scrreprt .cls is missing

Question

I get the following error on TeXShop when trying to compile:

./thesis.tex:2: LaTeX Error: Missing \begin{document}.

! LaTeX Error: File `scrreprt .cls' not found.

My .tex file looks the following:

\documentclass{scrreprt }
\title{Abstract}
\begin{document}
\maketitle

\end{document}

I updated all packages with TeX Live Utility. And when I select the koma-script package in the program, the scrreprt is available.

But still get that error!

Answer 1

You need to delete the space at the end of scrreprt, before the closing brace.

You can tell because the system is complaining about not seeing "scrreprt .cls" (note the space).
