Hi all,

I am using lyx for a while on windows, and decided today to try the new,
supported ! , windows version. I uninstalled my lyx version the best I
could, and followed the instructions on the Lyx Wiki. Everything seemed fine
until I launch lyx.

Then, while lyx was configuring, just after the message "creating
doc/LaTeXConfig.lyx" has been written on the console, I get a nice windows
window "tr.exe has encoutered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for
the inconvenience". Then it goes on, and while checking for Tex fonts, it
writes "checking for cmex10..." and I have another error message "In.exe has
encountered a problem...", and have the same again while checking for
"cmmi10", "cmr10", "cmsy10", "eufm10", "musam10", "msbm10", "wasy10", then
same error message but about "diff.exe" 5 times. Then, it says that lyx has
been (re)configurated.

When I then try to use lyx, I can open a document and view it in DraftDVI,
but if I try to view it with anything else, I have an error "Cannot convert
file Error while executing python "C:/Program
Files/lyx/Resources/lyx/scripts"" and the message is an ImportError for the
os module.

I have tried reconfigurating lyx, checked all my installs the best I could,
but I have to say I don't know which way to approach it anymore: is it the
Python install or the msys one ??

Anybody has any hint ??

Thanks in advance for your help,

Mélanie
