- Subject: Strange error during /etc/profile
Hi all,
After updating cygwin to the newest version after 3 Month I get a strange error if I start the Xwindow with bash as usual
/bin/find: `standard output': Bad file descriptor
/bin/find: Schreibfehler.
I can trace that to the attempt of /etc/profile to read /etc/profile.d
# Run all of the profile.d scripts
# Note that these are supplied by separate packages
# Ascending alphanumerical order enforced
#next line for debugging
echo before trying to read /etc/profile
if [ -d "/etc/profile.d" ]; then
while read f; do
if [ -f "${f}" ]; then
. "${f}"
fi
done <<- EOF
`/bin/find -L /etc/profile.d -type f -iname '*.sh' -or -iname '*.zsh' | LC_ALL=C sort`
EOF
fi
#next line for debugging
echo after trying to read /etc/profile
after adding the debugging lines I get
before trying to read /etc/profile
/bin/find: `standard output': Bad file descriptor
/bin/find: Schreibfehler.
after trying to read /etc/profile
but if I execute the /bin/find .... line from the xwindow everything works as expected.
So do someone has an idea what's going on here ??
Thanks
Norbert
