I am not a LyX developer, but my first guess is that you have an  
incompatible (very old) version of boost.  What version of boost do  
you have installed?

The error message suggests that you have a Euro sign somewhere in your text 
and that LaTeX does not know how to deal with it. However,

Error Message From Lyx I Don't Understand

2009-09-30 Thread Thomas La Bone
I am using Lyx 1.6.4 on Windows XP to write my master's thesis. I have 
been progressing nicely but today I went to generate a pdf of the 
document and I got the following error and description:


Errors:

LaTeX Error: Command \texteuro unavailable in encoding T1.


Description

\newblock Birkhä
  user, 2002.
Your command was ignored.
Type  Ito replace it with another command,
orto continue without it.

I really have no idea what this is trying to tell me. A seemingly random 
block of text is highlighted when the error occurs. If I delete 
offending block of text a new block is highlighted with the same error. 
Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Looks like your source file uses the unicode char 0x0384 (GREEK TONOS)
as single quote or accent. LyX translates this according to

0x0384 "\\textgreek{'}""textgreek" "force" # GREEK TONOS

and if your LaTeX system does not support Greek, you get this error.

Either install the Greek fonts and packages (e.g. texlive-language-greek in
Debian or Ubuntu) or replace all uses of the GREEK TONOS with a supported
character.

This is just a wild guess on my part: did you insert the \textgreek{'} command 
yourself, or (as I am guessing) is that a side-effect of the conversion from 
OOffice to LyX? If I remember my Latex correctly, that greek accent is what's 
tripping TeX up---it looks for that character and cannot find it.

Try opening up the source window in LyX (View>>View source)---that will show 
you the Latex code that LyX generates. Then, delete before and afer the 
incriminated accent until the \textgreek command disappears and see if that 
solves the problem.

(Alternatively, export to Latex, open the file in an editor,  delete the 
\textgreek command manually, and reimport into LyX.).

Font error

After importing an OpenOffice document into LyX, I am now formatting into book 
form but encountered an error in part of the text when converting to PDF

I wasn't able to read the size data for this font,
so I will ignore the font specification.
[Wizards can fix TFM files using TFtoPL/PLtoTF.]
You might try inserting a different font spec;
e.g., type `l\font='.

.

The text in question is formatted the same as all the rest of the text, which I 
am copy-pasting one chapter at a time. Chapters 1-3 worked fine to convert to 
PDF, but this text in Chapter 4 returns the above error. At the end of "But for 
the time bein" is an apostrophe, to indicate dialect (bein' = being minus the 
g). The font is the same as the text immediately before/same as the entire 
chapter, as well as the three preceding chapters.

The original document was done in OpenOffice 2.0 in Windows, then imported into 
LyX 1.6.2 running on Linux Mint 7 Gloria.

How do I remedy this? I tried deleting the text in question, starting a little 
ways before it and retyping it, but with the same result. I also tried 
selecting a chunk of text and changing it to various other formats, like Sans 
Serif and Huger, then back again, but this tactic was also unsuccessful.

No PDF preview in LyX: "Error converting to loadable format"

2009-09-23 Thread Bjørn Liene Gundersen
Hi,

I allow myself to ask the lyx user list one more question before I
become an expert :-) I am using LyX 1.6.4, the Complete Alternative
Windows installation. When I insert PDF document in a figure float,
LyX gives me the message "Error converting to loadable format". I have
entered the Tools->Preferences
dialog and the Converters pane, but no luck here. Is there a way to
get around this problem or is it simply a bug?

Best regards Bjørn Liene Gundersen

The files that are named *_moc.cpp are deprecated. They are now called

Qt4.2.3.

I think that if you remove the *_moc.cpp files, it will compile.

Can you tell us how you configured LyX to recognize eLyXer? Depending

Also, it would be helpful if you could go to Preferences > Converters,
look for LyX -> HTML in the list, and send us the Converter line; it

[SOLVED] Conversion error message -- no PDF output

2009-09-21 Thread Christian Liesen
Hi,
following Richard's hint -- LaTeX export and then manually running latex --
I was able to see that all links to embedded objects were incomplete. No
idea what caused this, though ...

