Lyx.org,
Please, even following the instructions of troubleshooting section, I couldn“t open Lyx 1.5.1.1 in Windows XP SP2. The error information is: TextClassList::Read: no textclasses found! What can I do?
Thanks,
Carlos H. Klein


Open a DOS prompt in the folder where you want your LyX user directory. (This typically defaults to C:\Documents and Settings\<your login id>\Application Data\lyx15.) From there, run

<path to LyX>\python\python.exe <path to LyX>\Resources\configure.py

and keep an eye on the output. It will tell you whether it finds LaTeX and whether it finds certain key classes (such as article). Hopefully LyX will start afterward. If you get the same error message, post the contents of the DOS window to the user list.
