I did a system update yesterday (pacman -Syu --force
because of /etc/skel/.vimrc
), then msys got crashed:
+ double click on mingw64_shell.bat, MinTTY
complained could not load icon from '/msys2.ico'
;
+ close this messagebox, in the mintty window, it shows /bin/bash: No such file or directory
;
+ try running bash --login
in the bin
folder, I got 0 [main] bash 3428 cygwin_exception::open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to bash.exe.stackdump
;
+ I've tried sh
, python
et.al., some of them ended with such a stack dump;
+ and the dumped file is, for example, like this:

Because I can't make the shell ready, pacman
can not run correctly, thus I don't know how to upgrade or downgrade all those packages, to make msys2 at lease the same before I did the update.
My environment is windows 8.1 x64, codepage 936. This issue exists in another PC with windows server 2012 R2, codepage 936. The system is up-to-date.
BTW, I've found that in dash, the root it reports is not the msys2
folder, but its parent folder. (i.e., for example, I've unpack the basic system to C:\msys2
, thus dash is here: C:\msys2\bin\dash.exe
, and in this dash, /
is actually C:\
but not C:\msys2
).
Do you read about new MSYS2 files layout in ML?
If no read please:

I think you need subscribe to our ML to get messages before you break anything)
