How to install lyx offline? aspell problem

[Michael Trofimov (mt2)]

Hi,

I need to install lyx under Windows XP SP2 on PC which is not connected with 
internet. I installed MikTeX, aspell and lyx offline. It works, but I can not 
use spellchecker: The spellchecker could not be started. No word list can be 
found for the language en_US. Please, help me!

I give up now! Under Linux it works very fine without any problems. But 
Windows? It is a pity!


Then try this:

1. unistall your manually installed Aspell, all Aspell dictionaries
   (even if we know that some things will remain)
2. delete the remaining aspell folders manually
3. check that aspell is not listed in the PATH environment variable of Windows
4. check the registry if there are still some Aspell entries although you uninstalled it, if so, 
delete these entries but be careful not to delete anything else!

5. uninstall LyX completely and reinstall LyX using this installer:
   http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/LyXWinInstaller
   Open an internet connection before you start installing!

That's it. Now you should have a working Aspell installatuion with at least the dictionaries for 
English and the Windows system language (in your case Czech or German I think).

You probably have an Aspell installation for the current user. Remove it 
if you want to use the system-wide version instead.


If I do it for a single user in *this sequence* everything is fine. 
It am afraid that if you install the version for all users, the dictionaries 
go to the wrong place. 


They should go to the right place, but the version that's installed for 
the current user gets priority over the system-wide version.


Another point, that could be a question of Aspell is, that it is important to 
install the English dictionary at first, regardless which dict you really 
want to use. Otherwise other dicts like the German one demands *every* word. 
You have to delete the whole Aspell directory and repeat the installation. 
But that could be a special thing of Aspell, and has nothing to do with LyX. 


Maybe something else was wrong. All dictionaries just have their own 
files, you can install them in any order you like.

No, I do *not* have it. I made the different tests for the current user and 
all users seperately after uninstalling everything that has to do with 
Aspell. Then at first I made the correct installation of LyX for the correct 
amount of users. Then I installed the dictioaries. Result: current user OK,

I know, you wrote it several times. But the problem is: there is not any

Yes, but what is it? Under Windows there is *always* something else wrong. ;-)

Yes, that is what I assume. But in this version it seems as if it is not 
correct. At first, after deleting the dicts, I deinstalled *everything*, even 
MikTeX, and ImageMagick, etc., although this is perhaps not necessary. Than 
making the test for all users: flop. Deinstalling everything. Making the test 
for the current user: Hooray. Deinstalling everything. Installing for current 
user, but installing the German dict first: Flop. The dict was found, but it 
wants to improve every word. Installing the English dict afterwards: Flop. 
Nothing changes. Repeating again the other way round: Hooray. Deinstalling

On the Aspell site only a very old version of Aspell for Windows is

LyX uses a port of the latest Aspell and installs it automatically. You

Yes, but *where* exaclty? E.g. if I made an installation *only* for me, it is

Yes, I did it four times. You cannot uninstall Aspell totally by this way. 
Therefore I deleted some remainigs by hand. I uninstalled the *whole* 
components of the LyX bundle as well. And I tested, if the files have really 
vanished before I started  the next installation. 

 and then install LyX and the dictionaries again.
I installed first the bundle for only one user, without making a cross for the 
dictiionary, because I want to install it *afterwards*. I got from GNU the 
package From GNU I got the package Aspell-de-0.50-2-3, which contains the 
dictionaries, that arede.multi, de_DE-only.rws, deutsch.aias, de_DE.multi, 
german.alias and some Swiss Packages in directory dict and de and de_phonet 
in directory data. These directories are installed in a directory called 
TmpInstall, and sureley I have to copy it. But where is the *correct* place 
in *Document Settings*? 

Since I am preparing al LyX-CD for czech pupils, I do not want to urge them, 
downloading a file from the net without knowing anything about the origin (As 
I told you, yesterday I got a *suspicous* version of the dictionary by a 
German server in Berlin*. And if you want to install an additional dictionary 
for another language, you must know these steps in any case. So, please: 
Where do I have to put the dicts *exacly* and which files? I do not think 
that all of them are necessary. There is no help in the package to figure 
out. 

I did not install aspell itself. As you said, this is not necessary. 

 You  
 don't need to install anything else.
Hopefully not. But I do not htink so. The problem remains  the same. And still 
it is top secret what lyx really does while invoking aspell.

 Note that an installation of Aspell for your own user account gets
 priority over the system-wide version. 
Yes, I read your replies to the same problem several days ago. But I tried a 
lot of possibilities. With and without aspell. Nothing works. 

 So if you installed dictionaries 
 for all users but still have a private copy of Aspell with it's own
 dictionaries, the dictionaries of the system-wide version will not be used.
I installed it only for my own now. But the problem ist the same. Where does 
LyX search for the dicts?

