This is a new error right? Of did you have it before setting TEXMFCONF/PATH? If it is new, that means you are actually getting furter: I think Evince is reading the texmf.cnf file, but then, when it starts the helper program mktex... that helper program gets confused. >> but it depends pretty much on the settings in your texmf.cnf file. > > We didn't make any change in this file. Well, you should I think. That is the more difficult part and I do not remember exactly anymore what is needed and do not have it around anymore. I think you need to set the search paths to absolute paths, by replacing the $SELFAUTOPARENT occurrences in \\gte-srv\texlive\2009\texmf\web2c\texmf.cnf with an absolute path and also get rid of the "~" refering to some user home dir. >> It can be difficult to get that right with a setup like yours. Good >> luck! > > Thanks! Nevertheless, any idea? :) It really is a lot of trial and error, that is why I wished you "Good luck"!
