title: configure command not found cygwin
body: <p>This question has been asked many time but I am not able to resolve the problem from them so I am asking</p>
  
  <p>I had installed Cygwin a few days ago.I tried using <code>./configure</code> command but it says</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>-bash: ./configure: No such file or directory</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I tried using</p>
  
  <pre><code>where configure
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but I got the output</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>INFO: Could not find files for the given pattern(s).</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>then I tried <code>grep configure</code>and I got this output</p>
  
  <pre><code>/etc/bash_completion.d/configure
  /usr/i686-pc-cygwin/sys-root/usr/share/libtool/libltdl/configure
  /usr/share/ELFIO/configure
  /usr/share/libtool/libltdl/configure
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried to export the path and then run the <code>./configure</code> but it also didn't worked.</p>
  
  <p>I find no executable file named as <code>configure</code> in my cygwin <code>bin</code> directory.</p>
  
  <p>Does it mean that I have to add <code>configure</code> file manually?How can I correct it?</p>
  
  <p>NOTE :- <strong>I had also tried <code>sh configure</code> but it also didn't worked</strong> </p>
