I am trying to get Sweave to work with lyx 2.0 on Snow leopard with Mactex

I had Lyx 1.6 working fine, but uninstalled before installing lyx 2.0

Opening a file in Lyx 2.0 (originally from Ubuntu 11.04 and lyx 2.0) gives
me an error that I am missing

literate-latex
noweb.sty

I know lyx 2.0 uses modules now, but all the instructions I can find still
seem to refer to the old installation, and I am not at all sure what I
should be doing here. The Mac is a little bit of a mystery to me, so I would
be very grateful for a bit of hand holding.

I'm a bit surprised that googling hasn't found anything, so I assume its
just me.

many thanks,

Graham


The error message that you get should have pointed you to Section 3.1.2.3 of the User's Guide. The message says that a literate->latex converter is missing (although not stated, usually this would be noweave), it also says that the LaTeX package noweb.sty is missing.

Is the error message not correct? i.e., do you have "noweave" and "noweb.sty" installed in a useful place in your computer? It might be that LyX is wrong here.

When LyX is right, you should follow the instructions in the User's Guide to correct the problem. If you can, please provide feedback on the text in Section 3.1.2.3 (and maybe some suggested replacement text) so that we can change it and make it more understandable.
