Hope that someone has a clue about whats going wrong here!

Thanks
Wolfgang

Please try changing line 191 in texmanager.py from this:

command = 'cd %s; latex -interaction=nonstopmode "%s"'\

to this:

command = 'cd "%s"; latex -interaction=nonstopmode "%s"'\

Also, backens/backend_ps.py line 1274 needs to be changed:

command = 'cd "%s"; latex -interaction=nonstopmode "%s"'%(gettempdir(), 
latexfile)

as does line 1287:

command = 'cd "%s"; dvips -o "%s" "%s"' % (gettempdir(), psfile, dvifile)

These changes are in svn 2465. Sorry for the trouble.

Darren

Hi,

with some manual adjustments in texmanager.py I get the first tex file 
processed to an dvi and both files (tex + dvi) are copied into this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\s0167070\.matplotlib\tex.cache

but now dvipng refuses to do its job:

     if exit_status: raise RuntimeError('dvipng was not able to \
RuntimeError: dvipng was not able to process the flowing file:
C:\Documents and 
Settings\s0167070\.matplotlib\tex.cache\3bb1bc57100b0c65915bdda3a1f60dae.dvi
Here is the full report generated by dvipng:

Settings\s0167070\.matplotlib\tex.cache\3bb1bc57100b0c65915bdda3a1f60dae.dvi": 
No such file or directory

It seems that the spaces in the temp path produce the error. Is there a 
way to change the temp dir (beneath in system settings of XP)?

Thanks
Wolfgang

I'm sorry Wolfgang, but I don't have access to a windows computer at home, and 
my next two weeks at work are literally booked from dawn to dusk. I don't 
know when I'll get a chance to look into this again. Hopefully someone else 
on the list can offer some suggestions.

Darren

Hi Darren,

I will try to change my temp path later this day. But I also think, that 
  one problem comes from the fact that I have installed Python not on my 
C: drive.

Finally I changed in matplotlib/__init__.py the evaluation of $HOME to a 
path without spaces because all files are transfered to 
$HOME.matplotlib/tex.cache/ instead of $TEMP

I also had to change in texmanager.py some of the "%s" to %s

I think someone with more experience in programming should check the 
path handling on windows (regarding to spaces in the path)

I would also suggest that temporary files go into a path which is based 
on $TMP.

Wolfgang

Which LaTeX distribution are you using on windows?  TexLive handles
paths much more poorly than MikTeX.

I have Miktex running. But finally dvipng had problems with the path 
which included spaces.

Part of the problem is that DOS doesnt allow the semicolon to delimit multiple 
commands. I made a little bit of progress by changing every 'cd "%s"; ...' 
to 'cd "%s" & ...'. At that point, dvipng starts complaining about the 
dvifile not existing. The frustrating part is that I can copy that exact 
command into a dos prompt and dvipng processes the dvi file just fine. I'm 
about ready to plead insanity.

Hello Darren,

the & is also in my solution! and I always had to change "%s" to %s
and I also added a 'c:' before the cd because " cd c:\temp\ " is not 
working when the command is starten from d:

so finally I have:
  c: & cd %s & latex -interaction=nonstopmode %s ...

But I thinks this is not enough to get dvipng working, so I've changed 
the $HOME to a path without spaces.

Wolfgang

If you wan't I can mail you the files which I've changed.

I'm attaching two files. They should overwrite the existing texmanager file in 
site-packages/matplotlib and the backend_ps file in 
site-packages/matplotlib/backends. I would appreciate it if some windows 
users trying to get usetex working with mpl-0.87.3 would test these. I'm 
really surprised at all this trouble, I guess I've become very far removed 
from the windows experience. I dug a windows harddisk out of the back of my 
closet and was able to get usetex working with a standard windows XP setup, 
so there should be no need to change your $HOME or anything like that.


Thanks,
Darren

I have a little time and am trying to fix this bug.

Wolfgang, would you try running the following:

import os
from tempfile import gettempdir
os.system('cd %s & latex -help'% gettempdir())

If that doesnt work, than I need to pass an absolute path/eps_filename to=20
\includegraphics. The problem is that on windows, the TEMP environment=20
variable is something like 'C:\\Documents and Settings\\Darren\\Local=20
Settings\\Temp' or 'C:\\DOCUME~1\\Darren\\LOCALS~1\\TEMP', and=20
\includegraphics is not able to deal with filenames that have spaces or=20
tildes (this has been declared a feature, not a bug).=20

I need advice from some of the mpl gurus. If I can't do the os.system('cd .=
=2E.)=20
trick, should I request that windows users either change their temp=20
environment variable to something like c:\temp, should I request that they=
=20
make a new environment variable called mpltemp, or should I just process th=
e=20
file in the current directory?

Thanks,
Darren

I don't have a Windows system to test on, but on a Mac the following trick
seems to deal with the tildes:

    \documentclass{article}
    \usepackage{graphicx}
    \catcode`\~11
    \graphicspath{{/tmp/foo~bar/}}
    \catcode`\~13
    \begin{document}
    \includegraphics{stuff.pdf}
    \end{document}

If I put stuff.pdf in /tmp/foo~bar, pdflatex (from TeX Live) finds it
just fine. Handling spaces seem to be a more difficult problem...

Thanks Jouni, that was a creative suggestion. Unfortunately it doesn't work on 
my windows laptop because dvips doesnt find the embedded file unless I either 
run dvips in the directory containing the file to embed or I pass an absolute 
path to includegraphics. I tried wrapping the \includegraphics statement with 
the catcode shifts you suggested, but it didnt work.

Ok, usetex is going to do postscript processing in the user's current 
directory, but only on windows. On other platforms, the work is done in a 
temp directory. I've tested my changes on linux and windows, and committed 
them to svn as of 2528. Feedback appreciated.

Wolfgang,

Will you please try using these new files? I think they should solve the 
problems you were having. Please post some feedback as soon as possible. 
Thanks.

Darren
