Hi list,

I had LyX 1.5.6 installed along with MikTex 2.7 on Windows XP. Today I
decided to upgrade to LyX 1.6.1 and downloaded the installer:
LyX-1.6.1-1-Installer.exe

I uninstalled LyX 1.5 and then ran the installer. It detected my MikTex
installation and completed successfully... however as soon as I tried to
compile the initial welcome screen to DVI or PDF I got the following errors:

Undefined control sequence.
LaTex Error: Missing \begin{document}
Undefined control sequence.
LaTex Error: Missing \begin{document} 

I tried reconfiguring but that did not help.

Since then I've uninstalled LyX and MikTex and reinstalled both of them
numerous times, with no success. I have tried to use the "Download MikTex"
option in the LyX installer (in case this fixes things) but it fails with
the error: "Downloading MiKTeX failed. Would you like to try again?
(Redirection (302))"

Can anyone help? It would be good not to have to go back to 1.5.7!

Thanks,
Peter
