Hi myuser01, On a bash or similar shell, you need to include the location to the executable file in order to execute it. If the executable directory is not in one of your bin folders you can execute it as part of your PATH.
try the following: $ pwd $ echo $PATH $ export $PATH=$PATH;`pwd` Other people may prefer a .bashrc or similar .bash_profile files. I found this post on google when searching for executing bash files in apache. http://old.nabble.com/How-to-run-bash-shell-script-in-cygwin--to11690723.html#a11690723 Regards, Jose Torres :working: :music: myuser01 wrote: > > I have a script called "batchjob" that looks like this: > #!/bin/bash > echo 'I was here' > > -rwxr-xr-x 1 c10066 mkpasswd 48 Jul 19 09:30 batchjob > > But when I try to execute it from the cygwin shell I get this: > $ batchjob > bash: batchjob: command not found > > How do i execute a bash shell script from within cygwin? > > Thanks > -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/How-to-run-bash-shell-script-in-cygwin--tp11690723p30854132.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
