Singular depends on CYGWIN as a runtime environment - unfortunatly, another version of CYGWIN was used for 2-0-0 wrt. 1-3-8. That means, that we recommend to removed the old Singular - at least the old cygwin environment (I don't know, if Singular-1-3-8 runs with the new cygwin environment). The 2 cygwin version cannot coexist on one system... > Should I unistall 1.3.8 before installing 2.0.0? Yes, you should, because of the different cygwin environment. > Another surprising fact: > 1.3.8 was installed in C:usr... > while 2.0.0 in C:Program File.... > Is it normal? Yes, to be more compliant to Windows standards - but it's only a proposal, you may install it in any directory. > For the moment I have uninstalled 2.0.0 and use > 1.3.8 on another computer... The installation does in principle the following things: - copy all selected files to the selected directory (proposal c:Program FileSingular) - under Win95/98: edit c:autoexec.bat to set PATH and HOME (does your system use other means to set PATH and environment variables ?) - under WinNT/2000: edit registry to set PATH nand HOME - under Win95/98: reboot, in order for the changes to take effect Here are the things to do/to check: - the file cygwin1.dll should be in a directory with your path (c:Program FileSingularbin usually) and no old version of cygwin1.dll should be around on the system (use the command "path" in a terminal window to check the PATH) - the directory containing cygwin1.dll should be in your path (try to run c:Program FileSingularbinbash.exe) or check c:autoexec.bat - the environment variabele HOME should be set: check c:autoexec.bat email: [email protected] Posted in old Singular Forum on: 2001-05-25 15:40:10+02 |

another possibility is, to put cygwin1.ddl directly into the windows-directory (move or copy it to c:windowssystem32 or c:windowssystem or whatever your default directory for dll-files is). email: [email protected] Posted in old Singular Forum on: 2001-05-25 16:21:41+02 |
