Hi,
When trying to view a document in pdf I get:
...
Error: Cannot view file
----------------------------------------
File does not exist: /var/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.J57590/lyx_tmpbuf2/xxxxxxx.pdf
...
A process called pdfetex is started but just hits 100% cpu usage and
nothing happens. I tried changing the tmp directory, reinstalled lyx,
reinstalled tetex, deleted the .lyx directory in /home, but nothing
works. The same thing happens when exporting to pdf or dvi.
I discovered that it has something to do with the Table Of Contents. When
removed it works again, inserting it and it doesn't.
