As I asked here, did you mean this command with the -x option?
Or otherwise the tar command? This would be sensless because I don't want to extract anything...

Yes, run the problematic script - the name of which is not quite clear to me from post#1 - as indicated. If it is the last script in post#1, be aware that the echoes overwrite the log file every time, and that tar's output is not redirected to that log file. The fact that notepad++ might save the script in DOS format might not play a role in cygwin...
