Thank you for reporting this problem. For reference this is another manifestation of https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/11736 In this bug we fixed the corresponding issue with layout files.

From experience this means that you have a old layout file or module that have an encoding that is not utf-8. In your case I assume that the culprit is either in latin1 or latin9 (the difference between those is the presence/absence of the euro sign). Also I thought that we had fixed all the remainder errors like this in 2.3.5.2 So my suggestion is to go to your personal lyx directory and check the encoding of file. By default in linux the location of the personal directory is ~/.lyx. You can see this in LyX using the menu: Help->About LyX->Version and see the User dir entry there. Using the shell in my case I have: $ cd ~/.lyx $ file bind/* bind/user.bind: ASCII text My suggestion is to check the layouts directory that could be the likely source of the problem: $ file layouts/* You got it right, as I had several old modules from Editorium <http://www.editorium.com/lyxconverter.htm> of type: Non-ISO extended-ASCII text, with CRLF line terminators I have converted them to UTF-8 Unicode text and now configure.py recognizes all the modules. On the other hand, executing *Reconfigure* inside LyX no longer gives an error message. However, it still does not recognize Inkscape, even though it is installed. So in the log file the following is listed: INFO: checking for a SVG -> PDFTeX converter...INFO: +checking for "inkscape"... no The problem with Inkscape was that I had installed it as a flatpak package. I've removed it and installed the deb package and now all seem OK. Cheers Ramom -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Cheers Ramom It would be nice to know if the alleged non-UTF8 character is in configure.py or in some file it is trying to read. I've attached configure.py from my system (Linux Mint 19.3). You might start by comparing it to the one on your system (in /usr/share/lyx) using diff, meld or whatever tool you prefer. If there is a discrepancy, try reconfiguring using my copy. The files are identical. If there's no difference in the script files, I would suggest trying to run the configuration script directly in a terminal (python -tt "/usr/share/lyx/configure.py" --binary-dir="/usr/bin/"). If you get the same error message, check ~/.lyx/configure.log to see if you can figure out where the error occurred, and maybe post the log here.

To reproduce what lyx is doing go instead to your user directory: $ cd ~/.lyx $ python /usr/share/lyx/configure.py That will reproduce the same call as lyx does. I am getting a long output with mostly yes, but also no-answers, e.g. checking for package garamondx [garamondx]... no +checking for font garamondx-fonts [zgmr8r]... no or +checking for document class aapaper [aa]... no +checking for document class foils [foils]... no or +checking for document class scrlettr [scrlettr]... no (not only those, just some examples) Should there be no 'no's' in the output of the command? If you try to run that command in any other directory lyx will create all the files and directories present in the user directory. :-) I am not sure what that means: Would it produce the no-outputs??

From experience this means that you have a old layout file or module that have an encoding that is not utf-8. In your case I assume that the culprit is either in latin1 or latin9 (the difference between those is the presence/ absence of the euro sign). Also I thought that we had fixed all the remainder errors like this in 2.3.5.2 So my suggestion is to go to your personal lyx directory and check the encoding of file. By default in linux the location of the personal directory is ~/.lyx. You can see this in LyX using the menu: Help->About LyX->Version and see the User dir entry there. Using the shell in my case I have: $ cd ~/.lyx $ file bind/* bind/user.bind: ASCII text My suggestion is to check the layouts directory that could be the likely source of the problem: $ file layouts/* What happens if from the command line you run directly: $ python /usr/share/lyx/configure.py That will tells where does the code fails and it will be easier to diagnose the issue. > Finally, when executing Reconfigure, an error dialog appears with the > following message: > > The system reconfiguration has failed. > > Default textclass is used but LyX may > > not be able to work properly. > > Please reconfigure again if needed. > > > > I've run Reconfigure several times, but the modules still don't appear.

It would be nice to know if the alleged non-UTF8 character is in

I've attached configure.py from my system (Linux Mint 19.3). You might
start by comparing it to the one on your system (in /usr/share/lyx)
using diff, meld or whatever tool you prefer. If there is a discrepancy,
try reconfiguring using my copy.
If there's no difference in the script files, I would suggest trying to
run the configuration script directly in a terminal (python -tt
"/usr/share/lyx/configure.py" --binary-dir="/usr/bin/"). If you get the
