Thanks for reporting this problem. No, this is not normal or expected.

Thanks. I guess this doesn't reproduce the problem (freezing), as this is just what I would expect to see when running the script without the PATH set?

When I launch, by a double click on the bash.exe file, a cygwin bash shell (C:\cygwin64\bin\bash.exe) and I display $PATH, I don't find any cygwin directory in the list, but a list of windows directories: /cygdrive/c/Windows/system32:/cygdrive/c/Windows:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/Wbem: ... So, when I execute in the cygwin bash shell the command '/bin/sh -x /etc/postinstall/xlaunch.sh.done', I get the same errors than those I get when I execute 'C:\cygwin64\bin\sh -x /etc/postinstall/xlaunch.sh.done' in the windows command interpreter: the command 'uname' is unknown. If I change the value of PATH with PATH=/cygdrive/c/cygwin64/bin:$PATH and export PATH, the execution of 'sh -x /etc/postinstall/xlaunch.sh.done' don't give any errors. What is the value of PATH when the installation executes the set of postinstall scripts ?

Do it by clicking on the Cygwin Terminal shortcut created by setup. If it didn't create one, rerun setup. On the last screen, check the box asking setup to create one.

As Ken Brown has explained, double-clicking bash.exe does not set the PATH. You should run it from the "Cygwin Terminal" shortcut, which starts a login shell, which reads profile scripts, which set the PATH appropriately. > So, when I execute in the cygwin bash shell the command '/bin/sh -x > /etc/postinstall/xlaunch.sh.done', I get the same errors than those I > get when I execute 'C:\cygwin64\bin\sh -x > /etc/postinstall/xlaunch.sh.done' in the windows command interpreter: > the command 'uname' is unknown. > > If I change the value of PATH with PATH=/cygdrive/c/cygwin64/bin:$PATH > and export PATH, the execution of 'sh -x > /etc/postinstall/xlaunch.sh.done' don't give any errors. > > What is the value of PATH when the installation executes the set of > postinstall scripts ? setup cleans the PATH to start with '/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin', and contain any directories in the existing PATH which start with the windows system directory (e.g. '/cygdrive/cWindows/System32') Again, having an incorrect PATH doesn't reproduce the problem of the script freezing, so I don't think this is the underlying cause of the problem you see. > On 03/06/2016 14:41, Jon Turney wrote: >> On 02/06/2016 17:22, Jean-Paul Bouchet wrote: >>> Please find attached the script /etc/postinstall/xlaunch.sh and the >>> output of its execution (file postinstall_xlaunch.txt). >> >> Thanks. >> >> I guess this doesn't reproduce the problem (freezing), as this is just >> what I would expect to see when running the script without the PATH set? >> >> Perhaps you could try again from a cygwin bash shell? -- Jon Turney Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
