I'm guessing it wants the path to the emacs installation folder, not to the bin folder. Are you using these attributes for running configure? <pre lang="bash">$ ./configure --prefix='c:/Program Files/Emacs/emacs/' --with-texmf-dir='c:/Program Files/MiKTeX 2.5' --with-lispdir='c:/Program Files/Emacs/site-lisp'</pre> Also, make sure that EmacsW32 is indeed installed in C:\Program Files\Emacs. :) Have you tried pointing it to C:\Program Files\Emacs\emacs instead?

Are you using these attributes for running configure?

$ ./configure	--prefix='c:/Program Files/Emacs/emacs/' 
		--with-texmf-dir='c:/Program Files/MiKTeX 2.5' 
		--with-lispdir='c:/Program Files/Emacs/site-lisp'

Also, make sure that EmacsW32 is indeed installed in C:\Program Files\Emacs. )

Besides, I putted bin's directions (Miktex, Ghostscript and emacs) in the path of windows. Thanks a lot. Hi, again

I installed de make package, but now appears this.

checking if C:\Programs......\Emacs\emacs\bin is XEmacs... cat ./conftest -1648: No such file or directory
configure:error:Unable to run C:\Programs....\Emacs\emacs\bin, aborting!

I am using cygwin, with ghostscript and Miktex 2.5. Besides, I putted bin’s directions (Miktex, Ghostscript and emacs) in the path of windows.

Thanks a lot.

Are you using Cygwin? I thought this was the Linux based thread. If you are using Cygwin then you have to use Setup.exe (the same one you used to install it initially - or you can re-download it from the website) and then just pick make from the list of packages.

There might be quite a few. In fact you will likely find more errors like this when running configure - it just means you need to track down the necessary packages and install them prior to compiling. :) It meeds you need to install the make package - you know, the one you use to build software from source. )

If you are on Ubuntu/Debian you can just try:

aptitude install make

or

apg-get install make

On Fedora/Red Hat you can do:

yum install make

On Mandriva you can do:

urpmi make
