lyx-1.1.3 view ps/dvi bug (?)

1999-12-02 Thread Jörg Ziefle

Hi there,

I just tried the new lyx-1.1.3 and encountered problems viewing my old lyx
files, especially the big ones, while the smaller ones do well (the files 
are all in the same directory, so there is no permission problem):

This error message is shown after the invocation of File->View dvi

file:praktikantenbericht.dvi: No such file or directory 

and this one after File->View PostScript

This is dvips(k) 5.86 Copyright 1999 Radical Eye Software
(www.radicaleye.com) dvips: ! DVI file can't be opened.

I also tried not using my own lyxrc.

Did I totally oversee something obvious or did I discover a bug?

Greetings,

Jörg

P.s.: Just tell me if you need any system facts.

Does the file name really contain a column (:)? Does removing it help?

Did you check the permission of the file itself?
ls -l filexxx

Yes, I own the files and the directories and have rw permissions.
In the meantime I downgraded to lyx 1.1.2 which works ok.

I want to emphasize that it doesn't work especially for the big files (>10
pages).

No, the filename doesn't contain a colon (:). I have no idea how this
comes :-(

Hello again,

What does happen if you do File->Update_DVI? Are there errors? What
does Edit->View LaTeX Log say?
