[CMake] RE: Cygwin cmake - Could not find CMAKE_ROOT

Mon Oct 8 16:38:00 EDT 2007

It looks like the exact same cmake is in both /bin and /usr/bin

% md5sum /bin/cmake.exe /usr/bin/cmake.exe
af465bc5ad9e6157a4898c476bfe62a3 */bin/cmake.exe
af465bc5ad9e6157a4898c476bfe62a3 */usr/bin/cmake.exe

This would be expected given how cygwin sets up these directories:

Sounds like the cmake located at "/bin/cmake" is stale/old, but it's in
your path before the one from /usr/bin...

How did the one at "/bin/cmake" get there?

Maybe just deleting the cmake-related files under /bin and just using
the officially installed ones in /usr/bin is the solution?

	Subject: Cygwin cmake - Could not find CMAKE_ROOT

	I'm having trouble running cygwin cmake 2.4.7-2 on two different
	machines, one running XP, and one Windows 2000.  Here's the
error:

	% /bin/cmake
	CMake Error: Could not find CMAKE_ROOT !!!
	CMake has most likely not been installed correctly.
	Modules directory not found in
	/bin
	     39 [main] cmake 1196 _cygtls::handle_exceptions: Error
while
	dumping state (probably corrupted stack) Segmentation fault
(core
	dumped)

	In each case I've installed cmake using the cygwin setup.exe
installer.
	On the XP machine I just did a reinstall of cmake using
setup.exe, but
	the problem persists.  I'm not sure when this problem began.  It
could
	have started months ago without me noticing.

	/usr/share/cmake-2.4.7/Modules/ is full of .cmake and other
files.
	Looks normal to me.  About 192 files dated "Jul 31 09:51".
	% ls -l /usr/share/cmake-2.4.7/Modules/|wc -l
	194

	I thought maybe I had an environment variable problem.  But if I
unset 
	every environment variable I get the same behavior.

	I get the same error in rxvt, and the usual cygwin bash shell.
But
	cygwin cmake does in fact work (!!!) when run from a DOS window
using:

	  c:\cygwin\bin\cmake 

	I tried running bash, sh, tcsh and zsh from a DOS window and
then
	running /bin/cmake.  In each case - same error.  I never use
tcsh or
	zsh, so I don't have any configuration files for them.

	cygcheck thinks my cmake install is OK (and cygcheck -c says
every 
	installed package is OK)

	% cygcheck -c cmake
	Cygwin Package Information
	Package              Version        Status
	cmake                2.4.7-2        OK

	I updated every installed cygwin package the "current" version a
couple 
	of hours ago.
	% md5sum /bin/cmake.exe
	af465bc5ad9e6157a4898c476bfe62a3 */bin/cmake.exe

	I don't see anything about this problem on the cmake or cygwin
mailing
	lists, so this must be something about my personal setup on
these two 
	machines.  Any help or ideas for solving/debugging this would be
	appreciated.

	Thanks,
	Fred Wheeler
