tried your instructions. Step by step. Same versions you have, but I still get the "cl not found" error.

Hi,
I'm building the source code of Mozilla-firebird for win32. I've all the packages and tolls in place but still I'm getting the below error.
Please help me in fixing the same.
The error is as below
D:\Projects\mozilla>make -f client.mk build
The system cannot find the path specified.
The system cannot find the path specified.

ok, this is a really old post, but I just had the same problem, and this is the top google hit when searching for it.

In my case, cygwin's $SHELL variable was for some reason set to /bin/sh. On another machine I am using, it was set to /bin/bash and everything worked. /bin/sh did not exist, so make was falling back to cmd.exe which would not understand the /cygdrive... paths generated in the makefile

setting $SHELL to /bin/bash or linking bash.exe to sh.exe would solve the problem for me

I used Mozilla 1.6 beta to view mathml but it seems that there is a problem with stretched characters like the radical. It is not a problem of missing fonts, because I have installed all tex fonts.
Can some one help me
