Hi everyone,

Trying to make my first steps in publishing.
I'm working on Mac, using Emacs 23.2.1 with Org-mode version 6.36trans.

I seem to have various LaTeX stuff installed on my MacBook. I have to 
admit that I have no experience with LaTeX whatsoever. (TeXShop, 
LaTeXit, TeXWorks) So I'm not sure if my configuration if any is correct 
in this view.

When I issue:
C-c C-e p
I get following message:
-------------------------
For information about GNU Emacs and the GNU system, type C-h C-a.
OVERVIEW
CHILDREN
SUBTREE
Select command:
Exporting to PDF...
Exporting to LaTeX...
Saving file /Users/erwin/git/org/Erhard.tex...
Wrote /Users/erwin/git/org/Erhard.tex
Saving file /Users/erwin/git/org/Erhard.tex...

LaTeX export done, pushed to kill ring and clipboard
Processing LaTeX file...
(Shell command failed with code 127 and some error output) [2 times]
Processing LaTeX file...done
org-export-as-pdf: PDF file was not produced
------------------------

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks for helping out!

Erwin

  You may not be doing anything wrong. Is there a buffer which contains
  the error output?
  
  If not, try running 'pdflatex yourorgfile.tex' in the directory with
  your Org file. By default, a file named .tex is written there by the
  export.
  
  You should be able to debug it further with that output.
  
  Good luck! (FYI, ask on IRC too)

  Hi Erwin,
  
  
  not sure about MAC, but for most UNIX shells (i think), a return value
  of 127 means "command not found".  It seems some LaTeX packages are
  missing.
  
  Most of us use the TexLive distribution, a collection of the most
  commonly used LaTeX packages and binaries.
  
  Are you able to execute the command `pdflatex' in a console?
  
  
    Sebastian

      Hi Sebastian,
    
    Thanks for your very fast reply :-)
    Yes, I can issue 'pdflatex' from a console:
    -------------------------------------
    macbook:~ erwin$ pdflatex
    This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.10 (TeX Live 2009)
    **
    -------------------------------------
    
    I assume it must be a matter of config?

      Hi Erwin,
      
      Does Emacs know the path to your LaTeX executables?
      
      I have these lines in .emacs (don't know why I have both and not sure  
      now if one or both are needed):
      
           (setenv "PATH" (concat (getenv "PATH") ":/usr/texbin"))
           (setq exec-path (append exec-path '("/usr/texbin")))
      
      hth,
      Tom

      I think you need to let Emacs know that you want to run pdflatex.  this
      can be done in various ways.  In current AucTeX you switch between PDF
      and DVI output by C-c C-t C-p for instance, in older versions you needed
      to enter a whole bunch of command strings to do the same thing.
      
      
      Achim.
