Re: Installing biblatex on OSX

.layout/.module files are OS agnostic: there is no special Linux or
Mac or Windows version of them. So you can copy them from one  
computer
to another so long as you put them in the right place. But your  
texmf

folder is *not* the right place for .layout/.module files;


YES, that was it! I put it directly into the …/ly 1.6-folder! now  
it works!


On my other computer it really have this folder, which I do not  
have here.

Is this folder used for LaTex? That´s the way it looks like:


Yes -- everything under texmf is for TeX/BibTeX/LaTeX.

I suspect what confused you was the presence of the lyx folder in
~/Library/texmf/latex. That is not your lyx user's directory (which is
at ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.6) but is rather a directory
the LyX Installer creates for its own latex styles and classes. You
should not put anything in that directory, as it may get overwritten
by future versions of the installer.


Hmmm, thanks again. The confusing point for me is, that I did not have  
that texmf- folder (~/Library/texmf) on my computer, until I created  
it by myself. Is this the correct way? I just copied it from the other  
computer, and everything seems to work fine.

Re: Installing biblatex on OSX

[jezZiFeR]

Hello,

 I have a problem with installing bibtext on a second OSX-Computer. I put
 the
  biblatex.module-file directly into the …/library/Lyx-1.6-Folder. Maybe
 this
  is the problem, but I think this is what the wiki prompts me to do. I
  reconfigured Lyx various times without succes – it does not find the
 module.

 Did you put it in ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.6/layout folder?
 (That's where it belongs.)


Yes, that´s where I have put it…


  Running texhas I get error-messages for every file in the texmf-folder,
 for
  example:
 
  texhash: /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var: directory not writable.
  Skipping...

 This indicates you need to run texhash as root: sudo texhash.


I did that now, but Lyx still does not find the biblatex-module.


 On my other computer I have a texmf-folder
  directly in the library, where the biblatex.module is saved, and
 everything
  works fine. But on the other computer this folder does not exist…

 It won't exist unless you create it.


Do I need that folder or is it okay, that biblatex-module is in
…/library/applicationsupport/lyx 1.6 ? Where do all the other files lie on
my computer, on which I don´t have that texmf-folfer directly in the
library?

Could I just copy that folder from one computer to the other?

Thank you, best
Jess

I suspect what confused you was the presence of the "lyx" folder in

at ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.6) but is rather a directory
the LyX Installer creates for its own latex styles and classes. You

Installing biblatex on OSX

[jezZiFeR]

Hello,

I have a problem with installing bibtext on a second OSX-Computer. I  
put the biblatex.module-file directly into the …/library/Lyx-1.6- 
Folder. Maybe this is the problem, but I think this is what the wiki  
prompts me to do. I reconfigured Lyx various times without succes – it  
does not find the module. Running texhas I get error-messages for  
every file in the texmf-folder, for example:


texhash: /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var: directory not writable.  
Skipping...


This also seems strange to me. On my other computer I have a texmf- 
folder directly in the library, where the biblatex.module is saved,  
and everything works fine. But on the other computer this folder does  
not exist…


What did I do wrong?

 reconfigured Lyx various times without succes – it does not find the module.

Did you put it in ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.6/layout folder?
(That's where it belongs.)

 Running texhas I get error-messages for every file in the texmf-folder, for
 example:

 texhash: /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var: directory not writable.

This indicates you need to run texhash as root: sudo texhash.

It won't exist unless you create it.
