One thing that I find useful when having problems is exporting the R code (File > Export > R/S code). Then you can source it and do debugging in R. If there is no error when sourcing, then it's time to look at LyX/knitr module/Rscript issues/etc. Best, Scott
Re: Problems with custom modules after upgrade to 2.1.0
Update on my knitr problem which I just got around to looking at. It looks linked to my R installation. My knitr and tables packages just disappeared. Re-installation of the packages cured the problem. Weird, I don't remember doing anything that would have wiped out those packages and it looks like the rest of my installation is still okay.

Another way of getting the ShortInsetNames module to work with 2.1.0 is to change the format number from 35 to 48 (in a text editor); no double quotes needed. Andrew

I'm the writer of the ShortInsetNames module. I tried it with 2.1.0beta2 earlier today and it worked. I've now installed 2.1.0 and it doesn't, but it's easily fixed. Open the module in a text editor and insert double quotes so that the relevant two lines look like: InsetLayout "Flex:ShortLabel" and InsetLayout "Flex:ShortXRef" The module as you have it at present lacks the double quotes, which seem to have become necessary only in the last "birth throes" of 2.1.0.

Re: Problems with custom modules after upgrade to 2.1.0
Whenever you have got an error with the Rnw/knitr module, be sure to look at View->Messages. The error message in the dialog box does not tell you much about what was really going on, and the real error message is in the Messages pane. To LyX developers: I think it will be much more helpful if LyX can catch the stderr output when R fails and display the error message in the dialog. The default error message "An error occurred while running" is not informative.

Problems with custom modules after upgrade to 2.1.0
Currently I am running Ubuntu 13.10 with LyX 2.1.0. I seem to be having some problems with some of the custom modules I usually load. Actually I have two different problems The first problem is that I seem to have lost the ability to use a custom module (ShortInsertNames ). Typically, I will have Natbibapa, ShortInsetNames, Rnw(knitr) & ToDo loaded. Now when I compile and even when I do Document > I am getting an error, “Error reading ShortInsertNames when I try to load ShortInsetNames. Both the ToDo and ShortInsetNames are in /home/john/.lyx. Interestingly enough Short Label but not Short Ref appears in Custom Insets and will insert an Undefined field in the document and I can compile the document. The second problem is that whenever I try to compile a document with RnW(knitr) loaded I get an error message saying An error occurred while running: Rscript –verbose –no-save –no-restore "/usr/share/lyx/scripts/lyxknitr.R" "/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.qXaUOysc4933/lyx_tmpbuf4/""lists.footnotes.endnotes.Rnw" "/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.qXaUOysc4933/lyx_tmpbuf4/""lists.footnotes.endnotes.tex" ISO-8859-15 "/home/john/Lyx/" This was occuring before the upgrade to 2.1.0 but there was no problem with ShortInsertNames before the upgrade.
