That's likely because the cd before the java call failed first, so you're not in the directory you expect to be when java is started. Make sure you don't have a typo in that path to which you're trying to cd. You may also consider replacing the ; in the command with && so that the java command is never run if the cd fails. -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
