Hi,
I tried to use Lyx to write my master thesis but had several problems.
The most severe one:
!!!Lyx doesn't work any more - not at all!!!
When opening it, it says: "Lyx has been closed because of an unexpected
situation. This is most likely caused by a flaw in the software[...]".
The error information is (debug log):
"TextClassList::Read: no textclasses found! Completed"
(I didn't try reinstalling it yet, but this bug should be fiexed anyhow. So
please, help!! :-))
I worked a little on it before this happend. I found two other problems
during those trials:
1. The programm has problems dealing with tex-files. Because it could
not cope with my tex-files, I tried the following: I exported your
handbook (or another documentation of yours) to tex and imported it
again. There was a failure message - which I unfortunately can't
remember any more.
2. In the tutorial, it sais: "Überprüfen können Sie Ihre Arbeit anhand
der Datei de_beispiel_gelyxt.lyx. Sie enthält denselben Text, diesmal
aber von einem LyX-Profi geschrieben. Die Beispieldateien finden Sie
im Verzeichnis examples des systemweiten LyX-Verzeichnisses" But the
correct path is: examples/de/beispiel_gelyxt.lyx
By the way, I downloaded Version 1.5.1-1.
I'd be very happy hearing from you because I really would like to write my
master thesis with your program (instead of word - for plain tex I am to
dump...).
Good luck with debugging and fixing and thank you for your work! Best,
Anja
PS: In case you are german you can answer in german.
