I have downloaded Arc 3.1 and Racket to my Windows 7 machine. I have solved many errors as instructed in http://www.arclanguage.org/item?id=12397 Now when I enter (nsv) the following error occurs and localhost:8080 comes out blank:

arc> (nsv)
'rm' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Sounds like there's something wrong with your cygwin setup. It can't find rm. Should the cygwin binaries be in your path or something?

Also, cygwin should probably be translating /dev/urandom, since C:/dev/urandom doesn't make sense

  • I'd try installing cygwin, that might just solve your problem – Colin Pickard Mar 01 '12 at 14:25
  • i came across this http://arclanguage.org/item?id=12400 , but actually didn't get how to solve. – ashwinm Mar 01 '12 at 14:34
  • Using cygwin solved the above issue.but,now when i run mzscheme -f as.scm it never returns to prompt(like loop).when i use mzscheme -m -f as.scm it shows "main: not defined or required into the top-level environment" message – ashwinm Mar 01 '12 at 17:31
  • Glad you solved the first part, but I@m afraid I don't know what to suggest next. probably best to start a new question. – Colin Pickard Mar 01 '12 at 22:21
