I have previously used Lilypond on an older machine using Vista.
This machine is new, running Windows 10. After installation,
dropping test.ly onto the Lilypond short cut creates a test.log
file but no pdf file as expected. It looks as though Lilypond is
silently quitting before drawing everything.
The contents of test.log are:
# -*-compilation-*-
Processing `D:/Peter/Desktop/test.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
Preprocessing graphical objects...
Finding the ideal number of pages...
Fitting music on 1 page...
Drawing systems...
The closest similar behavior I have seen to this is when I am trying
to regenerate a PDF but that PDF is currently open in another
program. Then due to a sharing violation, LilyPond is unable to
write to the file.
Indeed so. But, for the avoidance of doubt, when this happens, my
Lilypond under Windows 10 shows four more lines in the log file,
including one explaining that Ghostscript failed to create the PDF
file - and anyway leaves behind the intermediate Postscript file.
