Are my environmental variables the problem?
They are a problem, yes. Don't set HOME. Unless you know why you're doing it, you don't want it. Setting your PATH as above is certainly not what you want either. I'm going to recommend you undo things that you've done and then read and follow: >Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html This has the guidelines for reporting problems to the list. If you follow these, people here will have a better idea of what your configuration is and where your problems are. Please try to be as specific as possible with your problem descriptions, as we can only know what you tell us. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
