General ⇒ moderncv error: Undefined control sequence \moderncvtheme

[elaich]

Hi everyone,

I was trying to make a CV using the "lovely" moderncv class, when i run:

Code: Select all

$ latex moncv.tex 

I have this first error.

Code: Select all

! Undefined control sequence.
l.3 \moderncvtheme
                  [blue]{casual}

I think i have the class moderncv since I saw this in the output too:

Code: Select all

Upgrade your LaTeX system. Your versions of LaTeX2e and moderncv are old. I'm using TeX Live 2011, which includes version 0.12 of the moderncv package, and your CV file compiled fine (using pdflatex, not latex).

Thank you, after the update everything goes well.
