*Run python from the command line:*
Python 2.6.4 (r264:75706, Dec 7 2009, 18:43:55)
[GCC 4.4.1] on linux2
I tried running 2+2; and that worked.
*Run /usr/lib/python2.6$ python site.py from the command line:*
sys.path = [
'/usr/lib/python2.6',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-old',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/Numeric',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/PIL',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gst-0.10',
'/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gtk-2.0',
'/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/gtk-2.0',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.6-gtk2-unicode',
'/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages',
]
USER_BASE: '/home/bkay/.local' (exists)
USER_SITE: '/home/bkay/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages' (doesn't exist)
ENABLE_USER_SITE: True
*As far as I can tell I didn't have a PYTHONPATH. I added
PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.6 and export PYTHONPATH to my .bashrc and
got the same set of errors*
*I thought it may be a path or network drive problem in windows. When I run
tex2lyx on the command line on my windows box in the lyx bin directory I
get:*
C:\Program Files\LyX16\bin>tex2lyx latexexample.tex
Creating file C:/Program Files/LyX16/bin/latexexample.lyx
\end{document} does not match \begin{center}
\end{verbatim} does not match \begin{document}
\end{document} does not match \begin{verbatim}
Bug: Ignoring par-level extra stuff '\noindent
'
*Which generates a file I can open with lyx, which is good. I had been
running it from a network drive (using expandrive) and having trouble. I was
also able to confirm it worked from local "My Documents". It also worked in
lyx. I guess problem solved (or at least worked around) for windows.* *When
I run the command directly on the tex2lyx on the network drive file it also
works:*
C:\Program Files\LyX16\bin>tex2lyx -f "Z:\Documents\Macro\Predicting housing
prices with rates and risk\Latex_Output_for_Housing_Class_1.tex"
Creating file Z:/Documents/Macro/Predicting housing prices with rates and
risk/Latex_Output_for_Housing_Class_1.lyx
<then it returns to the command line and leaves the file>
*Then I thought it might be the spaces in the directory name in the path to
the latex source file. when I renamed the directory to
Predicting_housing_prices_with_rates_and_risk I got the same error, so I
think it is something else. *
*
So, to summarize. I can get tex2lyx to work and lyx to call it from windows
when working on a local drive but not a network drive. I cannot get tex2lyx
(or call it from lyx) from my linux machine (local only tried) . I have
verified that I have python installed, at leas superficially works, and also
added the PYTHONPATH shell parameter. *

This looks very much like a broken Python installation.
The module "site.py" is a very basic one
python2.6-minimal: /usr/lib/python2.6/site.py
and should be found. Do you have a local Python installation?
What is the Python version and what is the PYTHONPATH

Do you get the same error on the Windows machine?
