Hello,

I am a complete beginner to Tex, and have recently installed Lyx in conjunction 
with MacTex. 
Lyx doesn’t appear to be recognizing the Tex-distribution though, because as 
soon as I start the program I get a message saying that I’m missing a document 
class. If I go to Document -> Settings, all the document classes are listed as 
unavailable. 

I have got a Macbook Pro 2011 running Yosemite (OS X 10.10). I installed Lyx 
and MacTex after installing Yosemite.

What I have tried to fix it:
- Uninstalling and reinstalling both MacTex and Lyx
- Reconfigure
- Running the configure.py module in the resources folder (almost every line in 
the output is followed by a "no")

I have been in touch with Herb Schulz at MacTex and he concluded that 
everything was running fine on the MacTex-end on my computer.
He came with the following suggestion:

"From some discussions on the TeXworks list it appears that TeXworks has been 
struck by a bug in Yosemite that passes the incorrect PATH value to 
sub-processes. This might be true for Lyx too. Please report this to the 
authors of Lyx."


Best regards,
Anders Engelsvold
