Ok, so for now lets focus on the contents of the .bat file. I'll have a look
at the startup of the bat later :)
I now have this:
@echo off
C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
bash -c "cd
/cygdrive/e/solr/apache-solr-4.0-2010-10-12_08-05-48/example/;java
-Dsolr.solr.home=\"./example-DIH/solr/\" -jar start.jar"
But that still gives me the exact same error:
C:\>start_cygwin.bat
bash: line 0: cd:
/cygdrive/e/solr/apache-solr-4.0-2010-10-12_08-05-48/example/: No such file
or dir
ectory
Unable to access jarfile start.jar
C:\cygwin\bin>
However, when I have this in my .bat file:
@echo off
C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
bash --login -i
rem bash -c "cd
/cygdrive/e/solr/apache-solr-4.0-2010-10-12_08-05-48/example/;java
-Dsolr.solr.home=\"./example-DIH/solr/\" -jar start.jar"
I DO get the Cygwin command prompt. What am I missing here?