After a bit of experimenting, I moved my LyX file to the LyX working
directory, along with all source files for embedded objects (PDF, PNG and so
on), double checked they were properly linked and voila, the PDF output was
produced.

I'm still puzzled as to why a working LyX document would all of a sudden
refuse to compile. It was compiling alright three days ago, I only corrected
some typos, and now all the object links were broken. Weird.

Thanks, rh,

version?)

Anyhow, I have problems viewing my Lyx document with pdflatex because
of the graphics. Here are the errors I get:

It seems the problem is related to the presence of the list of the algorithms.
The error now is (I don't know why but the error has changed from the time I
wrote the first message):

 \listof{algorithm}{List of Algorithms}

The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

and the paragraph is:

% Preview source code for paragraph 5

\listof{algorithm}{List of Algorithms}

If I remove the list of algorithms the document is compiled without problems.
Any idea why?
Thanks!

This is a LaTeX bug (with Turkish and some other languages and the graphics 
package), see
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/2005

RE: Latex error

2009-07-02 Thread Ingar Pareliussen

Hi Sølvi,

Sadly these things happen and they are also sadly difficult to
find where it goes wrong, when you have complex documents these
things are more likely to happen. Even if I do not know what have
gone wrong it is likely that an environment is not properly ended.
As an example you might have included one of your child-documents
as a title-environment instead of standard-environment. But there are
many possibilities.

You know your child documents work. Start a new Master-document and
add small pieces from your old master-document to you get the error.
I hope it then will be obvious whats wrong. If not try to make
a minimal sample (with the error) and post it to the list.

I'm going on a holiday now, (to Stavanger by coincidence ;)) but
there are many people that can help you on the list.

Hi

I'm using the 1.6.2 version of LyX for Windows.

I'm working on a large document, so I have made this masterdocument with a 
lot of child documents included.

I have no problems with runnig the child documents and get pdf's and it 
hasn't been a problem with the masterdocument until today. I keep getting 
the following errors in a pop-up window:

Error:  Missing $ inserted.

you left one out. Proceed, with fingers crossed.

Error:  Missing } inserted.
Description:I've inserted something that you may have forgotten.
(See the  above.)
With luck, this will get me unwedged. But if you
really didn't forget anything, try typing `2' now; then
my insertion and my current dilemma will both disappear.

Error:  Extra }, or forgotten \endgroup.
Description:I've deleted a group-closing symbol because it seems to be
spurious, as in `$x}$'. But perhaps the } is legitimate and
you forgot something else, as in `\hbox{$x}'. In such cases
the way to recover is to insert both the forgotten and the
deleted material, e.g., by typing `I$}'.

I cannot for the best of me figure out where the error is in the document. 
Can someone please help me??

localization of LyX error message

2009-06-20 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann
Could somebody explain the following error message:

l.1349 ...cite {OCP95}{{305}{13.4.2}{figure.13.58}}

1349 is probably the line in the tex-file
OCP95 is the bib-key of my cited reference
I do not know what {305} indicates.
{13.4.2} is the subsection
and {figure.13.58}, well, one of my figures.

Does this mean, the error (citation OCP95) is between the subsection 13.4.2 
header and figure 13.58? And 305? Number of lines after the header?

Ahh, big discovery for me - you can indeed browse through the errors. My
apologies, I just did not recognize it, because the offending code was in the
BibTex part: I copied the BibTex entry from a website and there was a
(nonprintable?) character that caused the trouble.

But, I concur, an option to jump to the error in the Log file would be swell!

Please provide examples for the float thing and other instances where the 
place in the document is not found (otherwise we cannot fix it).
Preamble is more difficult to solve I guess.

In many cases LyX is not able to find the true location of the
offending code (e.g. if inside a float or a macro definition in the
preamble).

How about a button that takes you to the Error message in the LaTeX log?

About Lyx Error Messages

Dear Gurus,

sometimes even in Lyx you do something wrong and you get an error message. Most
of the time they are not very usefull - they simply indicate that something went
wrong with a short excerpt of what caused the trouble - the excerpt however is
not enough (for me at least) to find out what exactly went wrong and how to fix
it. You always have to go bug-hunting...

