Pretty vague description: Works Just Fine For Me! Without access to your Azure server VM, build, install, update, and terminal logs, we have no idea what you may be running and what error you may be encountering. When you report problems you must be very explicit and specific about what you are typing and seeing, and the edition, version, release, patch level of Windows you are running e.g. "Windows Server 2019 Datacenter: Azure Edition ... a new Windows Server image on Azure that has a unique build number and codebase", plus all the details on the "Upgrade to latest OS build", to which few or none of our support volunteers may have access, in which case you may have to participate in running tests, and reporting results accurately, to assist those trying to help you. In addition, those service VMs could have almost any level of security restrictions applied during setup, so it is unlikely but possible that Cygwin may just be unable to run effectively under such an environment. Many Cygwin users have encountered problems with defective commercial "security"/monitoring products "BLODA" in Cygwin's Big List of Dodgy Apps (a list https://cygwin.com/faq/faq.html#faq.using.bloda of applications that interfere with the normal working of Cygwin by intrusively injecting themselves in the system call chain) where the only solutions were to have them ignore all Cygwin programs and DLLs, deinstall the products, or use a different system. Please attach as plain text files: * the output log from your Azure server VM, of running the Cygwin diagnostic command: $ cygserver -hrsv > cygcheck-hrsv.log as requested at "Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html", at the bottom of all posts to the mailing list * the contents of the initial /var/log/setup.log.full from running the Cygwin install * the summary /var/log/setup.log from Cygwin installs * the log /var/log/mandb-index.log from updating the man-db index during post-install * any changed man or man-db configuration files under /etc/ or ~/. * any commands affecting man in your ~/.bash_/zsh_/.../profile startup scripts * a terminal log of your commands entered and output including errors encountered, or * copy and paste the *actual* commands entered into the terminal and also the *verbatim* output and error messages generated. That way the support volunteers have a chance of diagnosing what may be wrong with your installation, and suggesting what actions may be taken to resolve your problems, without requiring access to your system, or the ability to read your mind. ;^> -- Take care.
