Lyx cannot find style files

Post by soteri0s »

Hi there,

My LyX installation cannot detect where the style files of TeX are installed in my computer. This holds for any style file I try to use.

Nevertheless, invoking compilation of the file into pdf from within the LyX menus (ps2pdf, etc.) works just fine.
I have tried running the "Reconfigure" script but to no avail.

Any ideas?

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

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Hi soteri0s,

welcome to the forum!

Which operating system and TeX distribution do you use? Mac, Windows, Linux, which one specifically? TeX Live original, TeX Live from Linux repositories / package manager, or MiKTeX, or MacTeX?

Seems like an installation issue for me, such as when having two TeX versions installed.
