideas about how our government should do things. I also have 
ideas about how we should have 4 day workweeks and get paid the same.

What kind of ideas were you looking for? I could probably have an idea 
about anything if you told me something more specific.

Like if you wanted me to offer an idea about what I thought would help 
you install cygwin, maybe you could tell the list the steps that you 
took to install (from the beginning when you went to cygwin.com) and 
when you get the error message, and what the error message says. Then I 
might have an idea about what the problem could be, or even ideas that 
might help fix the problem. And there might be other people on the list 
with ideas, too. Just think of all the help you could get if you told us 
what your problem was.

Full of ideas,
Peter
