I have tested that and it seems to be a bug in MikTeX! Here is the problem:
Lyx defines an input path at the beginning of the tex file, i.e.
\def\input@path{{D:/Home/LyxDocs//}}
This is necessary to find included files like image files which are located
say on D:\Home\LyxDocs\Images. Latex is called in a temporary directory say
in C:\cygwin\tmp\lyx_tmpdir(blabla).
In this temp dir a file XYZ.idx and a file XYZ.ind will be created in case
an index is included. It seems, that the XYZ.ind is only available
temorarly, i.e. when the dvi is created this file will be removed.
But latex didn't find the file! Maybe MikTex's latex does only respect the
input@path and therefore does not look in the local directory!
I am not a TEXer, so my question to anyone who has knowledge of latex/tex:
Is it possible to mention more than one directory in the input@path
line?
That may fix the problem!?!?!?
