Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuwin32/forums/forum/74807/topic/1832242 By: inkarkat Same problem here, gnuwin32 find version 4.2.20. The problem (expanding the wildcard using matches in the current dir, resulting in "Paths must precede expression" error) manifests itself on Windows Vista Enterprise SP1 (x86) and Windows 7 Ultimate (x64), but not on Windows XP Prof. SP2. That's why user gnuwin32 couldn't reproduce this on XP; you need Vista or Windows 7. __ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=4837862 By: jon_moore I think I've seen the same thing. It looks like the gnuwin32 find 4.2.20 (my version) is expanding the wildcard using matches in the current directory. That gives the kind of errors grumbled00k saw if there is more than one match. So with a file structure like this ./foofoo ./Child/foofoo ./Child/foobar Running find . -iname 'foo*' from . returns only the first two files Running from ./Child gives the "Paths must precede expression" error Running from .. returns all three files This looks like a bug. It is a difference in behavior compared to GNU find 4.1.7 on linux and the cygwin version of GNU find 4.2.11 (which always return all three files) __ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Read and respond to this message at: https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=4677182 By: gnuwin32 The examples you gave, all work fine on my system (MS-Windows XP SP2). For example, find . -iname "*n*" lists all the files in the current directory and below with an n in their name. So you'll have to give a more specific example before this can be investigated further. __ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.

Any path, like "." or "C:\users\user\documents".
Try searching for "*nnn*", "*nn*" or "*n*" in the default path (".").
Only "*n*" gives the error.
