bash:csh:Command not found

[ram001]

Hi guys

I am new to cygwin. when I am working on cygwin. I created a directory name
Scripts byusing mkdir Scripts in Cygwin. After that I created a csh file
inside the Scripts directory by using cat > Creator.csh. In this file i got
my C shell script. When I am trying to execute the script by using the csh
Creator.csh.It is throwing me an error like
bash:csh:command not found. I hope my shell is set default to Bash . how to
run my csh script. Can any one help me out. Thanks

When sending a problem report, please read and follow the problem reporting
guidelines found here:

<http://cygwin.com/problems.html>

This keeps people on this list from having to make too many guesses about
what you've done and what your system configuration is.

Absent that, my WAG is that you have CRNL as line-endings in your script,
probably as a result of using an editor that insists on or wasn't
configured to not use them. See the "Editors" category in 'setup.exe'
for some editors you can install and that will not force you to CRNLs.

You will also find reading the bash release announcement illuminating:

Please read what Larry said about problem reports. However, at a guess,
<http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.setup.html#faq.setup.what-packages> would also
be helpful in your case.

Also, the C shell is called 'tcsh.exe', not 'csh.exe'.

~ $ csh
bash: csh: command not found
~ $ tcsh

Hmm.

$ cat /etc/postinstall/tcsh.sh.done
#!/bin/sh
rm -f /usr/bin/csh /usr/bin/csh.exe /usr/bin/csh.lnk
ln -s tcsh /usr/bin/csh

How bizarre, it must have failed for me and the OP in some way. I've also
got it as a .done but there's no sign of any link there.

Well, I would actually first verify that you installed tcsh/csh.
Having people tell you that you are unable to run csh scripts because
you don't have csh is kind of errm embarassing.

You need to run setup.exe again, using "Install from internet", and look for
tcsh under the 'Shells' category, or in the 'Full' view on the package
chooser. Click it to 'Install', then 'Next' your way through to the end.
