LaTeX=>PDF does not work

Post by chrisbio »

Hi all out there:

I am using MikTeX 2.7 and TeXnicCenter 1.0. RC1

when compiling LaTeX => PDF (path: “C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.7\miktex\bin\pdflatex.exe”; arguments “-interaction=nonstopmode "%pm"") the run stops abruptly giving the following details:

! I can´t find file ‘grphyph4.tex’

1.10 \imput grphyph4.tex
Please, type another input file name: pdftex.EXE: bad file descriptor
Makefmt: pdftex failed on pdflatex.ini
Initexmf.EXE: The operation failed for some reason
I can’t find the default format file!

This is my .tex file:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt,DIV=10]{scrartcl}
\usepackage[brazil]{babel}
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
  Dicas para Iniciantes
\end{document}
What is going wrong? Where is my error? In this document, I'am not using any greek ...
Thanks for your help.
Best wishes from northeastern Brazil
Christian

The problem is not comprehensible for me. Insert the \listfiles command as very first line to the code sample. Search the log file for the section between *File List* and ***********, copy it and post it here (using the code environment).

The grphyph4.tex file once belonged to the elhyphen package. Currently this package contains the grphyph5.tex file. But from your code it is not clear why this file is demanded. Perhaps a matter of outdated packages. My file list looks as follows.

Code: Select all

 *File List*
scrartcl.cls    2009/01/01 v3.02 KOMA-Script document class (article)

Make sure that you post the right log file to the code.

Dear Thorsten:

beg your pardon for the delay – urgent field work …

As suggested, I inserted the \listfiles command – all other outputs produce it but the LaTeX => PDF does not. It not even produces a log-file, but is interrupted while loading the hyphenating files

Code: Select all

=========================================
Local configuration file hyphen.cfg used
=========================================
German traditional, New German, French, Greek …

here, the output is interrupted.

(installation from ProTeXt, profiles (LaTeX=> dvi, pdf, ps, ps=>pdf) kept from earlier version, some MikTeX files updated, later upgraded to TeXnicCenter 1.0 RC1)

Any new suggestion?

Thanks a lot for you help!

Perhaps some other topics will help to get closer to a solution [1,2]. Follow the advices and descriptions according to your language and start a new run with this profile.
