Command not found eventhough it is on one of the PATH directories


Hello,

I'm having a strange problem with Cygwin and the PATH variable.

I try the following:

/home/corrada
6 % jython.bat
jython.bat: Command not found.

/home/corrada
7 % /cygdrive/u/dl/Jython/jython/dist/jython.bat
Jython 2.2a0 on java1.4.2_05 (JIT: null)
>>> ^Z


/home/corrada
8 % printenv
!C:=C:\Documents and Settings\corrada\Desktop
!S:=S:\cygwin\bin
ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users
APPDATA=C:\Documents and Settings\corrada\Application Data
CLASSPATH=.;U:\rexo\src\rexo\class;U:\rexo\src\rexo\lib\jdom-b10.jar
CLIENTNAME=Console

COMSPEC=C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe
HOMEDRIVE=C:

stem32/Wbem:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Common Files/Adaptec
Shared/System:/cygdrive/c/Emacs20.3.1/bin

PATHEXT=.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH

Why is the shell unable to find jython.bat eventhough it is in one of the
PATH directories?
