This should not be necessary... Did you do something special, besides
installing in a non-standard directory?
Nothing special. Actually I installed it a first time with the default
dir (c:/Program Files/Lyx14) but it was failing.
Seeing in the list that some people had problem with the space in the
pathname, i reinstalled it in c:/appli. Same problem.
The problem is
Unable to determine the system directory having searched
C:/appli/LyX14/bin/C:/appli/LyX14/Resources/
LyX should have searched in C:/appli/LyX14/Resources/ instead.
Yes.
Note that this message is confusing:
- did it search separately c:/appli/lyx14/bin, and
c:/appli/lyx14/resources (in which case it should have found the correct
dir), and did the error printing by concatenating the 2 dirs?
- or did it search a single dir of the form
c:/appli/lyx14/bin/c:/appli/lyx14/resources/ ?? Note that if i pass a
bogus dir to the -sysdir option, it reports that dir on a new line.
