Well, looks all very normal, except that the LaTeX run was unable to
produce any images.  There are a number of possible reasons for that:
the most likely one is that the LaTeX run failed completely because of
a bad style file or no "latex" executable in the path, or because of
a write-protected directory or similar.

What is in the run buffer, the thing you get with C-c C-l ?
