Hi,
I recently intalled the win32 version of Lyx 1.4.2, and I can't
view the Latex logfile. It says "No LaTeX log file found." Is there a
way to circunvent the problem?
Thanks of any information,
The same thing happens to me (in both 1.4.2 and 1.4.1, although I don't
know if the latter is the result of 1.4.2 munging a preference setting
or if it was broken in 1.4.1 as well).
Please start LyX with the "-dbg files" switch from a command window. You
will see something like
Log name calculated as: xxx.log
in the command window, where xxx.log is the name of the logfile that LyX
tries to read. Does that file exist?
Yes, and it contains the correct content. Picking up from after where I
load the document but just before where I execute View->DraftDVI:
Temporary file `C:/Documents and Settings/me/Local Settings/Temp/lyx
_tmpdir2000a03080/2000b03080' created.
Converting from latex to dvi2

[this last line is repeated quite a few times]
[here is where I try to read the log file:]
Log name calculated as: C:/Documents and Settings/me/Local Settings/
Temp/lyx_tmpdir2000a03080/lyx_tmpbuf1/mgt805syllabus.log
Log name calculated as: C:/Documents and Settings/me/Local Settings/
Temp/lyx_tmpdir2000a03080/lyx_tmpbuf1/mgt805syllabus.log
Log name calculated as: C:/Documents and Settings/me/Local Settings/
Temp/lyx_tmpdir2000a03080/lyx_tmpbuf1/mgt805syllabus.log
I'm not sure why the "log name calculated" message occurs three times,
but the name/path are correct and log file is as expected. It just does
not display. Clicking the update button in the log viewer window has no
effect (and does not generate any new messages).
