Dear Bug Team,
I came across the following program on windows installation of
Xemacs 21.4.21
TeX mode commands tex-buffer, tex-region do not work
Error message displayed
Searching for program: No such file or directory, /bin/sh
On the other hand, shell command latex file.tex works OK
Please help!

Is the environment variable SHELL set to anything? How about ESHELL? If
neither is set, does setting one of them to "cmd.exe" help?

Dear Jerry,
You helped me a great deal. Now tex-file works alright except for one
minor glitch. After I try to execute the same tex-file command for the
second time I get an error message: processp, nil
If try tex-file again, it works again. So every other time it works and
every other time it fails.
I am not sure if it is of relevance but, just in case, I attach here the
process-environment value:
Value: ("windir=C:\\WINDOWS" "USERPROFILE=C:\\Documents and
Settings\\Anatoli" "USERNAME=Anatoli" "USERDOMAIN=AMPLPC29"

I don't see anything suspicious in your environment. Please try the
following. Set the variable debug-on-error to t (this can be done via the
menu, although I've forgotten where that menu item is on 21.4). Then make
the processp, nil error occur. If you get a debug buffer with a stack
trace, please email that stack trace to us. If you don't, then set
debug-on-signal to t (which can also be done via the menu) and try again.
Thanks!

Error message displayed
Searching for program: No such file or directory, /bin/sh
Probably "/bin/sh" is hard-coded into tex-mode somewhere.
One to solve this is to install Cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/) and
its bash shell package, and check that the program /bin/sh does exist
(with "ls /bin/sh"). If not, make a link to bash with "ln -s `which
bash` /bin/sh".
I assume you are using the XEmacs AUCTeX package, since it is listed
in your system configuration. The AUCTeX package is in the process of
being upgraded. If it is a problem with AUCTeX, we'll try to make
sure that it is fixed in the upgrade.
To help us in this process, please confirm that you are using AUCTeX.
visit the TeX file that you had the problem with and type Ctrl-h f
tex-buffer RET. This will describe the function `tex-buffer'. Please
tell us the *full* file name including all directories that the
function was loaded from.
On the other hand, shell command latex file.tex works OK
Which shell are you using? "echo %SHELL" or "echo $SHELL" should
tell
you if you are using a Cygwin or MSYS shell.
