[sleuthkit-users] cygwin sleuthkit 2.01 compile error

[<ro...@mo...>]

Hello,

I want to install the latest version of the sleuthkit under cygwin on windows XP. Paul
told me to install the latest cygwin. I've done that but keep getting the same compile
errors in windows XP dutch and english versions. I've installed the latest cygwin+
sleuthkit on a windows 2000 client. Everything works fine, but I want the latest version
to work under cygwin with windows XP.

I'm keep getting the same following error messages on different machines with XP
installed;

magic type offset invalid(numerous times) messages.

file: could not find any magic files!
make[2]:***[magic.mgc] error 255
make[2]: leaving directory "/usr/local/sleuthkit2-.01/src/file/magic"
make[1]: ***[install recursive]error 1
make [1]: leaving directory "/usr/local/sleuthkit2-.01/src/file"
make:***[file] error 2


I'm getting a little bit frustrated about it and hope that someone has the solution.

RJM.
