Hi:
I installed Texlive 2005 successfully on windows XP, but because I
found it difficult to get it to work with Xemacs so I unistalled it and
installed Xemtex. This had other problems, so I unsintalled it and
reinstalled TexLive. Now I get the error:
error copying "C:/TexLive2005/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf": no such file
or directory. The program selects automatically texmf-var/web2c; I seem
to recall that the first time the directory was texmf-web2c for TEXMF.
THe details for the error gives:
while executing "source $filename install"
invoked from within (if file exist (file dirname $sourcedir) tlpm.exe)
then
{source $filename install}
else {
tk_message ... etc
I tried all kinds of things like deleting the old TeXLive2005 directory
before reinstalling, but nothins seems to work. I have tries both the
dvd and the cdrom, both give the same result.
Have I change unwittingly changed something, or is there are problem
here?
Thanks.
