Hi,
I'm new to teTeX on cygwin.
I follow the instruction in
/usr/doc/Cygwin/tetex-beta-20001218.README
deinstall and reinstall the teTeX-beta distribution, like explaint
in the mail archive.
Delete the ls-R - file and execute
texconfig confall
texconfig rehash
texconfig init
with no errors!
But even then, I got no fmt files for latex, tex, etex, elatex or
even the pdftex family.
What have I to do, to get teTeX running?
Regards
Ralf

I'm in the process of providing a texmf tree for tetex. Also, Jerome
is preparing a new tetex executables package. So there is hope.

That's strange. Are you sure all necessary libraries are there?
> What have I to do, to get teTeX running?
You could try pointing your setup.exe to
http://lilypond.org/gnu-windows/testing
or just run:
http://lilypond.org/gnu-windows/testing/setup.exe
and install tetex-beta and at least one of texmf-tiny or texmf-base.
You don't have to install lilypond, of course.
This is all experimental, but there have been some success reports.
Maybe better if you'd uninstall tetex-beta first. Please let us know
if it works.
Greetings,
Jan.

Thank you for your answer.

After removing the old tetex-beta, I've installed all the stuff there:
- tetex-beta
- texmf-base
- texmf-extra
The good message:
The fmt-Files are now there and will be found.
But, if I call pdflatex I got the following error message:
Error: pdflatex (file pdftex.cfg): cannot open config file
This file was initially not in the texmf-tree. So I copy it from
the last teTeX-texmf-1.0 release.
After
texconfig confall
texconfig rehash
texconfig init
this file is also in
/usr/share/texmf/ls-R
but pdflatex can't find it anyway.
So I try to use pure latex.
This is the error message I got:
! LaTeX Error: File `article.cls' not found.
Seems that something principally is broken. Some ideas where I have to dig?
Regards
Ralf

Ok, thanks, so this really seems to work.

Hmm, there's been a problem with that before. I'll look into this.

That's really strange. Do you have environment variables set, such as
TEXINPUTS? This should not be necessary, but if you do, note that
tetex needs unix style paths, not dos style like miktex.
What do kpsewhich commands like
17:29:23 fred@appel:~$ kpsewhich cmr10.tfm
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/public/cm/cmr10.tfm
17:29:26 fred@appel:~$ kpsewhich article.cls
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/article.cls
say?
Greetings,
Jan.

Rebuilding the tetex-beta package leads to a similar error:
I hope to be able to fix it soon !
