[ftex-disc]Re: FarsiTeX installation problem

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

I had this problem on my computer too. In my case I had installed MiKTeX in these directory:
D:\MiKTeX\texmf & D:\MiKTeX\localtexmf

When I installed FarsiTeX, I received a message stating that miktex is not installed.

I uninstalled MiKTeX and this time I installed it on the root directory: D:\texmf and D:\localtexmf. I should note that My windows root directory is D:\

This time, the message did not appear and everything was OK.

I hope your problem will be solved as well.

Best regards,
--Mostafa

Hi again,

That's weird. Do you have a localroot key under that registry
address? I don't have any Widows machine [sic] around, so I
cannot check. I'm CCing FarsiTeX discussions lists so somebody
can help you. Sajad, do you have any idea?
