Re: Cannot run psql under Cygwin

Okay, many thanks Larry.

I forgot to mention I was using the MinTTY console.
It works when I use the regular Cygwin console.

I found that:

    When I run it from the DOS console, it works fine.


In that case, you need to run Cygwin's bash from a console (i.e. use
'cygwin.bat' as provided by 'setup.exe') and run 'psql' from there.
See the 'tty' option for the CYGWIN environment variable in the Users
Guide for more details:
