Windows 10 -- path issue?

Open kbrzezinski opened this issue 9 years ago • 8 comments

I went through the Troubleshooting and everything works fine there. However, after running LatexIt in my test email message I got the following report:

LatexIt! run report...

Severe error. Missing package? We left the .tex file there: C:\Users\KRZYSZ~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tblatex-1.tex, try to run latex on it by yourself... Failed, not inserting

The path to my latex executable is: C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\latex.exe. I am clueless as to why LatexIt seems to be using some random concatenation of different paths... I tried adding quotation marks to the paths to my executable latex, dvips and convert, but it also gives errors:

This path is malformed: "C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\latex.exe". Possible reasons include: you didn't setup the paths properly in the addon's options. Wrong path for latex bin. Please set the right path in the options dialog first. Failed, not inserting

Any hints?

Hmm I think there's been issues with TexLive 2014. If that's what you're using, use TexLive 2015.

I'm using MikTeX (my package manager says 2.9.5700).

Have you tried following the instructions in troubleshooting? That is, running exactly the same command as LatexIt...

Also, two things:

  • you don't need quotation marks
  • I see latexexe instead of latex.exe; is that normal?

Yes, I followed the troubleshooting instructions and all worked fine for me.

Not sure what you mean here. My paths to the .exe files are the following: C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\latex.exe C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\dvips.exe C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.9.3-Q16\convert.exe

Also, I use the default LaTeX template.

kbrzezinski avatar Jan 15 '16 03:01 kbrzezinski

So if you run C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\latex.exe -output-directory=C:\Users\KRZYSZ~1\AppData\Local\Temp -interaction=batchmode C:\Users\KRZYSZ~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tblatex-1.tex in a cmd prompt, it works?

No. Here's the log:

C:\Users\Krzysztof\Desktop>C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\latex.exe -output-directory=C:\Users\KRZYSZ~1\AppData\Local\Temp -interaction=batchmode C:\Users\KRZYSZ~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tblatex-1.tex 'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I added quotation marks to the initial path and I got:

C:\Users\Krzysztof\Desktop>"C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\latex.exe" -output-directory=C:\Users\KRZYSZ~1\AppData\Local\Temp -interaction=batchmode C:\Users\KRZYSZ~1\AppData\Local\Temp\tblatex-1.tex This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.16 (MiKTeX 2.9) entering extended mode

C:\Users\Krzysztof\Desktop>

(that's it)
