Hello!
May I ask you a question?
I have a 40 pages document with 2 lyx errors in it. The lyx latex error notes appear at the very begining of the document they are: missing $ inserted and bad math environment delimiter. The first math formula appears many pages later and the error appeared during the time I was working on chapters in the middle of the document. So I do not understand where the errors could be. I tried to go to the tmpdir and to run pdflatex directly, but it was compiling fine, but the index of the resulting file had a strange line. So I checked it and found \( and \) in an index field I removed them and it is now compiling fine with lyx !!
What bug fighting strategy do you recomend in this kind of case?
With problematic compilation errors, the best thing is often to export the document as LaTeX, then run "latex" on it.
