I have a situation where the uid changes to cyg_server unexpectedly when changing PATH:
$ ( id; PATH=/cygdrive/c/devkit/msys/1.0.11/bin:/usr/bin:; id ) UID=1001(pleezy) GID=513(None) groepen=513(None),544(Administrators),545(Gebruikers),1000(HomeUsers) uid=500(cyg_server) gid=544(Administrators) groups=544(Administrators)
The uid 500 is in itself strange, as it does not seem to belong to cyg_server
The devkit directory looks normal:
$ ls -l /cygdrive/c/devkit/msys/1.0.11/bin totaal 9100 -rwxr-xr-x 1 pleezy None 105472 25 mrt 2008 a2p.exe -rwxr-xr-x 1 pleezy None 162 26 aug 2008 awk -rwxr-xr-x 1 pleezy None 16896 26 aug 2008 basename.exe . . .
It is causing tremendous problems in file access.
Any ideas?
Yes. You've changed the tool you're using when you changed your path.
Try '( id; PATH=/cygdrive/c/devkit/msys/1.0.11/bin:/usr/bin:; /cygdrive/c/cygiwn/bin/id)'.
You are right, of course. Now the question is how to use the devkit properly.
Thanks, Bartels
