Well,
MyDissertation.tex.latexmain is in the folder. No problem.

:!which latex returns /usr/bin/latex indicating it works well. I tested a

\include is used in the main tex file (MyDissertation.tex).

Could you please try out the package and figure out the reason? Here is the

This is very confusing problem. Thank you all.
