Windows XP Users, The attached message string details my story. Basic Summary:
My OS is Windows XP, and I've been using LyX 1.6.7 without problems for about a year. Starting a couple of days ago I've been unable to update or view the DVI versions of my files. Clicking the dvi or PS icons brings an error message: "Cannot convert file An error occurred whilst running phython -tt". I downloaded LyX 2.0.0, and I can open my documents using it. But, when I do, I get a message saying that I need the document class "article", and I'm directed to 3.1.2.2 of the User Guide. Unfortunately I don't understand the information given there on how to install the appropriate package files. After I get into one of my documents (using 2.0.0) and I click View (which I assume is asking for the compiled version that the dvi button yielded in LyX 1.6.7), I get a file name error message: "The directory path to the document cannot contain spaces". The suggestions offered by Richard Heck and Julien Rioux, while much appreciated, have not helped. Bill Hanson
