Greetings,
I have just re-installed (wipe the drive and installed from the ground
up) my computer and went to put Lily back on it. The other day when I
first installed it I used the Windows binary as opposed to using Cygwin.
Today I went with Cygwin. After installing Cygwin (v 2.457.2.2) I had
two problems:
Problem 1) First I opened a bash window and typed Lilypond. I got an
error message stating that the application failed to start because
cygcrypt-0.dll was not found. After a quick google, I found that I
should have installed the cyrpt package too. I did this and all was
fixed BUT... shouldn't this have been added as a dependency? Is this a
Lilypond problem or a Cygwin problem?
Problem 2) Regardless of what files I try to use with Lilypond I get an
error that the file could not be found. I used the command Lilypond
test.ly As a result I get:
GNU Lilypond 2.6.0
warning: can't find file: 'test.ly'
error: failed files: "test.ly"
There are no files generated (log, etc)
For the record, I am using Windows XP Home SP2. Cygwin is installed to
c:\cygwin. The files are in C:\cygwin\home\Randy and I downloaded my
Cygwin packages from the mirror http://mirrors.kernel.org. During the
install the only thing I checked on was Lilypond. I have tried this
three times. After each failure I deleted the folder C:\cygwin,
restarted, and tried again.
Thanks,
Randy
Randy
