$ ./configure
–with-szlib=cygdrive/c/cygwin64/usr/src/zlib-1.2.11-1.src/zlib-1.2.11 --prefix=C:/Users/s1897502/hdf5/build
–enable-cxx
–enable-fortran

and I am getting the following error :

are you using the right source package ?
It seems you are using one with CRLF termination in the script
and hdf5-1.10.6.tar.bz2 I used have not such problem.

configure: WARNING: ‘missing’ script is too old or missing

Thanks in advance for your help
