just tried the new 1.3.6 bin of lyx/mac and have some troubles I can't solve. (System is 10.4.2 and I use Gerben Wierdas i-installer 2004 TeXLive Version of tetex)

Same.

As recommended for users of previous versions I started with executing the LyX Installer after replacing the old App Bundle with the new one. It found my TeX installation installed the additional files in my texmf.local and I started 1.3.6 for the first time.

Everything looked fine, but when I tried to open one of my LyX Documents I was told that the required class file is not present. OK did a reconfigure, quit and started again with the same error. Removed the LyX dir in Application support, started Lyx again did a reconfigure, quit, start - same error (all classes are marked unavailable in the documents property window). Found out that in textclass.lst in ~/Application Support/LyX all classes are marked "false". Made a texhash and tried again - nothing changed. Btw, packages.lst, styFiles.lst, bstFiles.lst, clsFiles.lst are empty. Manually switched some class files I needed "true" in ~/Application Support/LyX/textclass.lst. Document opened fine, but the preview menu didn’t give me any possibility to preview as dvi or pdf. The entries are missing.

That’s the Situation now for me. Has anybody an idea how to solve that Problem and make the configure process work and tell LyX what Latex packages, stales, classes etc. are installed?

Same for me.

using Terminal,

lyx -version

gives:

Should bennett's directories be in here?

There also seems to be an attempt to may a lyxpipe(?) still ~/.lyx -- this seems wrong.
