Howdy,
I am unable to import some older LyX files (from 2000 -- LyX format
version 215) and I'm not finding any solutions on the web or the LyX
archives or Wiki. Inside LyX, I get the following msg:
(MyFile) is from a different version of LyX, but the lyx2lyx script
failed to convert it.
When I try to run lyx2lyx from the command line I get the following
debug info:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./lyx2lyx", line 101, in <module>
sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
File "./lyx2lyx", line 92, in main
file = LyX.File(end_format, input, output, error, debug,
try_hard, cjk_encoding)
File "/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/lyx2lyx/LyX.py",
line 556, in __init__
self.read()
File "/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/lyx2lyx/LyX.py",
line 242, in read
self.encoding = get_encoding(self.language, self.inputencoding,
self.format, self.cjk_encoding)
File "/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/lyx2lyx/LyX.py",
line 128, in get_encoding
return lang[language][3]
KeyError: 'default'
Looking through the LyX file, I do not see any unusual characters;
appears to be standard ASCII all the way. Help/advice appreciated.
