At 8:30am PST, setup worked fine. Then at 8:50am PST, the following error occured, and has been occuring ever since:
Cygwin's setup.exe (using a copy downloaded 1/4/2005, 9:20am) fails to load the setup file. After selecting a mirror, it downloads the setup.bz2 file, and upon reading it encounters an error. Message box pops up with: "(null) line 10196: syntax error, unexpected $undefined, expecting STRING."
I tried this with a dozen different mirrors, as well as on two other computers, with no success. Any ideas?
Try the latest setup snapshot: <http://cygwin.com/setup/snapshots/>. Also, did you use "IE5 settings" for your connection? If so, try clearing the IE cache -- you may be using a stale version of setup.bz2.
If this doesn't help, please post the content of /var/log/setup.log.full.
