Hello,

I get several »Undefined control sequence«-errors – could anybody please tell me, what
the problem might be? I add a minimal example and hope it is useful.

Thanks very much and well, happy Easter nonetheless, all best :)
Jess




Result:
Cannot find '../Nextcloud/MaM/2020_MaM/Diss4.bib'!
Changing to Minimal and selecting other font (Dejavu instead of non installed "Stempel Schneidler Std") I got no errors. This is with the master version of lyx (2.4).

With the same modification also no problem on lyx 2.3.

Hello,

thanks for your quick reply and sorry for not changing the path in the document. I have now also changed the font now and have updated to 2.3.4.2 on OSX 10.14.6 – but still get those errors.

I hope it is helpful, what is written in the error-description:

    \select@language {german}

    The control sequence at the end of the top line

    of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have

    misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct

    spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,

    and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.


Thanks

Jess


Like Kornel, it compiles with no problems on my system (Linux Mint) after the changes he mentioned. From the error message, I wonder if babel cannot find a German language package. Which TeX system are you using? If TeXLive, do you have texlive-lang-german installed?

Dear Paul,

thanks! I still had TeXLive-2019 installed. After an update now things work fine. But nonetheless: waht is tex live-lang-german? In TeX Live Utility I could see I have TeX Live manual (German) installed. I suppose you mean this?

Best
Jess


There are a number of TeXLive packages for language support, including texlive-lang-german. They might more properly be called bundles of smaller LaTeX packages. See, for instance, https://trac.macports.org/wiki/TeXLivePackages. You might already have some/most of the packages in texlive-lang-german, but installing it is an easy way to make sure you have them all (and thus, hopefully, all the ones you need).

Paul
