Now I can see the bash window(I don't know why), but all applications except 'ls' don't work. It even cannot find my root directory. but it always tells me that "Install complete" so strange!

No, although spaces in user names tend to cause other problems, so it is worth editing /etc/passwd to come up with an alternate username without spaces for use by cygwin. > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Please read and follow these instructions. -- Eric Blake -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

You can start a command prompt using start -> run, enter cmd and enter. Then type c:\cygwin\cygwin.bat and see what errors you are getting.

"sh" in Cygwin is the same as "bash", so that will have (almost) exactly the same behavior. You have a problem with your installation, whether you think setup completed successfully or not. Please read and follow the directions at > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Please pay particular attention to the part that asks you to attach (as an uncompressed text attachment*) the output of "cygcheck -svr" on your machine. Also, as others have said, open a CMD shell, run C:\cygwin\Cygwin.bat from there, and post any error messages you receive.

Huh? Since when does MikTeX conflict with Cygwin? I wonder if cygcheck should add c:\cygwin\bin to the PATH if it isn't there (e.g., when run from CMD and /bin isn't in the system PATH), just so we know if the "Not Found: sh" message means that the bash postinstall didn't complete, or simply that /bin isn't in the PATH. We still haven't gotten the exact error message that the OP gets when running c:\cygwin\Cygwin.bat from a CMD window. Igor -- http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/ \|\ _,,,---,,_ pechtcha@... \| igor@...

And people are always complaining > about seeming-hangs in setup at the post-texmf.sh script. update-info-dir.sh doesn't use makeinfo. Besides, postinstall scripts should not rely on the path containing /bin -- they should use explicit paths (or else set the PATH themselves). Plus, I believe setup prepends /bin to the PATH before running the scripts. post-texmf.sh regenerates all of the binary LaTeX format files -- it's supposed* to take a long time, especially with slower disks. Perhaps it should be renamed to "post-texmf-THIS-MAY-TAKE-A-WHILE.sh" (so people at least get a visual clue in setup)? :-) > > We still haven't gotten the exact error message that the OP gets when > > running c:\cygwin\Cygwin.bat from a CMD window.

Well, let's hope this doesn't take the OP off on a tangent and make him forget to actually post some useful output. :-) Igor -- http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/ \|\ _,,,---,,_ pechtcha@... \| igor@...
