Check that you have your Cygwin bin directory is in the path.
Cygwin bin directory is (probably) most often located at C:\Cygwin\bin
, but you should check your installation and find its exact location.
Then run the DOS command path:
c:\> path
And check whether your Cygwin bin directory is somewhere in the output.
