 I just committed a few fixes, please try again.

It doesn't fix it. I still have to do a change in the preferences dialog to generate the preferences file. Then I need to restart LyX and then it works.

Have you looked at the path names used/generated by the preferences dialog?


Peter, perhaps you have a another idea why I need to have a preferences file to make LyX output files. Without this (that's the case when you just installed LyX) LyX created the file, but don't move it from the temp folder to the destination folder (where the LyX file is).

regards Uwe



Uwe's entry from bugzilla:

"
Still the case and a must fix for LyX 1.6.0. LyX's LaTeX output is the same as
LyX 1.5.6's  the problem is in our FileName.cpp:

D:\LyXSVN\lyx-devel\src\support\FileName.cpp(238): Could not move file C:/Docume
nts and Settings/usti/Local Settings/Temp/lyx_tmpdir.Uhg712/lyx_tmpbuf0/0D__Down
load_01.JPG to C:/Documents and Settings/usti/Local Settings/Temp/lyx_tmpdir.Uhg
712/lyx_tmpbuf0/0D__Download_01.jpg
"


When such patches are passed to a native windows function I assume it will fail
because of the slashes and the spaces. When there are spaces in the path we need
quotes around them. Maybe is works when this path is generated-with the quotes:
"C:\Documents and Settings\usti\Local Settings\Temp\yx_tmpdir.Uhg712\lyx_tmpbuf0\0D__Download_01.jpg"