Re: Great Aspell Problem Windows XP (some other points)

[Fernando Roig]

Heiko:

I experienced something similar with my installation of LyX+Aspell  
under Widnows. In my case the solution was the following:


1) Unistall the current Aspell

2) Get the dictionary files of Aspell6 from the LyX wiki page

http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Aspell6

Do not use the dictionaries from the GNU page.

3) Before installing any dictionary, you must install first the  
english dictionary. This will be automatically installed in:


Document and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Aspell\Dictionaries

4) After this you can install any other dictionary, the problem is  
that some of them may not install in the proper directory. If this  
happens, you must manually move the files to the same directory:


Document and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Aspell\Dictionaries

At least, this worked for me.

Yes, I did it four times. You cannot uninstall Aspell totally by this way. 
Therefore I deleted some remainigs by hand. I uninstalled the *whole* 
components of the LyX bundle as well. And I tested, if the files have really 
vanished before I started  the next installation. 

 and then install LyX and the dictionaries again.
I installed first the bundle for only one user, without making a cross for the 
dictiionary, because I want to install it *afterwards*. I got from GNU the 
package From GNU I got the package Aspell-de-0.50-2-3, which contains the 
dictionaries, that arede.multi, de_DE-only.rws, deutsch.aias, de_DE.multi, 
german.alias and some Swiss Packages in directory dict and de and de_phonet 
in directory data. These directories are installed in a directory called 
TmpInstall, and sureley I have to copy it. But where is the *correct* place 
in *Document Settings*? 

Since I am preparing al LyX-CD for czech pupils, I do not want to urge them, 
downloading a file from the net without knowing anything about the origin (As 
I told you, yesterday I got a *suspicous* version of the dictionary by a 
German server in Berlin*. And if you want to install an additional dictionary 
for another language, you must know these steps in any case. So, please: 
Where do I have to put the dicts *exacly* and which files? I do not think 
that all of them are necessary. There is no help in the package to figure 
out. 

I did not install aspell itself. As you said, this is not necessary. 

 You  
 don't need to install anything else.
Hopefully not. But I do not htink so. The problem remains  the same. And still 
it is top secret what lyx really does while invoking aspell.

 Note that an installation of Aspell for your own user account gets
 priority over the system-wide version. 
Yes, I read your replies to the same problem several days ago. But I tried a 
lot of possibilities. With and without aspell. Nothing works. 

 So if you installed dictionaries 
 for all users but still have a private copy of Aspell with it's own
 dictionaries, the dictionaries of the system-wide version will not be used.
I installed it only for my own now. But the problem ist the same. Where does 
LyX search for the dicts?

Re: Great Aspell Problem Windows XP (some other points)

[Fernando Roig]

Heiko:

I experienced something similar with my installation of LyX+Aspell  
under Widnows. In my case the solution was the following:


1) Unistall the current Aspell

2) Get the dictionary files of Aspell6 from the LyX wiki page

http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Aspell6

Do not use the dictionaries from the GNU page.

3) Before installing any dictionary, you must install first the  
english dictionary. This will be automatically installed in:


Document and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Aspell\Dictionaries

4) After this you can install any other dictionary, the problem is  
that some of them may not install in the proper directory. If this  
happens, you must manually move the files to the same directory:


Document and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Aspell\Dictionaries

At least, this worked for me.

It looks like you have quite some old Aspell files on your computer. LyX 
does not install command line Aspell binaries but installs Aspell data 
files and dictionaries in "Documents and Settings".


Please go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and uninstall anything 
related to Aspell and then install LyX and the dictionaries again. You

Yes, but *where* exaclty? E.g. if I made an installation *only* for me, it is 
my own Directory in *Directory Settings*, right? Or is it the *root*

Again the great old aspell problem

[Heiko Schroeder]

Dear list, 

I am sorry, but I read every topic in the mailinglist about the well known 
aspell problem (still with LyX 1.5.1) under windows. I do not get the reason 
why this problem exists:

Simply aspell does never find a dictionary although it is installed correctly. 
And correctly means: for every user of the computer, since I chose the same 
kind of installation with LyX. Therefore the suggested solution in the 
mailinglists do not succeed, I must admit.  Under Linux there is not even a 
shadow of this problem. Under Windows -- of course -- it kills you half a 
day. 

Where does LyX *search* for the dicts? It is not said anywhere in the 
documentation, as far as I found out. 
It seems to search for files with the extension *.pws, but the dicts under 
Windows have the extension *.rws. 

To help newbies to install LyX under Windows there should be a hint in the 
installer that you have to download the dictionary from the web. When it is 
called LyX bundle, you do not expect that it is *not* the whole thing. Since 
there is no hint from which address the download will be taken, ther the 
danger of virusses occur (I made the bad experience with a server in Germany 
where I fetched one dict). Therefore there should be a possibility to 
installe aspell and the dicts manually -- and it is very easy to get a 
success. But LyX does not find anything. 

