I can't say why it isn't working as most of the time I avoid Cygwin due to issues like these. One thing you should look into is changing your win_command tasks from
- win_command: cmd.exe /c "start something.exe" to just - win_command: something.exe For example your 2nd task would look like - name: Run chmod script 2 win_command: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe /cygdrive/c/TEMP/chmod2.sh What you are effectively doing in your examples, is starting a new cmd process (cmd.exe) and then getting that to start another executable (C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe), there is no point in this as win_command is designed to run executables and all you are doing is adding another layer that could be causing trouble. As for the issue itself, I would think it could be that you are running it as the SYSTEM account and from a cygwin user permissions perspective it is unable to access the home directory for YRunner. While SYSTEM pretty much has full rights in Windows, I'm unsure how that translates to Cygwin and to me seems to be the reason why it may be failing.
