Howdy,

Everything looks fine at this end. Can you tell me what

kpsewhich article.cls

returns?

I'm a bit worried that something is wrong with your TeX distribution. Can you also let me know what

ls -alfe@ /usr/local

and

ls -alfe@ /usr/local/texlive

and

ls -alfe@ /usr/local/texlive/2011

give?

Sorry this is taking so long but this is really puzzling.

In the end it may be best to simply re-install MacTeX-2011.

Good Luck,
