Cygwin doesn't have the access required to execute the process because of some reason. It is up to you to examine the reason. Why should we be bothered with anything other than EACCESS? When you reported the issue the first action you took was to determine why you couldn't execute a Windows program. That was the correct action, hammering this list with your wishes isn't gaining you sympathy from those that use and support it. -- Earnie -- https://sites.google.com/site/earnieboyd -- 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
