Hi All, We're using LyX 1.6.2.1 with Tex Live 2008 on the Windows platform.
We are attempting to setup our own texmf-local tree which will be shared by multiple users via NFS. To test the setup we've created some bib files in the shared NFS tree and referenced them from within LyX documents. We've hit on a few issues: - The bib files located in the NFS share are not appearing when we add a a new database within LyX however the documents do print correctly with the reference data - We cannot seem to prevent the creation of the "ls-R" file in the root of the NFS shared location (Tex Live issue) The NFS shares texmf-local tree is setup as: "texmf-local/bibtex/bib/local/<bib files>". The variables HOMETEXMF, TEXMFHOME, TEXMFLOCAL are all set to the UNC path of the NFS share. Running texhash does indicate the NFS share is being picked up and running kpsewhich <bib file> does show the correct NFS location. Given conversion to PDF and HTML both produce output which includes the data it appears Tex Live is working correctly. Anyone have any ideas why LyX is not picking up the new databases (even after a rescan or reconfigure)? Has anyone else tried a similar setup? Thanks in advance.
