I now have
PATH=/bin:~/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/bin/i686-pc-cygwin32://c/NTRESKIT://c/Program
Files/Rational/common://c/Program
Files/Rational/ClearCase/bin://c/WINNT/system32 and my recursive scripts still
doesn't work. Have you tried moving /bin back to where it was and retrying the
build to see if it still works?

Hi All,
Okay a bit further along now. Turns out the build script was adding to the
PATH environment variable so that /bin and /usr/bin were no longer first
(third and fourth respectively). Why this made sh.exe a not found I do not
know but there you go.
The second problem with the INCLUDE path environment variable going AWOL is
still kicking around. I'll hunt some more, maybe this is just my new config
and I hadn't notice a few minor changes....

Subject: Shell spawning and environment problem on W2K
Hi All,
The following doesn't work:
$ make
make: sh.exe: Command not found
make: *** [all] Error 127
The following does sort of:
$ make SHELL=/bin/sh
[ all ] fracviewer-dep
make[1]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/f/bmw/Dev/ft'
cd FracViewer; make fast-dep
make[2]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/f/bmw/Dev/ft/FracViewer'
[snip]
The problem with this version is the environment variables for various
include paths are EMPTY in the build but are defined in the original shell.
It would appear that environment variables are not being passed to the
other processes spawned by make (????).
I've checked the list archive and it seems others have similar problems
with sh in June, July and August. I have just finished re-installing the
latest version from my local mirror, same problem. Unfortunately a solution
was not posted.
What makes it even weirder is I have w2k on two machines. One exhibits the
problem with either an older release or the latest one. The other has the
older release and works fine (I dare not change it to the newer release at
the moment).
Anyone have a clue what's going on?
Rob
