permission denied problem

[peter360]

I am running cygwin on vista.

Recently I downloaded the gnupg installer and tried to run it in cygwin bash, but got this message:
$ ./gnupg-w32cli-1.4.9.exe
bash: ./gnupg-w32cli-1.4.9.exe: Permission denied

If I run the same command the native cmd.exe window, the installer runs (after windows prompt me for administrator password) ok.

Can someone explain the difference here?  I thought I could use cygwin bash to launch native windows applications.  Thanks!

chmod a+x ./gnupt-w32cli-1.4.9.exe

That was the first thing I tried but didn't help.  ls -l shows the permission as "-rxwr-xr-x+", but I am still getting the permission denied message.

I wonder if the "+" means that the file is in currently in use?

No, it means that ACLs are set for the file.
man getfacl