Maybe that is by choice of design to let the user chase it, but if TeXnicCenter
can do it, I dare to say, Lyx can (should?) do it.

TeXnicCenter let's you browse through the errors and puts you to the right
place, which is very very helpfull.

Is something like this planned in a future release or maybe it is already there
and I just missed it?

How do you people solve things like this?

Cheers

Look the Latex log. It will I guess tell you which entry in your bib file is 
problematic. I had problems with quote character when you cut&paste between

biblatex, inputenc error

2009-05-19 Thread Mario Paul
Hi,

on an Ubuntu Linux 9.04 with Lyx 1.62 using document class "koma-script 
article" and biblatex I have the following problem:

- everything works fine as long as I _dont_ insert the "\printbibliography" 
command. 

- when I insert "\printbibliography" in lyx via ERT I get an (well known) 
inputenc error: Keyboard character used is undefined

- I checked my .bib-file (that is generated with "synapsen") for any unusual 
characters, like a long "-". I cant find any and I dont have any clue why that 
problem occurs.

I would be very glad, if someone helps me.

Thanks in advance

Error Explanation Help Needed

2009-05-17 Thread Rich Shepard

  I wanted to make some corrections and changes to my beamer presentation
while I was away from the office. However, I get an error regarding the logo
graphic which is different from what came up before, and I am having a lot
of difficulty identifying the source.

  The file is exported from lyx-1.6.2 using the LaTeX (pdflatex) option.
When I run pdflatex on the .tex file the error occurs. The error is on line
869 of the attached log file. It's interesting that I'm running the same
versions of Slackware, LyX, and pgf on both machines, yet cannot
successfullly view or compile the presentation on the portable.

  It tells me that there is an undefined control sequence, .75pgfex,
associated with the \includegraphics command for aesi-logo.pdf. However, the
command does not have any such string in it.

  Where do I look for the source of this error?

TIA,

Rich

Hi Kosta,

Could you post the source of a lyx document that contains the error to
a service like pastebin.com? That way, someone can reproduce it and
tell you what's going wrong.

Unfortunately, the Latex-Beamer stuff simply throws completely
incomprehensible error messages for the average user :(

Could it be that you define a section inside a "frame"? If so, try
defining it before that frame.

- a section

What is missing?

Thanks, Uwe.

I am attaching the offending reference, which I entered by using JabRef (that 
is bibtex).
What is the difference between a long "-" between page numbers vs "--"?

It would be helpful if somebody could also check whether this reference works 
in lyx by inserting it via JabRef. I noticed if I try to re-write it in 
JabRef, it is automatically completed (e.g. the name, the journal). It looks 
to me as JabRef has some internal way of remembering this reference. I got 
the reference from the medline internet databank.

Would it help to use biblatex in this kind of errors?

inputenc is part of every LateX system. The problem is that BibTeX cannot handle UTF characters. The

When you haven't used BibTeX, I need a _small_ LyX example file to check.

Re: Ghostscript 8.63: Unrecoverable error

2009-04-18 Thread Wolfgang Engelmann
I would like to ask you again for your help. Perhaps there is somebody out 
there who had a similar difficulty with Lyx. 

This happens:
I start lyx 1.6.2 (Debian sid) on a terminal and get on the terminal the 
following messages:
> wolfg...@wolfgang:~/Buecher-D+E$ GPL Ghostscript 8.64: Unrecoverable error,
> exit code 1
> dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw
> PostScript GPL Ghostscript 8.64: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
>
If I remove the first figure legend (or put it into a yellow note box) I do 
not get these messages. 
The difference of the first legend is, that the mu uses the mathematical 
greek, whereas the second one is produced with alt-gr-m

Uwe Stoehr was kind enough to check it with his setup and he does not get an 
error on the terminal with the first legend. Does anybody else get an error? 
And/or has an idea what is going wrong in my case? 

There is no problem with the pdf export, and I could live with it. However, 
with a long document I get these error messages constantly and after some 
time (lets say in30 minutes) Lyx hangs and I have to kill the process and 
start lyx anew. 

dvipng, 1.11-1 is installed and the newest version in Debian lenny

texlive in Debian squeeze is still 2007

Günter,

ich hoffe, Du hattest eine gute Osterzeit.

