Before the conversion using cygpath, it returns the same as in the error: /home/kcella/bin/myscript.pl But I think, there is some confusion here. My script will correctly execute the program using Activestate perl. The example I gave is for when I have no wrapper script and just create a symlink in /usr/bin/perl that points to /c/Perl/bin/perl.exe. The root cause of the example is the reason for the initial post. The wrapper script was the solution I happened to choose to get around the path problem, but quickly found out that it does not work properly with: perl -e 'print join "\n", @INC, "\n";' > Oh and what is PATH set to? /home/kcella/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/c/Perl/bin/:/c /WINDOWS/system32:/c/WINDOWS:/c/WINDOWS/System32/Wbem -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
