I am trying to run a php script locally placed under wamp folder in cygwin command line but getting the following error - "-bash: php: command not found"

The Local Server I am using is WAMP. The php.exe file is in the path C:/wamp64/bin/php/php5.6.24 and I am using cygwin in windows 10.

Any suggestion regarding this will be highly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

either use a full path `/cygdrive/c/wamp64/bin/php/php5.6.24/php.exe` or add the directory to your cygwin environment – RiggsFolly Nov 17 '16 at 10:23
Just **never** add the path to PHP into your Windows PATH – RiggsFolly Nov 17 '16 at 10:24
Or run the script from a window command window – RiggsFolly Nov 17 '16 at 10:25
Thanks, I have tried running the command from windows console but it has thrown an error - 'php' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. – user2656743 Nov 17 '16 at 10:48
