 Hi,

 sorry for the delay, I did not recognize that there was a reply to this
 ticket.

 I've tried what you suggested, but unfortunately it did not help.
 Now, the file that CoinFileIO.cpp tries to open is
 {{{.\..\..\Data\Sample\p0033.mps}}}.

 I tried all the following combinations, and they are failing:
 {{{
 .\..\..\Data\Sample\p0033.mps
 ..\..\Data\Sample\p0033.mps
 ./../../Data/Sample/p0033.mps
 ../../Data/Sample/p0033.mps
 <getcwd()>/../../Data/Sample/p0033.mps
 <getcwd()>\..\..\Data\Sample\p0033.mps
 }}}

 But I found one that is working:
 {{{../../../trunk/Data/Sample/p0033.mps}}}

 The problem seem to be that Cgl tries to use a p0033.mps from the build
 directory which has only a link to the p0033.mps in the source directory.
 Opening such a link does not seem to work.
 I also do not know how cygwin realizes these links. Opening it in the
 Windows Explorer does not work, only cygwin seem to be able to open it.

 You have a suggestion where I should file a bug report now? (Or should I
 just forget about it? :-))
 I'm now convinced that it is not !CoinUtils which is wrong.
 Your suggested change in Cgl/test/unitTest.cpp should go into the Cgl code
 I think.

 Stefan
