LYX crash - SIGFPE signal caught

amirmit · Post by **amirmit** » Sat Jan 19, 2019 10:27 am

HI

I'm using LYX 2.3 version on Win.
When I try to save my document, I get an error popup: "LYX crashed! SIGSPF signal caught! Bye".

What can I do to fix this?

Thanks

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Sorry - the message is "LYX crashed! SIGFPE signal caught! Bye".

Welcome to the forum!

SIGFPE refers to a floating-point exception, so an arithmetic error. No clue yet why it happens in the moment of saving though.

Do you use the latest version 2.3.2, or still 2.3.0 or 2.3.1? You could upgrade. Some bugs related to crashes have been fixed in 2.3.2.
