I finally got my new copy of from the new CVS repository setup correctly (I
think - at least it compiled) and I am getting the parse errors as well - I
also downloaded the MD5 version and I get the parse errors there as well. I am
running on Win2k and was up to date on my installs until this started
happening. Could it be the MD5 logic causing the parse errors and/or is there
a specific setup.ini we should be using from somewhere.

Actually it appears the first error that occurs is a parser stack overflow.
That is all I see if I selected download from Internet but if I select Install
from Internet then I get the Parser Stack Overflow at line 2175 and then get a
lot of invalid lines in setup.ini (asking about the most recent setup) and then
more parser stack overflow and more invalid lines.
Thought I would post just in case it helps.

Well, as I cannot build myself a new setup I tried the internet install once
more.
I used the 1.3.10 (install now!) setup but it freezes after reading .ini

How do you define "freeze"? It's possible that you should just let it sit for
a while. It may just be taking some time.

First: No need to be so drastic. If you just run setup, it will allow you to
upgrade cygwin on a component-by-component basis.
Second: This is puzzling. I suggest trying the setup beta release at
http://www.cygwin.com/setup-snapshots/.

I just uninstalled cygwin 1.3.16-1 from my Windows 2000 system after being
advised that I should be using 1.3.17-1. Now when I try the automated setup
routine at http://cygwin.com/ ("install now"), it runs as far as the "select

unresponsive. I've tried several times with different mirror sites. Could this
be related to an incomplete uninstall? I followed the instructions in the FAQ

Try creating a directory off root like c;\Cygwin_Downloads that doesn't
have any spaces in the name, use that directory instead, and see if that
helps. It shouldn't matter, but I've always been cautions about spaces in
names. If it does help, it would be an interesting data point.

I couldn't comment unless you tell me what you deleted.
Theoretically you shouldn't have to delete *anything* though..

As always, I deleted everyting I could find relating to any previous

Perhaps I am overlooking something that I must clean up first ?

The setup.exe versions are not linked to the cygwin1.dll versions.
Download a new setup.exe and it should be ok.

OK, that last message did not come through very well. Here's another try...

Interesting. By clicking on this link, I got the 2.194.2.24 version.
However, using http://cygwin.com/setup.exe downloaded the 2.194.2.26
version. Then when I went back to http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe,
it downloaded the 2.194.2.26 version. Must be a caching issue with
my proxy. Anyway...
The 2.194.2.26 version works for me on selecting the "Download from
Internet" option, while the 2.194.2.24 version was hanging at a parse
error. One funny thing about the 2.194.2.26 version is that when
selecting packages, there is a second "Cygwin Setup" window that says
"This space left intentionally blank". I'm not sure what that's all
about. It doesn't seem to cause any problems.
However, the "Install from Local Directory" option (after doing the
Download from Internet) gave me quite a few errors. First, there were
multiple windows with lots of parse errors. After clicking OK on four
or five of them, the install continued and appeared to work. During
the install, there was a pop-up that said "Can't open (null) for
reading". I clicked OK and the install continued. When the install
finished, everything appeared OK, but I'm very apprehensive about all
the errors and pop-up windows.
The first line in the "Parse Errors" window is:
setup.ini line 3297: parse error, unexpected $undefined
Thereafter, all lines look like this:
setup.ini line 3297: unrecognized line in setup.ini headers (do you have the latest setup?)
The line numbers keep incrementing up to 3332. Clicking OK brings up
another window that looks the same but the last line number is higher.
As I said before, after four or five windows, it continues with the
installation and completes it successfully. The strange thing about
this is that there are only 2216 lines in the setup.ini file (from
mirrors.rcn.net).
There's nothing interesting in the setup.log or setup.log.full files.
I'm running Windows NT4, Service pack 5.

Neither, it was right hand recursive exhausting the yacc stack. I've
rewritten the lines rule to correct this.

The problem got worse, now it doesn't even go to the package selection
screen.
The only thing I see is a frozen window that says: this space intentionally
left blank.
I think I must give up on cygwin.

I also experienced this problem using setup 2.194.2.24. setup.ini downloads
to 98% (96k/98k), the CPU spikes for several seconds (450MHz), and then focus
shifts to an invisible "Parse Error" error dialog, as indicated by the
Taskbar. Hitting Enter dismisses the dialog and brings the user back to the
"select a download site" setup screen. There's nothing interesting in the
setup.log file.
The problem goes away if you download setup 2.194.2.26 from
http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe.

OK but if anyone is going to be able to help you, more information will be
necessary. Perhaps you can tell the list the exact steps you take. It's
also worthwhile to examine the setup log files and report anything strange
in there to the list. We really can't help you determine what's wrong at
your end without knowing more about what's happening.

I tried to use the KDE sourceforge ftp with the latest cygwin setup.exe, but
it messed up my Cygwin install.
So I must reinstall cygwin but setup.exe freezes everytime.
I tried with the setup.exe that comes with local packages and the normal
internet install setup.exe.
I am desperate ! I cannot continue :(
