Well, it works now, so never mind. Putting a message on the Wiki 
regarding this particular issue might be helpful though.


What I stil don't get is that several document classes that used to  
work in 1.3.4 are now gone, such as curriculum vitae and several  
article document klasses (Kluwer, Elsevier, Springer).



Support for these classes should be there. Look in LyX.app/Contents/ 
Resources/lyx/layouts for the .layout files LyX uses. You'll need to  
be sure your TeX installation includes the relevant .cls files, though.


The .layout files are there and I am using the TeX i-packages, how do I 
check whether those .cls files are included or not?

Walter

It didn't work

Texshop is working fine with the TeX installation using i-

generating the Lyx User's directory. It is really frustrating...


Any thoughts?

Any help will be much appreciated.



Double check your PATH settings in LyX > Preferences > Paths > PATH  
Prefix to make sure it's correct. It should include /usr/local/teTeX/ 
bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current given what you've got above. (It  
should also include paths to other standard locations for binaries,  
including /sw/bin for fink installations of teTeX and /opt/local/ 
teTeX/bin for darwinports installations.) The default PATH Prefix  
setting on Mac is:


/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin- 
current:/usr/X11R6/bin:/sw/bin:/opt/local/teTeX/bin


If your TeX installation is working fine, and your PATH prefix is  
properly set up, it should work. Otherwise, I'm at a loss.


Try running Edit > Reconfigure again (quitting LyX and  
relaunching) ... and try it twice to see if that makes a difference.  
If not, try running the configure command manually: from a Terminal  
session, cd into LyX.app/Contents/Resources/lyx. Once there, type "./ 
configure" (without quotes) to run it. What is the output?

Do you know if there is any file I should delete in order to  
reconfigure this properly?


Try the following:

1. Quit LyX if it's running.
2. Move  ~/Library/Application Support/LyX somewhere else (but keep  
it). (This is the LyX User's directory.)
3. Make sure you've got the latest version of LyX/Mac  
(LyX-1.3.6-2Mac.dmg), and install it -- dragging LyX.app to your hard  
drive, and running the installer script.

4. Run LyX.

Does that work? If so, I suspect your preferences file is corrupted  
somehow. Quit LyX and move any files from your saved LyX User's  
directory that you want to keep into the new LyX User's directory at  
~/Library/Application Support/LyX -- but don't move the preferences  
file there.


If it doesn't work, I'm not sure what to say. (Can you use LaTeX from  
TeXShop, say?)

lyx 1.3.6 on mac os tiger

Hi,

I'm running OSX Tiger and just upgraded Lyx to 1.3.6.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to view,print, or export anything as Lyx  
cannot find any class files.


Weird thing is that they are there, like:

/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.tetex/tex/latex/base/article.cls

Anyone know how to fix  this?

-Rob

ps. It used to work.  Older version that is.
