I am having some difficulties getting LyX 1.3.5 for Win32 to start. When I attempt to execute lyx.exe I get a dialog box with the following text:
LyX wasn't able to find any layout description!
Check the contents of the file "textclass.lst"
Seems that LyX can't find your MikTeX.
What do I need to check for to get this working?
First you should check if MikTeX is working:
- try to open the program "yap" - try to compile the attached file with pdflatex Open a console and type:
pdflatex test
- check if MikTeX is in the "path" which you'll find in the system variable settings
