Friends,

I am running lyx 1.3.7 on a Mac Powerbook. The problem is that LyX never runs bibtex. I have to go to Export, generate latex code, and then run bibtex from the command line. Only if I do that, the viewers that I trigger from inside LyX show me the correct references.

The locations for latex and bibtex are:
which latex
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/latex
which bibtex
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/bibtex

What can be the reason? and how can I fix this?

Best regards,

Gunes


P.S. Installing a new version didn't work

Are you sure you're entering the bibliography the LyX way -- using Insert > List/TOC > BibTeX Bibliography and LyX's Insert > Citation... dialogs? Aside from that, if BibTeX is working from the command line, I don't see what could be going wrong. Try also running LyX with debug information: from the Terminal, type:

/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS/lyx -dbg latex

(substituting the path to where your LyX.app is for the / Applications/...).

Copy the output from an attempt to typeset and send it to the list.
