Have you guys really tried this on Windows Server 2008 x64? The Cygwin python is broken as described in http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-12/msg00441.html . We can't cross-compile, since the configure will try to run the x64 bins on an x86 machine and we are kind of stuck. What am I missing?

My build env was vista 64 bit & win 7beta 64bit.

Some additional notes, the patch mentioned above is no longer needed for petsc2.3.3p15.

My configure line for 64 bit:

Start visual studio x64 command prompt. start cygwin by typing: c:\cygwin\cygwin.bat within that command prompt.

cd into petsc directory.

export PETSC_DIR=`pwd`

make sure win32fe is your path.

Then here's the configure line:

./config/configure.py --with-mpi-include="/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 SDK/Include" --with-mpi-lib="/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 SDK/Lib/amd64/msmpi.lib" --with-fortran=0 --with-x=0 --with-debugging=no --useThreads=0 --with-shared=0 --download-c-blas-lapack=1 --with-cc="win32fe cl --nodetect" -AR="win32fe lib"

You can swap cl --nodetect with icl --nodetect if you are using intel compilers.

Just tried to build with intel compilers. Only issue I had was that you must run it with –with-batch, then restart the configure process…

then follow instructions….
