I don't want to use Latex and its editors to use this document class

Hi,

welcome to the board!

Do you expect the same writing style in answers, with dozens exclamation marks? Do you use it in your documents, or just when talking to us here? If not, then please also use a normal style here. The post above is kind of deterrent in its language and I guess that few readers would actually consider writing an answer. Just an advice. You still could edit your question.

Stefan

Ok, Thx for the advice.
I've written like that because I haven't really found a solution after long hours of searchs.
I'm pressed with time and still have no solution.

I'd be so grateful to whom helps me.

Perhaps add further information, such as error messages and the .log file, and your used template perhaps together with your test .lyx file as attachment to a post. Especially when there's time pressure, it's good to post as many information as possible. Otherwise you loose time, as people have to ask for details.

Btw. here is a very good place for getting LaTeX help. Regarding LyX, we try to help here as well, but for specific topics it could be good to ask in the LyX users mailing list.

Hi,

I've the same problem. I use Ubuntu Natty and this package that contains bst and cls files : http://dn.revuesonline.com/revues/HermesLatex.zip

I copied cls file in those folders :
/usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/hermes/
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/hermes
~/texmf/

Then I rebuilt the base with texhash :

Code: Select all

sudo texhash 
texhash: Updating /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R... 
texhash: Updating /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXMFMAIN... 
texhash: Updating /var/lib/texmf/ls-R-TEXLIVE... 
texhash: Updating /var/lib/texmf/ls-R... 
texhash: Done.

How can I verify that this class is understood by texlive ? With Lyx, I do Tools/Reconfigure and restart it, but when I see the list of class (Tools/Information tex) I don't find my hermes-journal class.

Is it a problem resolved with texhash, are paths good ?

Thanks a lot,
Thibaud.

Hi Thibaud,

thibaud74 wrote:How can I verify that this class is understood by texlive?

you can check it by

Code: Select all

kpsewhich hermes-journal.sty

at the command prompt. It should return the full path and file name of the class if the TeX installation knows about it.

Thanks Stephan. The command give nothing. In fact, I have no sty files with hermes-journal, only cls. Do you think I copied the class in the bad folder ? I looked /etc/texmf/texmf.cnf to find paths, they seem be good.
When I launch texhash it indicates ls-R files. So when I look /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R , hermes-journal.cls seems have been found :

Code: Select all

$ cat /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R

% ls-R -- filename database for kpathsea; do not change this line.
./:
.:
ls-R
tex


./tex:
latex

./tex/latex:
hermes
hermes-journal.cls

./tex/latex/hermes:
hermes-journal.cls

Perhaps post the .log file of a compiler run as an attachment to a post, this information could help.

I tried with a local class, but it seems to have a confusion between two classes :

Download the file as given.
http://dn.revuesonline.com/revues/HermesLatex.zip

Go to C:\texlive\2011\texmf-dist\tex\latex\
and put the directory from the archive there.
Rename it to hermes, so the complete path is:
C:\texlive\2011\texmf-dist\tex\latex\hermes

And inside you have the hermes-journal.cls

For MiKTeX: C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\tex\latex\hermes
For Linux: /usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist/tex/latex/hermes

Open command prompt, run texhash.

Create an empty text file, put the following code inside:

Code: Select all

#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[hermes-journal]{article (hermes-journal)}
# Input general definitions
Input stdclass.inc

Save it as hermes-journal.layout
Copy the file to C:\Program Files\LyX20\Resources\layouts
On Linux: ~/.lyx/layouts, or similar directory, check yourself.

Run Lyx, then Tools -> Reconfigure. Restart Lyx.

Run Lyx again, open the desired document, select Document -> Settings,
go to Document Class and select the layout called article (hermes-journal),
also go to Language and select Encoding -> Other -> ASCII from the drop down menu.

Save and close the windows. Compile your document. Voila!
