configure problem

[Manuela Grindei]

Hi,
I tried to create a jdk image on my laptop (Windows 10), but whenever I try to run configure, I get the following error:{ jdk8u }  » bash configure                                                                                                                               /cygdrive/c/openjdk/jdk8u 127
Running generated-configure.sh
configure: Configuration created at Wed Aug 17 23:35:11 BST 2016.

Does anyone know how this could be fixed?
Cheers,
