I am running Vista Home Premium x64. After checking the BLODA
<http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq.using.html#faq.using.bloda>, I turned off
Windows Defender. I also tried running rebaseall, but that still didn't
help. Below is a list of the steps I followed to try to install cygwin,
and the errors I got. I also had trouble running cygcheck (see #7, below).
1. Turn off Windows UAC installer detection (by changing
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\EnableInstallerDetection"
from 1 to 0).
2. Turn off Windows Defender completely.
3. Check that I have no other programs on the BLODA list installed.
4. Run setup.exe (v2.573.2.3) as Administrator. Install for "All Users"
in "C:\cygwin", selecting only the default set of packages.
5. The installer hangs running "/etc/postinstall/update-info-dir.sh".
Cancel the installer.
6. View "setup.log.postinstallXa03212": lots of errors like " 8
[main] bash 2504 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before
initialization, retry 10, exit code 0x1000000, errno 11". The log is
attached.
7a. Run "Start > Accessories > Command Prompt" as Administrator.
C:\Windows\system32>cd \cygwin\bin
C:\cygwin\bin>cygcheck -s -v -r > ..\cygcheck.out
7b. This seemed to be taking a long time. I checked the output of the
log file. It looked like it had gone into infinite recursion trying to
scan the registry. There were several MB of lines like:

This is NOT an accurate reflection of what my registry looks like. I
have a registry key
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Wow6432Node" and its only
contents are a single key called "Microsoft".
7c. Ctrl+Break cygcheck and re-run it without the registry scan. The
output of this run is attached.
C:\cygwin\bin>cygcheck -s -v > ..\cygcheck.out
8. Rebase the dlls:
C:\cygwin\bin>ash
$ /bin/rebaseall
$ exit
9. Rerun the installer as Administrator. Select no additional packages.
The installer hangs running "base-files-mketc.sh" with "died waiting for
longjmp" errors again. The file "setup.log.postinstallXa02332" is attached.
Now what? This is a brand new machine, so there isn't a lot of software
on it. I have installed the tools I need for work, (which include
VisualStudio 2005, MiKTeX and WinEdt, TortoiseCVS, etc.). Maybe I have a
"dodgy app" that isn't on the BLODA? How would I go about out
investigating that?

Yep, I've reported this before.
Also, 'cygcheck' still indicates that Vista is unsupported, and
AFAIK, that's no longer true.
AFAIK, there are certain Cygwin package (initial?) installs that
can't be accomplished on Vista (32b or 64b) without turning off
UAC (User Account Control).
See: Control Panel / User Accounts / Turn User Account Control On or Off
Reboot (What Microsoft OSs do best, or at least most frequently ;-))
Good luck, Mr. Phelps,
Lee

Just for fun, run the 32 bit regedit (C:\Windows\SysWOW64\regedit.exe)
and have a grand day out looking what a 32 bit application sees when
looking into the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node. Have
something to drink with you, it could take some time...
FWIW, I'm running a Vista 64 test machine and Cygwin runs fine.

Yes, Cygwin runs fine on my Vista 64 b, also, because of you and the
other fine folks who make it so. Thank you,
very much.
cygcheck, however, does not run fine when dealing with the registry.
'cygcheck' claims not to support Vista 64b under 1.5, and maybe that's okay.
And, Vista 64b UAC is sometimes problematic for installs, which is NOT a
Cygwin problem, AFAIK.
Thanks, again,
Lee

I applied a patch to cygcheck in CVS which avoids the recursion due to
the funny behaviour of the Wow6432Node in 32 bit mode.

Thanks. I compiled that (under cygwin on an XP machine) and it worked.
Cygwin now works on my 64-bit Vista machine too. I decided to start
over, so I deleted the entire c:\cygwin directory and manually removed
all of the Cygnus keys from the registry. When I ran Cygwin's setup
again, it worked. I didn't need to rebase any DLLs. I even tried the
whole process again with Windows Defender enabled, and that worked too.
So, I'm happy that it works now. I would be happier if I knew why, but I
can no longer reproduce the problem I had before.

I'm glad Cygwin is working on Vista 64 for other people, but it's still
not working for me. Turning off UAC completely didn't make a difference.
Is there anything else I can try? Is there anything I can do to help
determine what's causing the problem? I'd really like to get Cygwin
working. It's not mission-critical for me, but I've been a Cygwin user
for about ten years and I've really gotten used to having it available.
Alexander
P.S. Sorry to break the thread by not replying to the original message,
but I had some mail configuration issues and don't have the other
messages in this thread to reply to. I also couldn't figure out how to
get the mailing list's "get" feature to work. Can anyone give me a
working example of that?
