Thanks Christopher, I added /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin to my path and it worked. It is strange that I never faced this problem now that I am using Cygwin for more than 4 yrs now..

Pls help Sorry. I somehow missed the fact that cygwin.bat was missing. I don't know what's going wrong but the cygwin.bat file is supposed to be installed automatically by setup.exe. I believe it should be created just by double clicking on the "Install Cygwin Now!" link on the cygwin web page and by doing nothing else but just clicking on "Next" repeatedly until setup.exe is done. This is, however, just a PATH issue. Set the PATH to include c:\cygwin\bin and the cygwin commands will be found, just like on UNIX. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
