For various reasons I want to be able to launch Ansys batch runs from Cygwin that I have installed on my Winx64 computer. I have tried many way to do this but no success. I use a command like:

"/cygdrive/c/Program/ANSYS Inc/v130/ansys/bin/winx64/ANSYS130.exe" -j test -np 4 -p stba <test.ans>test.out

What happens is that the analysis starts but hangs almost directly after its initiation. Nothing else happens.

Any help from someone who knows how to launch batchruns from Cygwin would be most appreciated!

Can you upload the contents of the "test.out" file?

I managed to overcome this obstacle at last; changing the UNIX characters < and > for input and output to the -i and -o as used in windows solved the issue.

Case closed.
