I have tried to make a clean install of RC5: I have uninstalled RC5; I have
renamed my ApplicationData/Lyx16 folder to Lyx16old and erased the lyx keys
from the registry HKCU and HKLM. I have then reinstalled RC5 using Uwe's
installer. I cannot start Lyx anymore. I get the following error:
LyX : reconfigure le rÃ(c)pertoire utilisateur
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Program Files/LyX 1.6.0rc5/bin/../Resources/configure.py", line
11, i
n <module>
import sys, os, re, shutil, glob
File "C:\Program Files\LyX 1.6.0rc5\bin\lib\os.py", line 63, in <module>
import ntpath as path
File "C:\Program Files\LyX 1.6.0rc5\bin\lib\ntpath.py", line 11, in
<module>
import genericpath
ImportError: No module named genericpath
LyX: TerminÃ(c) !
LayoutFileList::Read: unable to find textclass file `'. Exiting.
I observe that the config folder Application Data/lyx16 is created but
remains empty after the installation and launch of RC5.
I will then restore RC3 using the saved config folder and registry keys.
If you have an idea about this problem, I would be happy to hear it.
Best regards,
Murat
PS. I use XP SP3 French
