I downloaded Cygwin and Python 2.5 version. Now I want to build on aws A deep learning computer (follow this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rjRfW4JM2I)

If I run pip install awscli I get this (which is good)< /p>

However, when I want to configure everything and enter aws, I get:

$aws
C:\Users\Marc\Anaconda2\python.exe: can't open file'/cygdrive/c/Users/Marc/Anaconda2/Scripts/aws': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

I followed Ryan Chase’s answer on the right track (but due to insufficient credit on stackoverflow, I cannot comment on his answer)

After 4 steps: apt-cyg install python,
which python will return the required usr/bin/python.
However, running python -i from cygwin still opens my local anaconda python instead of cygwin python.

I finally used this workflow:

>Click to uninstall awscli
> wget rawgit.com/transcode-open/apt-cyg/master/apt-cyg
>Install apt-cyg/bin
> apt-cyg install python< br>> wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
> /bin/python~/ get-pip.py
>/bin/pip install awscli
>/bin /aws

So every time I use /bin/…force cygwin to use its local version of the program. This is very troublesome, maybe I will look into a better way to make cygwin prefer its own version of python instead Not the anaconda version.

I also need to change the installation file from windows to unix style, so:

> apt-cyg install dos2unix> dos2unix setup_p2.sh> dos2unix setup_instance.sh> Then finally, bash setup_p2.sh
