2014-12-03 Thread Arantza Ugidos 
Good morning, I want to install lyx in my computer but I keep getting the
following message:  Error opening the \bin\lyx.exe file.

 

Does somebody know which may be the cause of this error message?

 

Thank you very much,

When did you get such error message?  During install or after install?

 Hi Stephan
 I was doing this

 I did what you told me and read the Install macOSX, I run CPPFLAGS and

Hi Pedro,

why do you want to compile LyX yourself in /Applications/lyx-2.0.4?

1. You should consider to use the ready to run package from www.lyx.org

2. If you want LyX compile yourself you should work in your home dir

3. This is working for me (with Mac OS X 10.6):
- Download Qt4 (I did it with 4.7.4 when this was current)
  I'm using the 32bit developer version for Leopard (10.5).
  The tools are installed here: /Developer/Tools/Qt
  The Headers are here: /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/Library/Frameworks
  If you've grabbed another version you have to look for the correct values.
- Checkout the LyX sources (the source tree is in my home dir)
  Run autogen.sh there.
- Create a build directory to separate source and build results.
- Prepare the environment
 export QT4_CORE_CFLAGS=-FQtCore
 export QT4_CORE_LIBS=-framework QtCore
 export QT4_FRONTEND_CFLAGS=-FQtGui
 export QT4_FRONTEND_LIBS=-framework QtGui
 export PKG_CONFIG=
 export LDFLAGS=-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk -arch i386

-I/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Headers
 export PATH=/Developer/Tools/Qt:$PATH
- Run configure and make
 cd build-dir  ../lyx-dir/configure --with-included-gettext  make

Hi Pedro,

LyX has been much harder to compile ever since they switched from
xforms to qt4. 

Stephan Witt had a good idea -- if you can install LyX from a package,
and if it works, and if it's the right version for you, install from a
package. If not, here are some suggestions for taming the LyX vs qt4
beast:

* A lot of times you need to install a whole bunch of non-obvious
  components of qt4. Use your package manager to install anything
  remotely connected to qt4. Remember what you installed, so you can
  remove the unnecessary ones once you get LyX working.

* Be aware of some unexpected behavior: When you blow a compile, you
  need to delete your whole compile tree and restore it from the
  original tarball. Otherwise, sometimes, ghosts of failures past can
  sabotage what otherwise would be a successful compile.

Hi Pedro,

how do you call configure? Did you read INSTALL.MacOSX?

Please try the following:

CPPFLAGS="-I/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Headers 
-I/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Headers" configure

Just in case the Qt headers are there... or change it accordingly.

Juha,

as you have LyX 1.6svn installed. You could easily test if it works when 
simply copying the attached file msvcp80.dll to the folder of LyX 
1.6svn's lyx.exe.

This way, you can keep LyX 1.5 untouched and help me finding the problem.

If this doesn't help, als copy the file I attached to my previous mail

1.6svn does not seem to be able to read 1.5.x documents, says that they

Dear Juha and Tuomo,

I tested the installer again on 3 different machines. One is a very old Win2000 machine and it works 
even there fine.
I have only one idea what goes wrong. To be sure that I'm right, could you do me a favor and test if 
it works when you install LyX using this installer:


http://prdownload.berlios.de/lyxwininstall/LyX-154-3-22-AltInstaller-Small-Test.exe

Please uninstall the existing LyX 1.5 before testing. (keep MiKTeX as it is)

If LyX then still doesn't start, copy the attached file to the same folder where the lyx.exe is. 
Then it should definitively work.


This would help me much.

thanks in advance and best regards
Uwe

Have you used the update installer variant to get LyX 1.5.4? Or does the problem also occur when you 
use the small or complete installer variant?


This has been reported also by other users, but I can't reproduce the problem. For the meantime, 
please use the standard LyX installer.

I'll do some more tests later today.

This problem has occurred both with the update and complete variants. 
As version 1.5.3 is working fine for me, I think I'll give version 
upgrading a rest for now.

Dear Juha and Tuomo,

I tested the installer again on 3 different machines. One is a very old Win2000 machine and it works 
even there fine.
I have only one idea what goes wrong. To be sure that I'm right, could you do me a favor and test if 
it works when you install LyX using this installer:


http://prdownload.berlios.de/lyxwininstall/LyX-154-3-22-AltInstaller-Small-Test.exe

Please uninstall the existing LyX 1.5 before testing. (keep MiKTeX as it is)

If LyX then still doesn't start, copy the attached file to the same folder where the lyx.exe is. 
Then it should definitively work.


This would help me much.

thanks in advance and best regards
Uwe

Are you still using the previous version of Visual C++? The current CRT 
version is 9.0.21022.8.

I know and I ship the latest MSVC manifest file. What I attached was just for testing as either a 
dll or this file must cause the problem.

problems installing lyx on windows vista

2007-02-07 Thread Tino Langer 

Hello,

I just tried to install lyx on my windows vista. The first problem was 
to install miketex out of the bundle-installer of lyx 1.4.3-5 
(lyx-143-5-bundle.exe ) - an Windows API error occurs. a workaround for 
this problem was to install miktex 2.5 stand alone and refer to the 
existing installation while installing lyx.


But the second problem ist, that I can not start lyx. It seems to be 
there is no python available. But I thought this application comes with lyx?


Are there any howtos out there how to install lyx on Windows Vista?

many thanks - Tino

Problems installing LyX-1.3.3 on Debian Woody

2003-10-15 Thread Thomas Schnhoff 
Hello,

I've compiled and packaged LyX-1.3.3 for Woody by using checkinstall.
Compilation (--with-qt3 option) went fine and building the deb was
carried out successfully, but I went into troubles installing the
resulting package with dpkg -i lyx_1.3.3-1_i386.deb.
Obiviousely dpkg refused to install LyX because it tried unsuccessfully
to override the file /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cm/cmex10.pfb
which is according to dpkg part of installed tetex-extra package. Here
are my installed TeX packages:
ii  tetex-base 1.0.2+20011202 basic teTeX library files

ii  tetex-eurosym  1.0-3  Euro symbol for LaTeX
ii  tetex-extra1.0.2+20011202 extra teTeX library files

It seems to work just perfetc! I updated from LyX 1.2.x and I must say (among 
other things) it is an improvement with the QT-integration. :-)

Now I just need to learn averything about the BibTex integration. I want to 
use LyX for my academic work - and I am working on a small book about 
Linux-tools for students and researcher at non-technical educations at Danish 
universities.

Yep, the 1.3.* series is sweet!  Qt eye-candy aside, you'll find a 
number of nice usability features.

Linux-tools for students and researcher at non-technical educations at Danish 
universities.
As I said in another post, I recommend Jurabib.  Feel free to mail me 
off-list if you have any BibTeX questions - I'm no expert, but I have a 
fair amount of trial-and-error experience.

Bad spec file?  Try it - you can always uninstall it if it doesn't work.

Hello Francisco,

could you tell us what version of Xforms are installed? Sounds like your 
version might be incorrect!
Are there any profound reasons for not using LyX-1.1.6fix4 instaead of 
fix3 ?
