paths on Mac for include

Post by Kickflip »

Hi,

I got some trouble with the paths while I am using TeXshop on my Mac.

Code: Select all

\include{header/deckblatt}
My main.tex is in the folder "manifolder" where a folder named "header" is stored. In the folder "header" is a deckblatt.tex and a deckblatt.aux etc.

It is like /mainfolder/header/deckblatt.tex

LaTex gives me an error:
I can't write on file 'header/deckblatt.aux'

Welcome to the forum!

It could be caused by folder or file wite permissions, or you compile actually from a different path, other than /mainfolder. Perhaps post your .log file here, as attachment. When you write a post, there is an "Attachments" link below the text edit field.
