[MiKTeX] Complaint to user's group and log file attached.

[Dr A K H. <kei...@ma...>]

Miktex-users group

I enclose below part of a reply received in answer to a question I
posed.

I feel insulted by the snide or sneering remarks made in that reply,
and I think you should point this out to these people.

As a matter of fact, they seem not to be very conversant with the
TexnicCentre setup if they've never heard of the command "build".

And working within the TexnicCentre, what program other than Latex
could one be using?

However, someone asked for the .log file created at the time, and I
have attached that here since I still have the problem.

Thank you.

Keith Hannaby.

Dr Noack

Please allow me to start again...

I'm working within MikTek 2.7 using the AMSBOOK document class and,
after working for awhile, one does a current file "build" - I think
it means "compile" (from a drop-down menu) to create a .dvi file (or
a pdf file as of choice) and a number of other files like .aux,
.log, etc.

No .dvi file is created and I get the message "Underfull \hbox
(badness 10000)" at the bottom of the screen.

At that point, the program will not allow me to save my work giving
the message: "Cannot create a file when that file already exists."

Previously, I have had no trouble using "build" which you are
advised to use twice.

[I happen to use "build" followed by "build and view" in order to
see the dvi contents.] / Once the Underfill message appears, the
menus become inoperative.

So I can't see how to remedy the situation.

/

Regards

Keith

And it is also usually called "compile".

A drop-down menu? What are you talking about? Are you using some
LaTeX-compliant text editor, such as Winedt?

At lest post your your .log file. That might help.
