I had recently update to Kile Version 2.1.2 using KDE Development Platform 4.8.5 "release 2". And I have a problem every time I try to compile any document, for example:
This path looks wrong: /usr/share/texmf/texlatex/base/article.cls. It should be /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/article.cls, there's a slash missing. Is it a typo, or is there such a problem with the installation?
Is your file article.cls valid, i.e. the real class file? Perhaps post it here, as attachment, if in doubt.
It looks completely normal at first sight. We had to check, since sometimes orginal files are modified or overwritten, I noticed it several times with HTML formatted files instead of the TeX files.
Nothing to see yet, for me, please attach the .log file which belongs to the test file.
Right at the beginning of your file there are invalid characters, which you probably did not see in the editor. Try removing it with another editor or generate a new file.
but I can't see those characters with kile or kwrite. Also this is a new document, I didn't write the header, I have used the default header from kile. I believe this has to be a bug for this version, because if I compile any of this files in my old laptop, with an older version of kile, anything works properly
but thanks you, now I knew where is the problem, now I need to find why. You were very nice
