That did the trick!

No clue though as to why I had to take the extra step of adding
something to a config file. Never happened to me with a fresh texlive
install before. And obviously, it had nothing to do with LyX.

Thanks bunches!

Yes, you need to run (as root presumably)

fmtutil --all

or

fmtutil --byengine pdftex
fmtutil --byengine luatex

to regenerate the formats.

The file was there; however, it was empty.

I added the line as per your suggestion. Unfortunately, pdflatex still
produces a dvi file.

Anything I need to do additionally, i.e. to activate the new config file?

... and if no such file is there, you need to create it, as indeed (and

Try the following:

Find the configuration file pdftexconfig.tex in the terminal via

kpsewhich pdftexconfig.tex

In this file, check if there is the line

\pdfoutput   = 1

If it's not there, or if the value differs (specifically: 0), then
add/change it.

[ANNOUNCE] LyX 2.3.4.2 'Emergency' Release

2020-02-11 Thread Richard Kimberly Heck

This is an emergency release that fixes four bugs in 2.3.4. Only the
first two really warrant an emergency release, but while we're at it...

The first, bug #11728, caused a five-second delay when attempting
to save files on Windows. This was a side effect of the fix for #10091
and reminds us why it would be good to have more testing on Windows.

The second bug is discussed in this thread
    https://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg210294.html
and concerns a crash related to the math toolbar. This was due to an
uninitialize buffer_ member revealed by the fix for #11586.

The third, bug #11724, affects Beamer presentations and causes bad output
when page geometry is set in certain ways. LyX should and how does ignore
such settings.

The last, bug #11579, is an old one, but a serious one, that prevents
the use of CJKUtf8 in ERT. It's a straightforward fix for a bug that is
pretty serious for people who encounter it.

All LyX users are encouraged to upgrade to 2.3.4.2.

No, that is not at all what it should do. If that's happening from the
command line, then there is some problem with your LaTeX installation.

This might help:

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/53600/pdflatex-producing-dvi-output-instead-of-pdf

You might also try posting about the issue there, as that is kind of old.

In the sort term, you can add the argument "--output-format=pdf" to the
converter for "LaTeX (pdflatex) to PDF (pdflatex)" under Tools>
Preferences> Converters. I.e., make the converter:

    pdflatex --output-format=pdf $$i

Hopefully, that will work.

Ok, here's something I (just) noticed: pdflatex, when run without
arguments, produces a .dvi file from HelloWorld.tex. It is only if I
specify "-output-format=pdf" that it creates a .pdf file.

 From what I understand, this is not what pdflatex should normally do.

I'm losing track of what all we've looked at. If you have not already 
done so, can you post the .tex file here? There is a way to put a 
comment (I think) in a .tex file that will tell pdftex or pdflatex to 
generate a DVI rather than a PDF file.

Dear all,

I am using LyX 2.3.3 on Ubuntu 18.04 (and i have been doing so

On the new machine, LyX fails to export pdf files via pdflatex and
LuaTeX. There is no pdf file after running export. The only thing that
does work is using ps2pdf.

Here's the message output from Lyx:

Any idea what might be wrong?

Oh yeah... running pdflatex (manually) on LaTeX code produced by LyX
does work.


Does Document > View work (produce a viewable PDF document) with the
pdflatex or LuaTeX formats? If so, when export fails, does it leave a
PDF file in the LyX temp directory?

I'm wondering whether LyX successfully compiles the PDF file in the
temp directory but then fails to copy or move it to the target
directory.

Paul


No, Document -> View (pdflatex) produces nothing either. Nor does the
LuaTeX way. LyX leaves no pdf file in the temp dir. It just leaves .aux,
.dvi,. log, .tex and .dep-pdf files.

Martin


If you open a terminal in the temp directory and run pdflatex against
the .tex file, does it compile? If not, is there a meaningful error
message in the terminal?

Paul


Yes, it does. There is no error.

Martin

That's all there is. And even if I delete the aux file, LyX can't create
a pdf.

