Setup.exe fails with a Microsoft Runtime Exception ..


Hi:

I am using the latest version of setup.exe from cygwin.com - 2.249.2.4.

I see the following behavior on both an NT 4 machine with the latest service packs and an XP machine:

1. Setup.exe downloads all the packages successfully. (Both in the download only mode and install from internet mode).
2. After the download, it generates a Microsoft Runtime Exception when it starts to install the first package.

I've tried two suggestions by going through the mail archives:

1. removing setup.ini
2. turning off virus detection software.

Neither of them worked for us.

Regards,
Harsha
