This is a known problem we are working on. Workaround: Open an
internet connection and reconfigure LyX.
Uwe, if the option is set to off (no download whatsoever), can
configure succeed? I guess configure will get current class list and
start lyx properly.
Yes this should work, but then the users complain that not all needed packages are installed; that's
the dilemma. So installing with an open internet connection will help.
I'll ask the MiKTeX developer about the status of this bug (he has a lot of work with the Vista
stuff at the moment). I'll inform the lists as soon there is a solution.
BUT I was too rash with my advice, because the missing textclass problem will remain for new users
because MiKTeX's environment variables aren't immediately written after the installation so that LyX
will fail to find it the first time. I wrote an email to this and the devel list last week that I
solved this in LyXWinInstaller by chance by calling the configure script twice.
