Summary: MSYS installer doesn't pop up cmd window? Product: Wine Version: 1.1.13 Platform: Other URL: http://www.mingw.org/wiki/msys OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: download, Installer, source Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: austinenglish@gmail.com

When install msys, it floods the terminal with: This is a post install process that will try to normalize betweenyour MinGW install if any as well as your previous MSYS installs if any. I don't have any traps as aborts will not hurt anything.Do you wish to continue with the post install? [yn ] pi.sh: [: ==: unary operator expectedDo you have MinGW installed? [yn ] pi.sh: [: ==: unary operator expectedWhen you install MinGW I suggest you install it to C:/mingw(replace C: with the drive of your choice). Then create an/etc/fstab file with a line that has a value similar to:C:/mingw /mingwPress ENTER to continue Normalizing your MSYS environment.You have script /bin/awkYou have script /bin/cmdYou have script /bin/echoYou have script /bin/egrepYou have script /bin/exYou have script /bin/fgrepYou have script /bin/printfYou have script /bin/pwdYou have script /bin/rviYou have script /bin/rviewYou have script /bin/rvimYou have script /bin/viYou have script /bin/viewMinGW-1.1 has a version of make.exe within it's bin/ directory.Please be sure to rename this file to mingw32-make.exe once youve echo installed MinGW-1.1 because it\s very deficient in function.Press ENTER to continue.C:\msys\1.0\postinstall>pause Press Return key to continue:

Towards the end. It looks like something that should be in a cmd prompt (haven't tested on windows yet). The line endings are also wrong, but that's another bug.

--- Comment #1 from Jeff Zaroyko jeffz@jeffz.name 2009-01-24 22:07:54 --- I think this affects several apps, eg. Visual Studio when you attempt to open a cmd window also doesn't create a window - you just see the output of cmd.exe on the terminal used to start wine.

and it does further nothing whatever you type

--- Comment #5 from Jason Edmeades us@edmeades.me.uk 2012-11-20 18:12:17 CST --- I started looking into this. Basically, the installer (a GUI app) calls 0024:Call

KERNEL32.CreateProcessA(00000000,00476110 "c:\msys\1.0\postinstall\pi.bat pi.sh",00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00000000,00478644 "c:\msys\1.0\postinstall",0033fa0c,0033f9fc) ret=00437a11

Whats interesting here is the dwCreationFlags dows not include CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE, BUT on windows you get a new console and on wine you dont. I've done some testing with a variety of combinations of cmd/GUI launching cmd/GUI launching cmd/GUI

Overall the bug seems to be that CreateProcess should do something like: - Is the program being launched flagged as a console app - If it is, see if there is a console allocated to the existing process - If there is no existing console, default to CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE for the create

Note I also tested with AllocConsole from a GUI prior to a createprocess for a console app, and as far as I could tell, the CreateProcess does not generate a new console, it uses the one Allocated to the GUI.

Now there is also a 2nd problem this bug shows, which is that when running in bare mode (ie not in wineconsole), the line endings / echoing does not work nicely - Have not looked into that at all, should be a 2nd bug once this is addressed.

--- Comment #8 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,

still present.

--- snip --- $ wine ./MSYS-1.0.11.exe ... c:\msys\1.0\postinstall>..\bin\sh.exe pi.sh 0066:fixme:netapi32:NetUserGetInfo Level 3 is not implemented 0066:fixme:netapi32:NetUserGetInfo Level 3 is not implemented This is a post install process that will try to normalize betweenyour MinGW install if any as well as your previous MSYS installs if any.

or to better reflect the GUI scenario (Windows):

--- snip --- $ wine explorer /desktop=shell --- snip ---

Start menu 'run' -> 'browse' -> 'MSYS-1.0.11.exe' (execute)

No console window is shown at all and the installer finishes.

The patch from comment #6 was committed as https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commitdiff/2005be6dc92c0943ede01525ce... ("shell32: Use CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE when SEE_MASK_NOCONSOLE is omitted.") in 2014.
