Description Alan Young 2008-12-27 07:48:12 UTC

"sox.exe - Unable to Locate Component. This application has failed to start because cygwin1.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem"

Comment 1 Andy Grundman 2008-12-27 07:54:55 UTC

Oops, their win32 build ships with cygwin1.dll, but I was able to run it on my system without that file in place.  Maybe for me, it is installed system-wide due to having cygwin installed.  I guess we can just include that DLL in the Bin folder.

Change 24422.

Comment 2 Bryan Alton 2009-01-03 07:54:36 UTC

Although cygwin1.dll is in the SVN, the cygwin1.dll is not being copied into the windows nightly distribution so the problem remains and bug is not properly resolved.

Comment 3 Andy Grundman 2009-01-03 08:09:02 UTC

I just checked SqueezeCenter-7.3.2-24475.ZIP and it has the dll file.  Only the exe build is missing the file.

Comment 4 Alan Young 2009-01-04 03:40:32 UTC

From vogelius:

Finally resolved the issue... the cygwin1.dll file has to be placed in the directory where sox.exe resides, i.e. :\Program Files\SqueezeCenter\server\Bin\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
 
sox.exe does not "find" the file if it resides in the \Bin directory...
 
FYI Build 24422 does not include cygwin1.dll - I had to download and install the entire cygwin application to get a copy...
 
The good news is that the 96/24 files sound GREAT on SB3 now!!!

Comment 5 Michael Herger 2009-01-04 22:07:56 UTC

The Windows installer had a statement excluding *cygwin*. Change 24492 removes this filter. There shouldn't be any other cygwin files in the build tree anyway.

Comment 6 Michael Herger 2009-01-05 00:01:39 UTC

.dll is in place with revision 24492

Comment 7 James Richardson 2009-01-16 08:33:29 UTC
