Sorry I did not clarify earlier, I have cygin added to my path and I have
not added anything to /cygdrive or otherwise.
C:\tmp>where ls
C:\cygwin\bin\ls.exe
C:\tmp>C:\cygwin\bin\ls.exe /cygdrive
c
I noticed that all the paths that I am having issues with are setup via a
"subst" in windows
You can reproduce this problem easily by following these steps
>From the windows cmd.exe shell type
subst R: C:\tmp
This will create a new drive "R" that will point to C:\tmp
In the windows cmd.exe shell type C:\cygwin\bin\ls.exe /cygdrive you will
see your C drive but no R drive
Open the Cygwin shell
Type ls /cygdrive and you will see both C and R
I also attached the cygcheck.out to this email as requested.
Let me know if there is any more information needed.
