Re: [Fwd: Re: I can't run Lyx.exe after install it! - help me!] - Paul
Hey Paul, how do you do? You can email me as often as you like, ok? Well, I was late because I was trying many ways to install Lyx as ever I am doing nowdays... :-) Thanks in advance, again, Paul! Well, I erased all things in the user directory that Lyx created, and then run the command line you gave me, and it outputs the following message on DOS prompt: C:\Python20python.exe c:\LyX14\Resources\configure.py Traceback (most recent call last): File c:\LyX14\Resources\configure.py, line 49, in ? def writeToFile(filename, lines, append = False): NameError: There is no variable named 'False' C:\Python20 And then, I checked back, if by this way, was created the Lyx user directory again, but it does not created it. What seems to be the matter within? Please, don't desist on help me! I need the '.lyx' project files! Thanks a lot again and again! Have a nice day! Douglas Paul A.
