First you'll want to look at <http://cygwin.com/bugs.html>.  The output of
cygcheck as mentioned there (among other things) will likely be quite 
helpful in understanding your installation.  Pay particular attention to 
your mount points and types (text vs binary).  If this doesn't help you
determine the problem, send this as directed by
<http://cygwin.com/bugs.html>
with your script and where you're running it from to the list.  That may 
be enough context for someone here to see where you're going wrong.

Subject: New install, script execution, bad interpreter


I recently re-installed cygwin.  The install went well
but I have one problem concerning executing scripts. 
I usually use the perl that comes with cygwin but for
some work I need ActiveState modules and I have a
script that will call ActiveState as outlined by Mark
Parris 

http://www.cs.unc.edu/~jeffay/dirt/FAQ/cygwin-perl.html

This is a bash script (starts with #!/bin/bash) and
resides at /usr/local/bin/perl.  To call ActiveState I
start a script with #!/usr/local/bin/perl rather that
#!/usr/local/perl.  This has all worked very well
untill the re-install.  Now when I call active state I
get (using the script testAS):   

bash: ./testAS: /usr/local/bin/perl: bad interpreter:
No such file or directory

I've check a number of things.  The scripts are all
unix, dos2unix has no effect.  Running a simple bash
script works fine, althought ?? if I move the script
to my bin directory and back it will not work.
cyg> testSH
bash
cyg> mv testSH ./bin
cyg> testSH
bash
cyg> mv ./bin/testSH .
cyg> testSH
bash: /home/jmapoles/bin/testSH: No such file or
directory
cyg>


Thanks for any help,
John Mapoles
