thesis won't compile anymore!

Post by dschneiderch »

I opened up my thesis this morning to compile and nothing happens! LyX hangs and when I exported to .tex and tried to compile with TeX Shop it also hangs.
here is the console output from the texshop attempt:

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

thesis won't compile anymore!

Post by Stefan Kottwitz »

Hi,

A note for our fellow users, this question has also been posted on tex.stackexchange.com.

Dominik, if you create cross-posts, please provide a link to the other place(s) where the question has been posted. One reason is to prevent double efforts and waste of time. Kindly have a look at the Board rules for this and further information.

Regarding your problem, I cannot see the source in the log file. I would test a minimal working example if you would create one.

My apologies. I had inserted a bit a code that it must have been hanging on because when I tested an older MWE before updating the preamble it worked. All is well now. Thanks for looking
