Text Formatting ⇒ Can't compile any scripts

[sonek]

Hi
I'm new here on forum and I just install Texmaker today. It's my homework from school where i can compile my scripts but on my own laptop i see this error
"Error : could not start the command : pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode "test".tex"
I have no idea what's going on. It happend when i would like to compile script from school or easy standard script like this one:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
%praeambulum
\begin{document}
Hello world! 
\end{document

Could someone help me?

Welcome,

TeXmaker is not the only thing you need, you need to install a TeX distribution as well.

There are two distros available, MiKTeX and TeX Live.

I install MikTeX and this error dosen't exists any more but i have another problem. I can't install langangue pack. I change server but it dosen't help.

• ! ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!
  ! LaTeX Error: File `polski.sty' not found.Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed,or enter new name. (Default extension: sty)Enter file name:! Emergency stop.<read > \usepackage

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[MeX]{polski}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{enumerate}

I need another program to install packs or what? I have no idea how TeXmaker works.

You have installed a basic installation, meaning a few dozen packages out of a few thousand packages are installed.
You can mark in the MikTeX preferences, that all missing packages should be installed automatically, or do it by hand using the MiKTeX package manager.

Installing TeX Live would have been the wiser choice here, it installs a full set by default.

What when I get communicate to install package, I chose install from internet i chose server and i still have got this error?
