Thanks to the three of you for your help. I eventually solved the 
problem by running the test.ly manually (rather than just clicking on 
the file on the desktop). That gave me some error info from the Cygwin 
pane, specifically Win32 error 487, which allowed me to do a Google 
search. Installing rebase from Cygwin and running the command Rebaseall 
did the trick. The site URL which suggested this, for your reference, was:

Thanks again for taking time to advise me.
