Try to start LyX anyway and see what happens (the installation script
is normally not needed for LyX to function). If it starts, try to open
the Tutorial from the help menu and create a pdf ( View -> PDF
(pdflatex) )
If it doesn't work try LyX->Reconfigure and restart LyX. If that
fails, try to open Terminal.app and write sudo texhash (you need to be
an administrator), then Reconfigure LyX again (these steps are a
"universal cure" and solves many problems that are TeX-related).
Please report back on your progress (Bennett is working on improving/
integrating the installer, so I think he appreciates any feedback
about problems and solutions).

Hi, Anders,
I can tell Bennett is an expert just by how he asked the question.
The installation failed, so I did not run LyX. Yes, I installed TeX
with MacTeX before LyX.
This is my first time installing LyX. My Mac Version is
MacOSX-10.4.11.

Hi, Bennett,
I checked Console.app, and found nothing related to LyX
installation.
Here is what I found.
Hi Biao,
Bennett is the expert here, but just some questions from me:
- Does LyX work (i.e. start, function and produce pdf:s)?
- Did you install TeX before installing LyX? (I take it you didn't
upgrade, but installed LyX for the first time)
Also which MacOSX-version are you using?
Best regards
Anders