The problem is familiar since a long time, I am afraid. More clear information 
about the paths which are searched by LyX would be a good idea. Or am I 
wrong? 

If you have time to give me any hint for the solution, although it is well 
known, would be a great thing. 

Thanks a lot

Great Aspell Problem Windows XP (some other points)

[Heiko Schroeder]

Hi list,

as a supplement of the first mail (Installing Aspell and german dictionary 
separately after installing the bundle of LyX 1.5.1. for Windows XP):

It *must* be a problem with LyXs call of aspell. I tried everything, I can 
think of.  Applying the correct path prefix, copying into th bin-directory of 
lyx (aspell is located in C:\Programs\Aspell), loading the pws-Dictionary 
(which is *not* in the dict-subdirectory of aspell; hmmm). Aspell works 
perfect under on the DOS-Console (if the file is in the Aspell-Directory), 
but with LyX there is only a great nothing: cannot find directory. Bang.

I cannot find the slightest hint of the external call of aspell in any of the 
great manuals. Every external command of a converter can be checked. But with 
aspell? Nothing! 

I give up now! Under Linux it works very fine without any problems. But 
Windows? It is a pity!

I don't know if this will help, but I have LyX set up with English as

fine, but i cant get to use the spanish spellcheck. I have the aspell.es
0.60 installed in the c:/Aspell directory, but I cant get to setup this
dictionary as the default one for spanish text.
Thanks!

LyX 1.4.3/Aspell problem (WinXP)

[Paul A. Rubin]

Hi,

I just installed 1.4.3 in parallel with 1.4.2 and 1.4.1.  (As usual, 
thanks to the developers for cranking out another new and improved 
version, and to all involved with the Windows port.)  During the 
installation process, I think the installer parked some Aspell-related 
files under C:\Documents and Settings\what_a_handsome_guy\Application 
Data\Aspell.  That is to say, the files are there now, I don't remember 
if they were there before, and during the installation progress report I 
think I saw something on the what I'm up to line about something going 
in up there.


I already had Aspell 0.50, the necessary bits of 0.60, and assorted 
dictionaries installed under C:\Aspell.  The problem is, when I try to 
check spelling in 1.4.3, I'm informed that 'No word lists can be found 
for the language en_US'.  On the other hand, 1.4.2 (which is using the 
same preferences file etc.) seems to have no trouble finding them.  I'm 
hoping I don't have to reinstall Aspell each time there's an upgrade to 
LyX.  Any ideas what I can do to cure this?


Thanks,
Paul (whose spelling, while good, is not entirely perfect)

aspell problem

[Harold Mouras]

Hello all,

I am using Lyx 1.3.7 for windows but don’t have any access to aspell for the
spellchecking of my documents.

Should I put something specific in the preferences of lyx ?

I tried to reinstall aspell with the windows installer independently but it
didn”t work, even in c:\aspell 

Could you help me to fix that ?

Thank you very much in advance,

Sincerely,

Harold

Lyx + pdf + aspell problem on windows

[Primrose.Mbanefo]

Hi,

I just installed the 1.3.7 on two windows machines (XP and 2000) which
had aspell preinstalled in c:/aspell.
I cannot get lyx to use aspell. What should I do.

I changed the preview to call : acrord32.exe because there was nothing
there.

Now it calls acrobat reader but the reader always says file not found

Any ideas? (sorry if these questions have already been asked. I couldn't
find out how to search the mailing lists...)

When you say this what do you mean? If you produce a test doc with clearly 
misspelled words and put the cursor at the start of the doc and select 
spell check from teh menu what happens?


Do you hjave a dictrionary installed?

ON the other hand if you are trying to change ispell to aspell in the 
preferences then this wont work. It always says I spell.

Is the reader open before the call to view pdf? Try closing acrobat andf 
then selecting preview in lyx.

Absolutely nothing... No feedback whatsoever...

Yes I have the dictionaries I need installed (3 of them)

Ok but that was not really my main goal.

No the reader was not started. I have tried this but to no avail,


Thank you!

RE: Lyx + pdf + aspell problem on windows

[Primrose.Mbanefo]

My error! I found out I had arcobat running in the background. The error
is gone now that I have killed the process.

Aspell now does something after the nth reconfigure (on the win2000 box
I mean. I still have to try reconfiguring the one on win XP). 


Thanks for the help!

The file should be under /usr/lib/aspell.  Your listing didn't show

Did you install the dictonaries? Depending  on you distribution you 
might have to do that seperatly.

Hello,

I have checked two different versions of aspell, but there is no such
file called american.
 

The file should be under /usr/lib/aspell.  Your listing didn't show 
anything in that directory.

Did you install the dictonaries? Depending  on you distribution you 
might have to do that seperatly.
