Enrico, It still does not work.
My path: /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/cygdrive/d/texmf/miktex/bin :/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/FILENET/IDM:/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/FILENET/SHARED:/c ygdrive/c/ORACLE/ORA817/BIN:/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/ORACLE/JRE/112EBD~1.7/B IN:/cygdrive/c/WINNT/SYSTEM32:/cygdrive/c/WINNT:/cygdrive/c/WINNT/SYSTEM 32/WBEM:/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/COMMON~1/ADAPTE~1/SYSTEM:/cygdrive/c/PROGRA ~1/COMMON~1/AUTODE~1:/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/COMMON~1/CYCOSH~1:/cygdrive/c/ ORANT/jdk/bin:/cygdrive/c/orant/bin I have /usr/local/bin latex as you suggested. I get a pop-up box from lyx saying: An error occurred whilst running python '/usr/local/share/lyx/scripts/clean_dvi.py' And in the cygwin console I get: $ lyx-winbin.exe Locale nl_NL could not be set OkApplyCancelReadOnlyPolicy: No transition for input SMI_OKAY from state INITIAL OkApplyCancelReadOnlyPolicy: No transition for input SMI_OKAY from state INITIAL LColor::getFromLyXName: Unknown color "default" cygpath: can't convert empty path /usr/local/bin/latex: line 31: exec: schippershandleiding.tex: not found schippershandleiding.dvi: schippershandleiding.dvi: No such file or directory Unable to read "schippershandleiding.dvi" Any ideas? It looks to me like there still is some path issue.

Indeed. But, as I already said, it needs to be reviewed. I was missing this case and then there is the PATH prefix handling one. As it is now, the PATH prefix is to be entered in posix format, irrespectively of the checkbox status (whose name needs to be changed, too). My plan is to do that, but my spare time is a limited resource... -- Enrico
