First of all, I recommend to upgrade to the latest Lilypond version,
just rerun setup.exe (don't worry, it'll only upgrade the packages
that have been renewed since last time).

I think version 1.6.4 had a bug such that you had to add a
newline at the end of the file.

Hello,

I am trying to use LilyPond 1.6.4 with Win 2000 Pro (Service Pack 3) running on a P4.

I am not able to get the test (mentioned at http://lilypond.org/stable/Documentation/windows/out-www/installing.html) to work. I type in "ly2dvi -p foo" and basically get "no LilyPond output found for 'foo'". Below is the entire text that is returned.

---------------------------
Running LilyPond...

---------------------------


I would appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this, particularly since I am not well aquainted with Cygwin. Thanks in advance. :)

Shawn
