Re: ssh-host-config requires cygminires.dll


Hello Igor,

Pardon me for my ignorance about not ataching the cygcheck output.

I have run Cygwin setup.exe once again, and fetched & installed minires and the new versions of openssh/openssl.
The following ssh-host-config -y ended OK, so I tried to start the sshd service:
cygrunsrv -S sshd
and got the same error as before:
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062:
The service has not been started.


Any hints ?

Hello Cygwin users,

I have installed openssl and openssh. Host configuration with:
cd /bin
ssh-host-config -y
tells me about missing cygminires.dll
Thereafter the configuration continues:
[snip]
Host configuration finished. Have fun!

Then I start the sshd service:
cygrunsrv -S sshd
which errors off with:
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062:
The service has not been started.

Where do I find cygminires.dll ?


As always, the Cygwin package search page at <http://cygwin.com/packages> has the answer. Install the "minires" package.

However, you shouldn't have to, because openssh requires minires anyway.
Did you, by chance, unselect it when you installed openssh via setup?  In
general, it's a *bad* idea to unselect anything setup chooses to
automatically install, unless you know exactly what you're doing.


How do I make cygrunsrv to start sshd correctly ?


The two problems are most likely related. Install "minires" and try again.


Belows follows output from 'cygcheck -svr':


For the future, please include this output as an *attachment*, not inline as you did, as requested in <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>. Igor
