Dear list members, As a newbee to Lyx, recently I tried to set it up and use the Sweave module to document some R codes I have. I ran into problems very similar to the one discussed earlier in this tread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg87193.html I looked through the replies, tried and same problem remained. I have listed what I did below and hope to find a cure. I tried the following steps in two systems: XP + MikTex 2.9 + R 2.13.0 / Win7 + MikTex 2.9 + R 2.13.0 1. put "C:\Program Files\MiKTEX 2.9\miktex\bin" and "C:\Program Files\R\R-2.13.0\bin" into the PATH system variable. 2. download and install RTool for 2.13.x or later, checked to add the appropriate Rtools path during installation. And "C:\Program Files\Rtools\MinGW\bin", "C:\Program Files\Rtools\MinGW64\bin" are in the PATH variable, too. 3. copy noweb.sty and Sweave.sty to "C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\tex\latex\misc" and Refresh FNDB using the MikTex setting interface. I can use "kpsewhich" under command mode to locate these two style files. 4. download LyX-2.0.0-3-Installer and install Lyx. After installation, run the Reconfigure once. When these steps finished, I opened the test file sweave.lyx, the "View" button is "disabled". I can see the Sweave module is loaded in Lyx from the Preference tab with the typical warning: "WARNING: Some required packages are unavailable!" I am pretty much stuck at this point and don't know what else I can do. Any help is truly appreciated. Regards, Ziliang -- Life goes on....
