Does it fail if you try to reconfigure once LyX has launched? If so, can you please open View> Messages, then activate "Files Used By LyX", and reconfigure? I see, at the top 00:43:30.779: python3 -tt "/usr/local/share/lyx/configure.py" --binary-dir="/usr/local/bin/" That is the command LyX is using to try to reconfigure. Maybe we need also to check what the environment is at that point? Riki
