Hi,
I am recently setting up the computer room of my faculty
and then encountered the following issue:
Short description:
Change the default home directory via
/etc/nsswitch.conf
and make a new Windows user.
Login to the new user (and do not logout) and launch cygwin.
After opening another application's window, e.g. Explorer,
and try to switch the focus between the cygwin window and the other window.
After once or twice of switch, switching is not smooth
and both the cygwin and the other application seem freezing.
(Still we can launch powershell to restart the machine.)
Procedure to reproduce the issue:
1. Login as an administrator.
2. Install cygwin with the default configuration.
3. In C:\cygwin64\etc\nssswitch.conf, replace
# db_home: /home/%U
to
db_home: /%H/cygwin
and save the file.
4. Create a new Windows user, say "test", without Microsoft account.
5. Logout from the administrator user used so far.
6. Login as the user "test". (Do not logout in the remaining steps.)
7. Launch cygwin from the desktop icon.
8. Run cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck_before_crash.out (to reproduce the
issue, this step is unnecessary.)
9. Open a window of the Explorer.
10. Click the cygwin window. This does not switch the focus to the focus...
11. Click the cygwin icon in the task bar. Probably it switches the window.
12. Run cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck_after_crash.out (to reproduce the
issue, this step is unnecessary.)
13. Click the Explorer window. This does not switch the focus to the focus...
14. Click the "x" mark on the top right of the cygwin window. This
does not close the window...
16. Close the cygwin from the task bar. Probably it closes the window.
For me, the behaviour in the step 11, 14, 15 are rather troublesome.
If the situation is worse, then I cannot even use the start menu to
turn off the machine.
In such a case, still I could launch PowerShell with keyboard and run
Restart-Computer -Force
to restart the machine.
Note that if you logout and re-login after the step 6
or if you are using Windows 10, then the issue is not reproduced.
Environment:
Edition Windows 11 Home
Version 22H2
Installed on 3/29/2023
OS build 22621.1413
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22639.1000.0
I attach the above two log files.
(Some Japanese is included, sorry: some translations are
"なし" = "not applicable"
and
"ローカル アカウント" = "local account")
I would appreciate it very much if someone would solve this issue.
Yours,
Yuta Suzuki

When you change this field from the default, it is up to you to understand and
support the setting.
This setting example is only a suggestion, not meant to be used verbatim, and
means that, for each Windows account at setup or login, under the user's Windows
home directory, you will create a literal "cygwin" subdirectory, to be mounted
by Cygwin at the user's Cygwin "login" as the user's Cygwin home directory
/home/$USER.
Cygwin startup is probably waiting for an automounter to provide the directory
here, just as if this were a Samba, NFS, or Unix network mount, or a Windows
remote profile mount set up under
{$USERPROFILE,$HOMEDRIVE$HOMEPATH}/AppData/Remote/.
Given the use of "cygwin" as a schema also here, this is possibly a poor
example, which could be better documented.

Brian,
Thank you for your reply.

---- I think that usually cygwin automatically makes the directory
assigned as the default home in nsswitch.conf (and indeed it does).
I tried the same experiment with making C:\Users\test\cygwin manually
before launching cygwin,
but the same crash is reproduced.
> When you change this field from the default, it is up to you to understand and support the setting.
---- Well, I know that I want to assign the home directory
automatically to every user of my lab.
I don't know the internal structure of cygwin and so what I can do is
to only announce
"Do not use cygwin at your very first sign-in to the machine.
Re-sign-in before launching cygwin".
But I think this is a bit ridiculous...
> Cygwin startup is probably waiting for an automounter to provide the directory here,
---- Actually, in my experiment, cygwin does make the directory
C:\Users\test\cygwin
and even I could output cygcheck to C:\Users\test\cygwin\foo.out (or
/cygdrive/c/test/foo.out).
The problem is only in the crash of the window system.
Addendum:
Setting Windows environment variable HOME to be /cygdrive/c/users/test
works without the issue,
but it does affect another application in my lab as documented in
cygwin's users guide.
Yours,
Yuta Suzuki

First, the symptoms you describe are not a "crash". Is the terminal
actually still responsive (even if with delay)?
I cannot reproduce such an issue.
Please also cross-test with another terminal, e.g. rxvt, or xterm (after
running an X server).

Perhaps wait until account initialization is complete before starting Cygwin

Are you sure that Windows setup, update, AV update, Edge update, and all the
other junk Windows runs has completed, and the account has been logged in, and
that account setup has completed, before you start installing Cygwin, and before
you start running Cygwin?
Also be aware that if you are on a domain, to top process in each Cygwin process
tree has to access the ADC to load up all the AD related info including all the
group memberships and rights for the user.
This can takes seconds to minutes, if the ADC is not on a close, fast LAN link.
So wait until you see a Cygwin shell prompt before trying anything.
Perhaps try with a more lightweight app like cmd, rather than File Explorer,
which easily locks up systems.
Normally switching to TaskMgr, seeing the issue with, and killing the File
Explorer process tree, resets the system, and restarts File Explorer.
During testing, switch to TaskMgr and check resource usage and waits to see what
is actually causing the issue.
It is often an app in Cygwin's BLODA Big List Of Dodgy Apps:
https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.using.bloda
a "dodgy" app, often an AntiVirus, Malware, or other monitor, that is not
written well enough to do its job without interfering with other apps.
This especially applies to Cygwin as it has to work around Windows limitations
at a low level to implement POSIX compatible syscalls, and AV and monitoring
applications are not always well written.
Do you have any such software operating on these systems, what is it, is it in
our BLODA list; what is the system resource usage and what is in wait states
when the issue occurs?

Thomas and Brian,
Thank you for your replies.
> Please also cross-test with another terminal, e.g. rxvt, or xterm (after running an X server).
--- I tried Cygwin/X in the same procedure. I tried only xterm but
then I found a clearer problem:
After I launch XWin server, I got no response for
"Right-clicking on the "X applications menu" icon in the notification area".
Also, almost all windows get hung up (no normal response for GUI actions).
I can use only keyboard actions to manipulate applications.
Of course, again, signout & re-signin solve the problem completely.
Once I got some warning message, saying "please contact cygwin
developers" or like,
but I couldn't reproduce it and I didn't screenshot it... It said
"/tmp/... is locked" or something similar.
> Are you sure that Windows setup, update, AV update, Edge update, and all the ...
--- The signout & re-signin can be done very quickly, which solves the problem
and so I don't think such applications disturbing the environment.
Also, I found the issue in my lab, but now testing in my private machine,
which is not connected to domain network.
Also, I found that to reproduce the mintty terminal hung up,
it's better to click the blank (I mean black part) part of the terminal window,
not the upper edge of the window. (Then the cursor stops blinking,
which is strange.)
Yours,
Yuta
