Math & Science ⇒ Correct Equation Numbering

[B_line]

Dear all,

I have written my doctoral thesis with LaTeX using the scrreprt class from KOMA-Script. To handle math I have used the packages amsmath, amssymb (amsfonts), amsthm and mathrsfs.

Everything compiled well using the MacTeX 2012 distribution, and equations were numbered according to their section/subsection and chapter, e.g. (1.2.3) stands for equation 3 in chapter one, section 2. Since I moved to MacTeX 2013 on a different computer (still a Mac), instead of the over mentioned numbering style, I obtain a global sequential numbering. That means, I end up with very large numbering for equations, e.g. (530). I am very confused about this issue since the code has been left untouched!

I have tried to use \numberwithin{equation}{section}, but this make things even worst, since now numbering starts over in every subsection in a local sequential way: (1), (2) etc.

As a general information, I am also using the following packages:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{arsclassica}           
\usepackage[
  eulerchapternumbers,%   % chapter numbers in Euler
  subfig,%                % address compatibility with subfig
  beramono,%              % Bera Mono
  eulermath,%             % math font set to AMS Euler 
  pdfspacing%             % enhance line fitting
]{classicthesis}

Do you guys know how to get back the correct numbering?

Thanks!

Do you guys know how to get back the correct numbering?

Unfortunately no, we don't have enough information and just guessing isn't really scientific. For example, we don't know the other system? Is it up to date? Are there any warnings/errors while compiling?

The best way to find out, what changes the equation numbering would be to strip down to a minimal working example. This is a common task to isolate the cause of problems.

Best regards
Johannes

Thanks Johannes,

you are right I did not provide enough details, I have just hoped some of you was aware of this issue... it is certainly a compiler issue. As I have explained in my original post, the original computer I have used to compile the thesis had a TexLive 2012 distribution, running on an iMac with OSX snow leopard. My new system is a MacBook Air running OSX 10.8.5 and TexLive 2013.

Since none of the original script has been changed, it is reasonable to assume that the problem resides in some changes made in TexLive 2013. I was hoping that some of you guys was aware of these changes, that's why adding more details to my post I suppose will not help much... it is a global and not a local problem.

Anyway, I will try to workout a minimal example as you suggested and post additional details.

Thanks again!
