Dear all I've just used ProTexT to install the Tex distribution it brings with the pdf installation pack (MikTeX 2.8 + ...). However I've a few FUNDAMENTAL QUESTIONS related to the installationf a xxx.cls (class) package.: QUESTION 1- As I've seen in the Archives, the so-called C:\texmf-local file is longer supported by Miktex 2.8 version installed through Protext. >From what I've read, this is where UPDATES or NEW/ADDITIONAL packages should be saved. In one of the email in the protext Archive (copied below), it's suggested to save those ADDITIONAL packages in the folder C:\Documents and Settings/ Administrator\ Local Settings\Application Data\ MiKteX\2.8\miktex\base (as this is the folder that appears with the description 'USER DATA' in the MiKteX-Options-Roots window on the one hand and, as I want to add a 'class' file I think it should be in the 'base' subdirectory). So my first question is, should I save any UPDATE and/or NEW PACKAGE in this folder 'C:\Documents and Settings/ Administrator\ Local Settings\Application Data\ MiKteX\2.8\miktex'. If so, what are the other two folders in C:\Documents and Settings\....' that I can see in MiKteX-Options-Roots window, designed for? QUESTION 2- After having been reading abt different LaTeX-related issues during the last few days, I've seen in numerous occasions the importance of having a 'ROOT' directory (as in C:\texmf) and a 'LOCAL' one (as in C:\texmf-local) with the same structure (TDS) as the former one. What are the equivalents of these two directories, 'C:\Program Files\MikTeX 2.8' and the file I mentioned above in C:\Documents and Setting (User Data) ? QUESTION 3- When I use MikTex Update Wizard, what are the 'local repository files'? and where are they? QUESTION 4- As u can read here, http://www.unt.edu/rss/class/Jon/L2H_SC/install_l2h_web_many/node3.html it's suggested to change the default locations from the ProText installation to the typical ones. Would you recommend to do so? Needless to say, thanks vm, and apologies for any inconveniences. But I'm completely stuck.

No. If you want to use one of the roots created by miktex use the USER CONFIG root. USER DATA contains files which can be easily recreated (and are often updated by the miktex tools). There is no need to backup them. Local configuration files are in USER CONFIG and this root should be backup and so is also the better place for your local files. But the best it to create your own local root. Create somewhere (outside the miktex roots) a folder "myspeciallocaltexmf", fill it with your package (copy the folder structure of the other roots. A sty eg. should be somewhere in myspeciallocaltexmf/tex/latex/.... Then add myspeciallocaltexmf as a new root in miktex settings. > QUESTION 3- When I use MikTex Update Wizard, what are the 'local repository > files'? and where are they? You could download the content CTAN:tex-archive/systems/win32/miktex/tm/packages/ in a folder. This would then be a local repository. (Or a subset, the only files required are the two miktex-zz...-files.) -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Ulrike Fischer |

Dear all Thxs vm for your comments, but some doubts still remain. As you've suggested, I've created a new 'local' directory: C:\texmf-local which has the main following subdirectories C:\texmf-local\tex\latex C:\texmf-local\tex\latex\base C:\texmf-local\tex\latex\<packagename> C:\texmf-local\bibtex C:\texmf-local\dvi C:\texmf-local\fonts I've done this bcse in Table 5.1 from Peter Flynn's manual, it seems that the different types of files (i.e., .tex, .sty, .cla, etc.) should be saved in the appropriate folder. You can see his Table here: http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/info/beginlatex/html/chapter5.html#ctan Now I describe a typical example: I try to download a package that contains all the pieces necessary to construct a Thesis. Normally the files are of the following type: Thesis.tex (the main one), .sty, .cls, .bib, .bst). - QUESTION 1 **************************************************** Should I put the different type of files in the right 'local' folder as suggested by Peter Flynn' s table. In other words should I save the different files as: - .cls in C:\texmf-local\tex\base - .sty in C:\texmf-local\tex\xxx - Thesis.tex in C:\texmf-local\tex\xxx or in a 'personal folder' ???? - .bib >>> in a 'personal folder' - .bst in C:\texmf-local\bibtex\bst by 'personal folder' I mean a folder where I download all the components. by 'xxx' I denote the <packagename> notation used by Peter Flynn. So my doubt is, should I follow all these steps, or could I just all the files in 'personal folder' ? (My feeling is that I should follow all these steps, right ?) - QUESTION 2 ***************************************** In case I follow the above steps, I understand that I need to add the C:\texmf-local directory using the 'Root' under MikTeX> Settings; but .... - Which Miktex Settings: 'Administrator' or the one without anything? I've my own laptop. - I've noticed that if I choose the 'Admin' Option, in the Roots label, the root directories maintained by MikTex are C:\Program Files\ Miktex 2.8 and C:\Admin and Setting\ All Users\ Application Data\Miktex\2.8 while if I choose the non-Admin option, I find the two additional directories C:\Admin and Setting\ Administrator\ Application Data\Miktex\2.8 C:\Admin and Setting\ Administrator\ Local Settings\ Application Data\Miktex\2.8 is this the way it should be? which option should I choose to add my local 'C:\texmf-local' directory. in fact, I've added it using both options (Miktex Settings and Miktex Settings (Admin), and I've realized the following: a) using the Admin option I see a small window where different directories are read; using the other option (non-Admin) this does not happen, b) after adding the C:\local-texmf directory, I can see that if I launch again MikTex Settings (Admin), I can see it in the Roots window, whereas when I launch MikTex Settings, it only appears if I click the 'Show Miktex-maintained root directories. Is this right? - QUESTION 3 ************************************************* Following the brute-force approach of downloading all the files in some ad-hoc personal folder, I've opened the main Thesis.tex , .sty and .cls files with TexNicCenter. I've built and run the main Thesis.tex files, obtaining some output. Is there any distinct error message that would indicate me some problems with the .sty, .cls,. .bib, .bst or other files that may be needed. In other words, as I'm not sure if I need to ave all these files in the right subdirectories in the C:\texmf-local directory, or just in one personal folder where I save all the pieces together, if the later option is wrong, then I'd like to know this is te problem: i.e., it is not acceptable to save all the 'pieces' (Thesis.tex, .sty, .cls, .bib, .bst , ...)in one ad-hoc folder and that's it (having to save 'each piece' in the right subfolder in the directory C:\texmf-local that I've created for this purpose) Needless to say, many ths for your help.

