When I'd like to test my installation, I'm writting a very simple
TeX file :
No. That is not a TeX file. It is a LaTeX file, and old LaTeX, to boot.
\documentstyle{article}
\begin{document}
Voici mon premier document avec \LaTeX{}.
\end{document}
(if I use \documentclass, it's exactly the same problem)
Please use \documentclass for new documents. You lose a lot of memory,
speed, quality and functionality in LaTeX2.09 compatibility mode.
and then my log file looks like this :
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1) (format=tex 2000.10.3) 16 MAY

**debile
(debile.tex
! Undefined control sequence.
l.1 \documentclass
{article}
Obviously, you called
tex
instead of
latex
