Latex compliation error 'pgflibrarytikzpositioning.code.tex'

Post by ajayram198 »

Hello,

I have a HP Pavillon Laptop with Fedora 14 installed and 2 GB RAM, and am trying to compile a latex file of my thesis report. which has a lot of packages. While compiling the Latex file it gives me an error

! I can't find file `pgflibrarytikzpositioning.code.tex'.

I tried another simple latex code, with just these lines

Code: Select all

\listfiles 
\documentclass[]{article} 
\usepackage{tikz} 
\usetikzlibrary{positioning} 
\begin{document} 
a 
\end{document}

If I comment out the line \usepackage{tikz} and \usetikzlibrary{positioing} it seems to work fine. But not able to compile when these lines are present in the file,

I am not able to do the same thing with the thesis report, since it contains a lot of packages.

Recommended reading 2024:

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

Perhaps you need to (re)install the pgf package which contains TikZ and its positioning library.
