OpenSSH 5.9p1-1
syslog-ng 3.2.1-1
Dear Community,
Im just started with Cygwin and want to run openSSH. Im getting slowly furher with knowledge and success and had to install Cygwin therefore several times. I couldnt setup the openSSH-config again (with the ssh-host-config cmd). the flow of the script looked quite good but the service wasnt startable; I always got message cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062.
Now I can help by deleting the privileged user cyg_server from /etc/passwd before running ssh-host-config.
I can now logon locally to the server by issuing ssh <userid>@localhost. But Logon from remote system fails with permission denied for some reason and I would like to find out by writing messages to syslog. syslog-ng was running; I changed the sshd_config to LogLevel DEBUG3 but nothing happened to the log. So I tried to restart syslog-ng as well; stopped it with cygrunsrv E syslog-ng but starting failed with same error cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062 as before sshd. But here is no user I can delete from /etc/passwd.
So I removed the service (cygrunsrv R syslog-ng) and installed it again:
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ cygrunsrv -R syslog-ng
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ /bin/syslog-ng-config
Overwrite existing /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf file? (yes/no) yes
/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf has been renamed to /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf.old.
Creating default syslog-ng configuration files in /etc/syslog-ng
Warning: The following function requires administrator privileges!
Do you want to install syslog-ng as service?
(Say "no" if it's already installed as service) (yes/no) yes
The service has been installed under LocalSystem account.
To start the service, call `net start syslog-ng' or `cygrunsrv -S syslog-ng'.
Check /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf first, if it suits your needs.
Configuration finished. Have fun!
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ cygrunsrv -S syslog-ng
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062:
The service was not started.
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ cygrunsrv -VQ syslog-ng
Service : syslog-ng
Display name : CYGWIN syslog-ng

stdin path : /dev/null
stdout path : /var/log/syslog-ng.log
stderr path : /var/log/syslog-ng.log

Then I tried to start it with the privileged user:
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ cygrunsrv -R syslog-ng
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ cygrunsrv -VQ syslog-ng
cygrunsrv: Error querying a service: OpenService: Win32 error 1060:
Der angegebene Dienst ist kein installierter Dienst. (means: The specified service is not an installed service)
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ cygrunsrv -I syslog-ng -d "SYSLOG-NG" -p /usr/sbin/syslog-ng -a "-F" -u cyg_server
Enter password of user `WS885383\cyg_server':
Reenter, please:
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ cygrunsrv -VQ syslog-ng
Service : syslog-ng
Current State : Stopped
Command : /usr/sbin/syslog-ng -F
stdin path : /dev/null
stdout path : /var/log/syslog-ng.log
stderr path : /var/log/syslog-ng.log
Process Type : Own Process
Startup : Automatic
Account : .\cyg_server
u005078@WS885383 ~
$ cygrunsrv -S syslog-ng
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062:
The service was not started.
And now I have no idea but to install the whole environment (Cygwin) again.
I would appreciate to understand and fix whats going on here.
