I have had MediaWiki 1.15.5 set up with Math version 1.0 on an OpenBSD 4.8
system for taking notes in my calculus courses for awhile now. I haven't
really had many problems with it, after struggling to get it set up. That
is, of course, until I finally rebooted the machine awhile ago. Now any
time I try to add a new set of LaTeX markup within the <math>...</math>
tags, I get the error that I remember so well from setting this system
up: *Failed
to parse (PNG conversion failed; check for correct installation of latex,
dvips, gs, and convert): \int_b^a f(x)dx.*
*
*
This time, of course, it's a little bit more complicated, because each one
of those binaries is exactly where it's supposed to be on my system. I
can't for the life of me figure out what is going on or how to fix this,
and not having my wiki online for taking notes this semester is really
killing me. I can't even find any good log files for more detailed errors.
Of course the system is fine when it's converting some LaTeX that just has
to be changed into an html string, it's only when it's trying to create an
image for it that it fails.
Can anybody give me any suggestions on where to find resources that might
help with this, or has anyone else run into this problem at all? I'm open
to anything I can get, pointers, suggestions, even help with where to find
(or how to find) more detailed logs on the problem. Any help you can offer
is appreciated. If this is off-topic due to it being an issue with an
extension, I'll be happy to move this to an appropriate venue once I find
one.
Thank you.
