Hi All,

Setup.exe seems to have worked ok, and the package was
installed, but on my home Windows XP system after I CD
into my project source directory and do a Make, there
are path, and other problems.  Make reports "..no
targets found.." and it can't find "MAKEFILE".  Even
after I use "make -f MAKEFILE" it starts, but has
other problems..

At work, on Windows 2000, everything works flawlessly.

( I'm using Cygwin with PRC-TOOLS for Palm development
) I prefer to run it using a Windows DOS shell, and
run a .bat file:
SET PATH=c:\Cygwin\bin;c:\pilrc-2.8;%PATH%

I compared the results of "mount" for both systems and
they are similar.

It sounds like a "mount" problem, but what else can I
try to get the XP system to work.  I just want to be
able to type "make" and that's it..  As you can guess,
I'm not real familiar with Linux\UNIX commands..

Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks,

Joe Siebenmann

Are you aware that Unix/Linux is case-sensitive?  So Makefile and MAKEFILE
are different files?  If your makefile is named MAKEFILE, try renaming it
Makefile and use make again.

I have been using cygwin with gcc, postgresql, wxWindows, python and many
other things on Windows XP Pro for ~ 6 months.  The only applications that
do not work on the system is CVS and wxPython.
