Hi everyone! I've just installed ProTeXt 2.0, following the installation guide to the letter, with one exception: The TeXnicCenter wizard couldn't find its required binary files directly in C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.5 (or similar), I had to point it to C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.5\miktex\bin. Perhaps the guide ought to be updated to reflect this.
In any case, when attempting to launch an output profile in TeXnicCenter, I get the following error message from TeXnicCenter: Output Profile: LaTeX => DVI C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.5\miktex\bin\latex.exe Cannot execute the command. Error: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. There are also a couple of unprintable characters sprinkled through the error message. Other output profiles provide similar errors. I have attempted to launch latex.exe from a prompt, using the same path as TeXnicCenter is using, and the executable launches just fine so I think the exe is fine. However, since I installed ProText to reduce the pain of learning TeX and installing the required components, I can't really trouble-shoot further without assistance. A quick google revealed several posts describing exactly the same problem on various forms and web pages, but no solution in sight. Any advice or insight would be highly appreciated! Best Regards, Robert
