Hi,
I installed many times latex and it doesn't work. There is a problem
with fonts, which seems to be linked with problems of rights. It says it
cannot find pdftex.map among other files, and cannot access the various
ls-R files in the texmf directories. I run the post-install script,
mktexlsr and other utilities, and always have the same problem with such
ls-R files that cannot be accessed (or created I think). I also created
a new account, took the last setup.exe, installed only the tetex
packages, and it couldn't work either.
I searched the web, this mailing list, and couldn't find anything. I
have the latest cygwin setup, and installed the latest (3.0.0-3)
versions of tetex-bin, tetex-base and tetex-extra. I don't know if I
should add tetex and tetex-tiny; what is it for ? Anyway, when I added
these packages, it didn't work either.
Best regards,
Nicolas
PS: here is attached a typical output when trying to compile a simple
file with pdflatex.

At the risk of being flamed:
You can install the windows MixTex binaries and not have to worry
about fonts or anything. You can access them through your cygwin
shell.

I found this message, and tried "chgrp -h Users" on the directories that
belong to None, but it didn't change anything. I re-installed from
scratch and the "touch ls-R" trick alone worked. What is intriguing is
that I seem to be the only one to have the problem.
Best regards,
Nicolas

Dunno. Take a look at
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-03/msg00454.html; it's a bit vague, but
it's a kind-of known problem. I think it could be to do with installing
cygwin as a local user and maybe then joining the machine to a domain and
becoming a domain user....?

After some search and trial, I have a solution which seems to work. As I
saw that it couldn't access or create any ls-R files, I juste created
with touch all the files mktexlsr couldn't. I then run mktexlsr and
could run pdflatex on my file. Any idea why I got this problem ?

That's my default solution now. But it's not as consistent as with
everything under cygwin. For example I use symbolic links to keep one
copy of the tex file I'm editing, and have all the by-products of latex
compilation in a compilation directory. Of course, MikTex doesn't handle
cygwin symbolic links.
What I don't understand is that it was working about 1 month ago (I
trashed in between the cygwin archives...).
