So what's the error?  Without this as a clue, we can only guess.

How are you running your scripts? (e.g. from a bash shell, a cmd
shell, or from a shortcut)

My WAG is that $PATH in the script is different from $PATH on the
command line.

Please read and follow the instructions in this link:

Pay particular attention to the instruction to run "cygcheck -svr",
*attaching* the output to your reply (i.e. don't paste it in).
