These look like problems at least: Found: C:\WINDOWS\system32\find.exe Found: find.exe Warning: C:\WINDOWS\system32\find.exe hides find.exe Found: C:\WINDOWS\grep.exe Found: grep.exe Warning: C:\WINDOWS\grep.exe hides grep.exe Found: C:\WINDOWS\sed.exe Found: sed.exe Warning: C:\WINDOWS\sed.exe hides sed.exe I'd recommend fixing this so that at the very least the Cygwin versions of these utilities is found first by 'setup.exe'. The easiest ways to make this happen is to either delete the versions in "system32" or move them somewhere that isn't in the default path. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
