Hello Kornel,

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

Hello Kornel,

Sorry, I think I did not formulate my problem precisely enough. I was trying to 
export documents (LyX > PDF) on the command line:

C:\>"c:\Program Files (x86)\LyX 2.3\bin\LyX.exe" input.lyx --export pdf

This did not work, LyX exits immediately producing a PDF or printing anything 
on the console. It also does not start the GUI. So I tried the help:

C:\>"c:\Program Files (x86)\LyX 2.3\bin\LyX.exe" -export pdf

This also printed nothing; this was the problem I reported because I thought it 
made sense to report the simplest possible problem. However, my end goal is to 
export LyX documents to PDF and TeX from the command line. Sorry about the 
confusion.

Regards, Pierre.

Hello Kornel,

Sorry, I misunderstood. After starting the GUI from the start menu, the debug

Hello Kornel,

When I run the command 

"c:\Program Files (x86)\LyX 2.3\bin\LyX.exe" -help

from the Windows command prompt (cmd.exe), I see no effect: no GUI, no console 
output. For other commands (--export and so on), I see nothing either.

Regards, Pierre.

Hello Daniel,

Thanks for the hint. Unfortunately, besides the lack of output in the console 
window, the LyX GUI does not start either.

No console output on Windows 7

2019-03-13 Thread Pierre Woestyn
Hello,

I do not see any LyX console output on Windows 7. I have the latest version. 
Adding the installation folder or its bin folder to the PATH does not make a 
difference. I found the same problem on another Windows 7 desktop.

For reference, I am using the command:
"c:\Program Files (x86)\LyX 2.3\bin\LyX.exe" -help

Thanks in advance for any information...

Regards, Pierre.
