Hi Wolfgang,

This is not responsive to your question, but in the past I tried Memoir once and
Koma once for books. My findings were that they conflicted with things and 
weren't
worth the hassle just for a snazzier look and feel you can probably make 
yourself
anyway.

Nowadays I use a layout file, based on the Book document class, for every book. 
I
can get pretty much any look I want.

Elisabeth,

I am copying the user list to keep the discussion there (since the list 
is archived, and in the hopes a Windows user will chime in -- like 
Scott, I use Linux).


Three possibilities come to mind. I suggest checking them in the order I 
list them. The first is that the MiKTeX bundle did not install for some 
reason. You can test that by checking that there are folders for it and 
that article.cls is in one of them. While you are at it, you should note 
down the location of latex.exe and pdflatex.exe. If the files are 
missing, I suggest downloading a MiKTeX installer from the MiKTeX web site.


The second is that MiKTeX is installed but did not make it onto your 
system command path (meaning the system cannot find it when the time 
comes to use it). Try running |echo %PATH%| from a command prompt and 
see if the path to the .exe files appears there. If not, you can edit 
your path to add the missing directories (see, for instance, 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23400030/windows-7-add-path), or you 
can just reinstall MiKTeX as in the previous paragraph.


The third (and in my mind least likely) possibility is that MiKTeX is 
installed, but with the wrong permissions, so that perhaps only a 
"superuser" can run it. This would require that you be logged in with a 
user account that does not have "superuser" privileges. That can happen 
in some cases where the computer belongs to your employer and the 
employer's IT group does not give the user full rights to the machine. 
I've been off Windows too long to remember how to fix that, but in all 
likelihood it would require the involvement of someone from IT who does 
have superuser rights.


I hope that helps.

Paul

Elisabeth,

As a first check, please open a command shell and run the command 
'kpsewhich article.cls' (without the quotes). It should respond with the 
path to the basic article class in your MiKTeX installation. If it just 
returns to the command prompt with no output, that will indicate a 
problem with MiKTeX.

OK please keep the discussion on the list then (because I do not know
how to debug for Windows). I would consider user an older version until
2.2.2 is released (in a few weeks) and then trying that version, which
contains many bug fixes.

I CC Uwe, our main developer on Windows. He is very busy but might have
some advice for how you should proceed.

Hi Elisabeth,

I'm sorry for the trouble. That sounds very frustrating! We will release
2.2.2 soon (a matter of weeks). You might want to try that, but I'm not
sure if it will help. Another thing you might consider is installing LyX
2.1.5, which might work better for you (just a guess, since 2.1.4 seems
to have worked well for you), and can open 2.2.x version files.

Sorry I'm not of much help. If you happen to have access to Ubuntu then
I would be more useful and could help you easily get LyX running well on
it. Other than that, we'll have to hope that a Windows user shows up and
has an idea of what's going on.

Best of luck,

You might report the bug to OpenSUSE. It is possible it's a packaging
issue, which of course we don't control. The fact that you could
manaually reconfigure means there was probably an earlier
reconfiguration that was done at the wrong time: possibly before LaTeX
had been installed.

No problem, Carsten. You can either email the list directly (to:) or
put it in CC. It is optional to CC the other persons in the
conversation. I usually do that when I suspect they're not on the
list.

OK try the uninstall/reinstall. That's usually the advice I see Uwe
give (the main developer of the LyX installer for Windows).

Hi Cee Van,

This is because LyX is not finding your LaTeX installation, which can

Did you first run LyX before you installed TeX? If so, you'll need to run
LyX > Reconfigure. Then it should locate your TeX installation and recognize
all your document classes.

If not, try running reconfigure anyway. If that doesn't work, what version
of TeX are you using?
