I downloaded Textmate (1.5.10) on a new MacBookPro (MacOSX 10.6.7) after using it to typeset LaTeX on my old MacBook. I saved my document folders on my new computer in the same document folder structure and was unable to typeset the .tex
documents. I got the response:
The current PATH is:
/usr/bin
/bin
/usr/sbin
/sbin
Please add the directory containing “kpsewhich” to PATH in TextMate's Shell Variables preferences.
In my TextMate preferences, Advanced>Shell Variables> - I have four categories checked off: PATH /usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
, PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
, _MyCompanyName__ TM_ORGANIZATION__NAME
, & (I tried adding) MY_VARIABLE /usr/texbin
When I click on the Terminal link to "Set PATH and Relaunch", this is what I get:
Last login: Fri Jun 17 16:06:39 on console
defaults write com.macromates.textmate OakShellVariables -array-add "{ enabled = 1; variable = PATH; value = '$PATH'; }" && open "/Users/annlmontgomery/Downloads/TextMate.app"
Ann-Montgomerys-MacBook-Pro:~ annlmontgomery$ defaults write com.macromates.textmate OakShellVariables -array-add "{ enabled = 1; variable = PATH; value = '$PATH'; }" && open "/Users/annlmontgomery/Downloads/TextMate.app"
Ann-Montgomerys-MacBook-Pro:~ annlmontgomery$
But I don't know what to do this step - I'm just learning LaTeX and have no programming experience.
additional note:
I do have MacTex and I included "/usr/texbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin" in the Shell Variables preferences and when I typeset, now I get "env: ruby: No such file or directory" ...any ideas? –
additional note: I have TexShop 2.41 installed
additional note:
in Preferences>Shell Variables - I now have
PATH /usr/texbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin/
PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin
PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/texbin
PATH /usr/texbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin
PATH /usr/bin/usr/texbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin
and when I Typeset - I get "env: ruby: No such file or directory" BTW thanks for everyone's efforts
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin
in the terminal : $ echo $PATH gives /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin. When you install MacTeX, the PATH must contain /usr/texbin/usr/texbin
to yourPATH
. Either make a new path variable or add/usr/texbin:
to the front (or:/usr/texbin
to the end) of one of the existing ones./usr/bin
from your PATH.
