![]() Sometimes these problems can be worked around, by temporarily or partially disabling the offending software. IBM Security Trusteer Rapport (see its home page Various programs by Wave Systems Corp using wxvault.dll, including Embassy Trust Suite and Embassy Security Center Sonic Solutions burning software containing DLA component (when DLA disabled) Norton/McAfee/Symantec antivirus or antispyware Logitech webcam software with "Logitech process monitor" service Kerio, Agnitum or ZoneAlarm Personal Firewall Sometimes these hooks are not implemented in an entirely transparent fashion, and cause changes in the behaviour which affect the operation of other programs, such as Cygwin.Īmong the software that has been found to cause difficulties are:ĪVAST (disable FILESYSTEM and BEHAVIOR realtime shields)Ĭitrix Metaframe Presentation Server/XenApp (see Citrix Support page) Security software, in particular, such as anti-virus, anti-spyware, and firewall applications, often implements its functions by installing hooks into various parts of the system, including both the Explorer shell and the underlying kernel. These problems, when they have been traced, often appear to be caused by interference from other software installed on the same PC. Among the most common symptoms they report are fork failures, memory leaks, and file access denied problems. What applications have been found to interfere with Cygwin? >įrom time to time, people have reported strange failures and problems in Cygwin and Cygwin packages that seem to have no rational explanation. Look out for BLODA (Big List Of Dodgy Apps.) and uninstallīLODA - A list of applications that interfere with the normal working of Cygwin by intrusively injecting themselves in the system call chain Like I said, this is just a work around and may be the best/only solution. I repeated this setup about 5 times before successfully installing cygwin. For example, after canceling the snagged install at 94% (mentioned above), I ran the setup file again and got to 95% before the install snagged again. So after fiddling with the install a little more, I discovered that if you close the frozen install, and re-execute the setup file, it forces the install past the point where it got snagged the previous time. So what I'm looking for is how do I help the installer continue from this point? What do I need to do to go in cygwin and give it the extra motivation it needs to finish the job. In this instance, it was and the install was at 94%! So close!!! This is almost always a different package at a different point in the install. and everything goes great until a certain package get's tripped up and causes the install to hang. ![]() I don't change any of the "Resolving Dependencies" (whatever those are).I don't specify any additional items for the install (I thought it would best to keep it as simple as possible after running into this problem multiple times.).Use "C:\Users\Austin\Downloads" as the default local package directory.Use "C:\cygwin" as the default root directory for all users.Here's a play-by-play of what I'm doing and where it hangs on me. ![]() When this happens, the install literally freezes and doesn't budge a "bit." I've read that this is a somewhat common problem but like I said, I've never come across it before. However, I've never experienced the install hanging during the install process. ![]() If you used Disk Utility from macOS Recovery, you can now restart your Mac: choose Apple menu > Restart.So I have used Cygwin on and off for the past few years and I've installed it a handful of times. The order of repair in this example was Macintosh HD - Data, then Macintosh HD, then Container disk4, then APPLE SSD. Keep moving up the list, running First Aid for each volume on the disk, then each container on the disk, then finally the disk itself. If you're asked for a password to unlock the disk, enter your administrator password.Īfter Disk Utility is done checking the volume, select the next item above it in the sidebar, then run First Aid again.If the button is dimmed and you can't click it, skip this step for the disk, container, or volume you selected.If there is no Run button, click the Repair Disk button instead.In this example, the last volume on the disk is Macintosh HD - Data.Ĭlick Run to begin checking the selected volume for errors. ![]() For each disk that you're repairing, start by selecting the last volume on that disk, then click the First Aid button or tab. ![]()
