Michele To my knowledge, people haven't run Cactus under Windows for a long time. I suggest to remove all the Windows bits and start from scratch, as you did.
Can you point us to more information (or maybe add a page to the Einstein Toolkit wiki <https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Main_Page>?) that explains what software needs to be installed to a basic Windows system before one can compile Cactus this way? If we want to support Windows, then it should be easy for others to follow your steps. I have a Windows desktop at work; if it's not too complicated, I may just try things there as well. In the end, we should then test Windows automatically and regularly. -erik > On Mar 24, 2015, at 18:46 , Michele Mottini <[email protected]> wrote: > > Running Cactus under Windows 8.1 using Cygwin did not work 'out of the box' > for me.