Put them in your normal document folder and compile from there. Compilation creates files (log, toc, aux etc). You wouldn't want to fill up the tree with them, and it is even unclear if you have the rights to write there and if pdflatex will find the files in the next run. > > - .bib >>> in a 'personal folder' Either in the document folder or C:\texmf-local\bibtex\bib\<whatever> > - .bst in C:\texmf-local\bibtex\bst Yes. > - QUESTION 2 ***************************************** > In case I follow the above steps, I understand that I need to add the > C:\texmf-local directory using the 'Root' under MikTeX> Settings; but .... > > - Which Miktex Settings: 'Administrator' or the one without anything?

Yes. In a multiuser setup, user have their own set of roots which are not seen from other users. In the non-admin setting you are seing the personal roots of the user "Administrator". Btw: I advice you strongly to use a non-Administrator for your daily work. > Following the brute-force approach of downloading all the files in some > ad-hoc personal folder, I've opened the main Thesis.tex , .sty and .cls > files with TexNicCenter. > I've built and run the main Thesis.tex files, obtaining some output. > Is there any distinct error message that would indicate me some problems > with the .sty, .cls,. .bib, .bst or other files that may be needed. > In other words, as I'm not sure if I need to ave all these files in the > right subdirectories in the C:\texmf-local directory, or just in one > personal folder where I save all the pieces together, if the later option is > wrong, then I'd like to know this is te problem: i.e., it is not acceptable > to save all the 'pieces' (Thesis.tex, .sty, .cls, .bib, .bst , ...)in one > ad-hoc folder and that's it (having to save 'each piece' in the right > subfolder in the directory C:\texmf-local that I've created for this > purpose) You can put everything in one folder, if you need the cls, sty etc only for the one document. You should put them in a root if you need the cls, sty etc for more than one document - that's less messy. -- Ulrike Fischer |

new laptop same old problem: win7, miktex 2.9, winedt 6.1 configuring inverse dvi so pressing e in the log file takes you to the error in the text file: The problem has seems to be that in some way the call to winedt must be altered. But once again I neither no exactly the syntax to put in and more importantly don't know where the change should be made. It seems to change with each new version. Thanks in advance.

I think you mixed two things in one sentence. For the inverse search of yap to WinEdt add "C:\...\WinEdt 6\winedt.exe" "[Open(|%f|);SelPar(%l,8)]" to the Inverse DVI Search dialog (where "..." is the rest of the path to WinEdt of course). When I am getting an error while running (pdf)latex or texify I press the "x" (not the "e") to stop the execution and it is jumped to the error in WinEdt. > PS I realize this may (??) be more winedt problem than miktex but I don't > know a similar help-list for winedt.

Hello to all, for some reason bigger that me, I think, the proxy-authentication given in Net Installer (which is the correct one) doesn't work with setup-2.9.3927.exe. So I think to download MiKTeX 2.9 from CTAN, so my question is: "Is MiKTeX from: CTAN home/tex-archive/systems/win32/miktex/tm/ the MiKTeX 2.9?" thanks best regards ENRICO TONIOLO _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ATTENTION: This e-mail message contains confidential and/or legally privileged information intended solely for the person to whom it is addressed.

Most packages in miktex/tm/ are version independent. Version dependent packages have numbers e.g.: tex-archive/systems/win32/miktex/tm/packages/miktex-bin-2.8.tar.lzma tex-archive/systems/win32/miktex/tm/packages/miktex-bin-2.9.tar.lzma The setup files are in miktex/setup/ e.g. tex-archive/systems/win32/miktex/setup/basic-miktex-2.9.3927.exe -- Ulrike Fischer |
