</div></div>In fact, in the "/usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf" file, there was already these lines:<br>
error_line = 79<br>
half_error_line = 50<br>
max_print_line = 79<br>
<br>
So, I have replaced them by:<br>
error_line=254<br>
half_error_line=238<br>
max_print_line=1000<br>
<br>
I have done that instead of adding these lines at the end of the file.<br>
It works fine now.<br>
<br>
I have also tried to create the missing "/usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf.cnf" file and adding these three lines but in this case, it does not work.<br>
<br>
In fact, as I am on Slackware 14.1, my texlive 20130530 has been patched.<br>
So, my path are maybe not the one of the original texlive 20130530 version.<br>
For example, instead of "/usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf" I have "/usr/share/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf".<br>
And I thought that instead of "/usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf.cnf" the system-distributed file could be "/usr/share/texmf.cnf".<br>
Maybe my guess is wrong and it explains why it does not work with this system-distributed file.<br>
<br>
Is there a way to know where is the system-distributed file?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>At first, type "echo $PATH" and examine the result. You can also try "which tex" to see which executable is used. In the list defined in PATH the first one wins. Usually it makes no problem if you have several TeX distributions in PATH but it may be a source of weird behaviour. Suppose you have TeX from your linux distro in /usr/share/bin and /usr/share/texmf-dist and TeX Live in /usr/local/texlive/2014. TeX from linux distros is often incomplete. It may thus happen that you call some binaries from /usr/share/bin and other binaries from /usr/local/texlive/2014/bin/arch. I saw a lot of weird errors causing by such a mess.<br><br></div><div>My suggestion is:<br></div><div>1. If you are happy with your linux distro's TeX, do not install TeX Live from TUG<br></div><div>2. If you want TeX Live from TUG and you are unable to instruct you linux not to install its own TeX, put TeX Live binary path to the _beginning_ of PATH.<br><br></div><div>Other useful cdiagnostic commands are:<br></div><div>which kpsewhich<br></div><div>kpsewhich -all texmf.cnf<br><br></div><div>(kpsewhich manual is worth reading)<br></div><div><br><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature">Zdeněk Wagner<br><a href="http://hroch486.icpf.cas.cz/wagner/" target="_blank">http://hroch486.icpf.cas.cz/wagner/</a><br><a href="http://icebearsoft.euweb.cz" target="_blank">http://icebearsoft.euweb.cz</a></div></div>