It seems to have grabbed an existing .aux file from your desktop (as

Kornel was correct about the .dvi file being a clue. When I compile your 
HelloWorld example here, the corresponding line shows a .pdf file being 
written, as one would expect.


The target (pdf2) is correct, so I'm at a loss as to why the output file

Neither could I. As the last try I recommend to use the debug feature.
$ lyx -dbg files,latex
to see, what and how lyx calls the latex commands.

The lock file is a bit odd. I would expect that to be deleted after
configuration completed.

It might help to see the contents of configure.log. Possibly something

Please find the configuration file attached.

Well, I cannot find anything suspicious in the log. In particular, the 
configuration script seems to have exited without problems. You have an 
older LaTeX version than I do (I'm also using TeXLive), but I don't 
think that should be a problem.

RE: LyX 2.3.4 is Released

2020-02-11 Thread Bernt Lie
I run LyX 2.2.3 (for compatibility with some package set-up) and 2.3.4 on 64 
bit Win10, latest update.



I tried to update MikTeX, and received the following error message:



[cid:image002.jpg@01D5E0E9.E87C7510]



What is this?? Anyone has an idea?

No, Document -> View (pdflatex) produces nothing either. Nor does
the
LuaTeX way. LyX leaves no pdf file in the temp dir. It just
leaves .aux,
.dvi,. log, .tex and .dep-pdf files.

Martin

That (.dvi) is the clue probably. Select different output in
Document->Settings...->Formats->Default output format: -> PDF
(pdflatex)

 Kornel


No, I'm afraid that's not it. pdflatex keeps throwing the assertion
error message, when run through LyX, regardless of what I choose as
the
default output format.

Still I think Kornel picked up on an important clue: we need to figure
out why there's a .dvi file in the temporary directory. If you exit LyX
and start LyX again (which should use a fresh temp dir), and compile a
simple .lyx file, can you confirm that there's a .dvi in the temporary
directory?

Scott


Positive. There's a .dvi file in the (new) temporary directory after I
choose File->Export->PDF (pdflatex).


Do you have an entry for "LaTeX (pdflatex) -> PDF (pdflatex)" in Tools

Preferences... > File Handling > Converters and, if so, what do the

"Converter:" and "Extra flag:" boxes say?

Paul


I do. The entries are as follows.

Converter: pdflatex $$i

Extra flag: latex=pdflatex

Martin

That looks okay to me. I have one other flag (hyperref-driver=pdftex), 
but I don't think it is required and I doubt it is related to your issues.

That's weird. I definitely did a full texlive install (apt-get install
texlive-full). I also purged that due to the problems with LyX, cleared
the apt-get cache and reinstalled it - but to no avail.

Missing files: bbxFiles.lst, cbxFiles.lst, lyxciteengines.lst, xtemplates.lst

clsFiles.lst looks too small compared to full installed texlive

Yes, it looks related. Apparently the 'pdflatex' called from lyx does not create
the required pdf file to be used to display the image.
Maybe the environment used by lyx is different from the one if you compile
manually.

1.) Could you start lyx from the terminal?
2.) does the '.lyx' directory contain *.lst files (11 files) and configure.log
3.) Are the dates of these files newer compared to the install date of lyx?
4.) Does removing .lyx dir and restarting lyx create this dir again?

 Still I think Kornel picked up on an important clue: we need to figure
 out why there's a .dvi file in the temporary directory. If you exit LyX
 and start LyX again (which should use a fresh temp dir), and compile a
 simple .lyx file, can you confirm that there's a .dvi in the temporary
 directory?

My lyx user dir is ".lyx". But there is no preferences file.

I just noticed another strange phenomenon. When I try to include an
image in my .lyx document, I just get a LaTeX error ("Cannot determine
size of graphic in..." when exporting to pdflatex.  This is new as well.
The issues might be related.

 No, I'm afraid that's not it. pdflatex keeps throwing the assertion
 error message, when run through LyX, regardless of what I choose as
 the
 default output format.

I do. The entries are as follows.

Converter: pdflatex $$i

Extra flag: latex=pdflatex
