Dear LyX Users
I have a document written in Mathcad. From Mathcad there is a facility to
save as *.html file.
When I import  this *.html using LyX , an message appears

"An error occurred whilst running java -jar htmltolatex.jar -input
'try.html' -output"

( note: try.html is the name of the file)

How can I import codes written in Mathcad to LyX.
(PS. I never use import in LyX, this is first time for me to try Import
html. I tried in two different OS: Ubuntu and WindowsXP, I got the same
error message)

The way to debug these things is always the same: Do it from outside LyX, meaning from the command line. LyX is just calling an external program, in this case htmltolatex, and that's what's failing. LyX has nothing to do with it.

I guess the first question is whether you have htmltolatex correctly installed and whether it will translate simpler HTML files.