Ich bin gerade von einer Reise zurückgekommen und habe noch einmal das Problem 
zusammengestellt.
In dem Anhang sind die beiden Legenden, eine wie vorher gehabt mit diesem 
Fehler, wenn ich die Lyx-Datei lade:
wolfg...@wolfgang:~/Buecher-D+E$ GPL Ghostscript 8.64: Unrecoverable error, 
exit code 1
dvipng warning: No GhostScript pngalpha output, cannot render raw PostScript 
GPL Ghostscript 8.64: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

die zweite mit Deinem Vorschlag, bei dem es keine Fehlermeldung (auf dem 
Terminalfenster) gibt.

Ob Du mal nachsehen kannst, ob Du die gleiche Fehlermeldung beim Laden des 
Lyx-files bekommst? Wenn nicht, müßte es an irgendetwas anderem bei mir 
liegen.

Das dumme ist, daß sich bei meinem Buch (in dem wahrscheinlich noch weitere 
solche Stellen sind) diese Fehlermeldungen ständig addieren, und irgendwann 
hängt Lyx und ich muß es neu starten. Auch wird das Arbeiten mit Lyx kurz 
vorher langsam (wenn man dann neu startet, gehts wieder eine Weile).

Ich erhalte also auch mit der fehlerhaften Legende durchaus eine richtige 
pdf-Ausgabe (beide mu sehen genau gleich aus), nur das eben bei der ersten 
Legende die Fehlerausgabe kommt.

What you see is a problem that ImageMagick is either misconfigured or cannot find Ghostscript. 
ImageMagick 6.5.1-3 was released 5 days ago, so it seems that you have installed it manually. 
Perhaps while doing this something went wrong, perhaps the ImageMagick version that is installed 
with LyX still has some registry entries. But this is hard to say from here, so I propose to

- uninstall ImageMagick
- then uninstall Ghostscript
- then uninstall LyX _completely_ (leave Aspell as it is)
- finally reinstall LyX

It should then work.

Re: pdflatex impossible, no error message

No pdflatex,  no error message. I also meet the issue. Two possible reasons:
1. UTF8, some words like  ff, fl
2. Directory of the lyx file. My OS is windows. If I put the lyx file on 
the desktop, I am sure to receive no result and no response. I guess 
that the pathon cannot recognize the directories such as /my document

LyX does not show error output of helper apps (except in the cosole) nor
does it check the return value. 

IMO, this is not only strange but a bug.

If you open lyx from a console/DOS-prompt/xterm window and have a look at
the output there, you might find a reason.

Export to LaTeX and try compiling manually. Then you should get useful 
error messages.

By this do you mean that the LaTeX log file (Document -> LaTeX Log)

This command is added by LyX for a LyX-specific list environment. But a
list within a footnote is 
quite unusual and might be the problem. So I would check that the
footnote and its content are in 
the Standard environment and not set to be a list, section or whatever.

Btw.:

You don't need these commands, LyX takes care of them automatically. (As
you can see in your posted 
code, LyX added these packages already.)

This is also not needed, you can select the AE fonts via the LyX
document settings.

Hello,

Surprisingly pdflatex stopped to create any output, in fact no export
command (dvi, ps, tex) produces any result. I don't get any file and no
error message either. 

Export always used to work and still works fine with earlier versions of
the same document. Between these versions I did not add anything new I
hadn't added before, except for one footnote.
The preamble of the not-working version contains one paragraph of
"textclass specific commands" that the older version does not have.
Could this relate to the problem?

Thanks again,

 however, upgrading ImageMagick from 7:6.3.7.9dfsg1 to dfsg2-1
did not help. 
Do you happen to have an address of the Ghostscript developers?

I noticed texlive in Debian squeeze is still 2007
How could I update to 2008? I have a DANTE TeX collection containing TeXLive 
2008, it has an installer, but I don't know how well it goes along with the 
Debian way of installing
My hope is, that something in TeXLive 2008 might cure the Unrecoverable error
