Error Inserting figures - convoluted paths

I am using a package called Sweave, in a program called R to run some statistical analysis and produce a tex file. Reproducible research and the like. Anyhow, this works great and I am having no problems until I try to include a figure.

The code I downloaded from a Professor in Germany, so it ...

Re: Beamer compile problem / package problem?

As much as I don't like the idea of putting all these packages that I will never use on my system, I think you're right. Especially considering it doesn't tell you what package is missing, and installing on the fly isn't working.

Should I uninstall the basic, and install the complete? Or use the ...

Re: Beamer compile problem / package problem?

As gmedina pointed out, it wasn't keyval.sty but what loaded after that. The pfg package. Installing that got me one step further, but still with a compilation error.

I did reinstall MixTex last night, before I posted. My last error log was after I reinstalled MixTex and installed the beamer & pgf ...

Beamer compile problem / package problem?

I'm sorry that I didn't re-read that and try that before I posted.
Unfortunately that didn't seem to help. I installed pgf via the package manager, made sure i had ownership of that folder and reran.

I have attached the log file, the compiler now won't proceed past pgfsysprotocol.code.tex ...

Re: Beamer compile problem / package problem?

But 'keyval.sty' isn't a downloadable package... and that's where the program is hanging.

I just checked, and keyval.sty is where it's supposed to be \tex\latex\graphics.
Is there a way to find out if this file is corrupted? I get the impression that it's part of the main MikTex distribution which ...

Re: Beamer compile problem / package problem?

Thanks for the additional info.
I did the refresh, but I'm still getting a compile error.

This time at least it went past the beamerbaseoptions.sty and stopped on keyval.sty.

I've attached the updated log file.

Re: Beamer compile problem / package problem?

I'm not quite clear on what you mean by the file name database.
I've used the package manager to install other packages without a problem..

Re: Beamer compile problem / package problem?

Thanks, but I had already looked there. That's actually were I got the 'test' example from. While adding in the modification

\documentclass[hyperref={pdfpagelabels=false}]{beamer}
\let\Tiny=\tiny

Does get rid of a warning, the compilation still halts at the same location.

Beamer compile problem / package problem?

OS: Windows 7
Editor: TeXnic Center 1.0
Compiler: MiKTeX 2.8

I used the package manager to install the Beamer, and xcolor packages.
I have 'Install packages on the fly' set to Yes (even though sometimes that doesn't help and I have to manually install them using the manager).

Running the ...
