- Subject: Windows 8: commands in sh prompt are not working
Hi,
I'm using cygwin? 1.7.11 on Windows 8 64 bit consumer preview
Using cygwin via the shortcut C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe works fine.
But I'm also using cygwin via Jenkins which call sh.exe directly.
When running sh.exe, we get the prompt but many commands are not working.
They return immediately without echoing anything:
sh-4.1$ ls
sh-4.1$ echo $?
2
sh-4.1$ gawk --version
sh-4.1$ echo $?
1
sh-4.1$ scp --version
sh-4.1$ echo $?
1
-> no outputs for these commands. Running the same commands in the
"mintty" terminal works fine.
Somme commands are working,? "find" for example.
Same setup is ok on Windows 7.
Is it a known problem, or is there something to setup to have sh
working properly ?
Thanks,
Bertrand.
