Sorry for answering my own post, but I thought others might find this fix useful.
The problem was I had (setq preview-TeX-style-dir ...) in my .emacs file from when I used to use UNIX and apparently on windows this caused the main tex directories not to be read by tex. Consequently, the article.cls file was not being loaded and MikTeX was dying with a strange error message. On 3/23/07, Emin.shopper Martinian.shopper <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Dear Experts, I downloaded and installed the version of emacs for windows with auctexbuilt-in along with miktex, but I get the following problem when trying to compile a file: ------------------------- Running `LaTeX' on `report' with ``latex -interaction=nonstopmode "\input" " report.tex"'' This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.30.6-2.2 (MiKTeX 2.5) entering extended mode LaTeX2e <2005/12/01> Babel <v3.8g> and hyphenation patterns for english, dumylang, nohyphenation, ge rman, ngerman, french, loaded.
