Hey, gang--
I've installed cygwin on a new box. After I set it up, I could run it
as administrator.
However, when I logged into a test account, I can't successfully start
it.
Trying to run it under the test account in a DOS shell:
D:\cygwin\bin>bash --login -i
D:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe: *** CreateFileMapping, Win32 error 5.
Terminating.
D:\cygwin\bin>
I tried googling for the message, but couldn't find anything useful.
I ran a 'cygcheck -svr' and attached the output to this message as a
text file.
Does anyone have an idea of what I should try?

Basically, it looks like Win2k couldn't run the application as the test
user. What's the output of "ls -l /bin/bash.exe"? How about "getfacl
/bin/bash.exe"? You may need to change the permissions manually on your
Cygwin tree, using the "chmod -R" command.

See the attached. It is likely the above is the same problem. If so,
then Pierre Humblet has a patch to correct this problem.

What is you gid?
$ id -g

If it is not 544, then edit your /etc/passwd so that it is.

Pierre,
The following change breaks proftpd:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-cvs/2003-q3/msg00237.html
By "breaks", I mean the following failure occurs when a user attempts
to authenticate:
C:\Cygwin\usr\sbin\proftpd.exe: *** CreateFileMapping, Win32 error 5. Terminating.
I was able to workaround and isolate the problem with the attached
"patch" -- that is reverting to the old behavior.
Any ideas on how to fix the problem correctly?
Thanks,
Jason

Here's what you asked:
$ ls -al /bin/bash.exe
-rwx------+ 1 Administ Users 534016 Sep 15 05:47 /bin/bash.exe
$ getfacl /bin/bash.exe
# file: /bin/bash
# owner: Administrators
# group: Users
user::rwx
group::---
group:D-Application Server-RW:rwx

The user having difficulties is named 'EagleGen' and is a member of the
D-Application Server-RW group.

Ok. This pretty much confirms my guess.
A quick fix would be to "chmod -R a+x /bin /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/sbin
/usr/i686-pc-* /usr/lib/gcc-lib && chmod -R a+r /usr /etc /lib /var". I
may have missed some directories with executables. You may also need to
give write access to everyone in /tmp and /var...
The "real" fix would be to make setup create the directories with the
right permissions from the start. I'm not sure this is possible.
Perhaps people with more knowledge of ACLs (Pierre, Corinna, CGF?) will
chime in and offer their opinions...

Hmmm...
I just tried this, and I still can't seem to make it operate. I'm going to have
to
start learning how the Windows Security stuff is put together so I can try some
more.

If it's a security thing, then perhaps setup will create the directories
properly
if I fix the security and then reinstall. At least, I'm hoping so.. 8^)
Thanks for your assistance...

Sure, but what are the right permissions? Some people objet to giving
access to Everybody. The group name and whether the group should have
write access are matters of local preference.
So setup uses the default inheritable acl of the directory under which
cygwin is installed. It works just fine in most cases. I don't know why
in this case group Users got no rights. This is not a typical factory
default, it was most probably set that way for some local reason.
Perhaps the exit message of setup should be to remind the installer
to verify the permissions (PTC).
Or perhaps that's another test that could be added into /etc/profile,
nagging the user "are you sure this is really what you want".

Hmm, I guess it would make sense for setup to check the permissions on the
Cygwin root directory *before* installing any files in it, especially if
it's a new install and it's creating the root directory (I suppose it
would inherit from c:\ in that case, right?). This way, if setup
determines that the root directory *it just created* has very restrictive
permissions, it could warn the user, or even open a Windows security
dialog for c:\cygwin (or whatever the root is) and let the user fix the
permissions before creating more directories or installing files. Again,
this is all PTC, and I just wanted to get this into the archives for now.
