Hi,

I'm trying to get math input working in my own wiki. Unfortunately something is messed up with my texvc-installation. I know that latex, dvips, gs and convert are in my apache path. Instead, I think texvc isn't really working here. When I do:

# mkdir tmp out # echo | ./texvc tmp out 'x \not\in \Sigma' iso-8859-1 +5e6c5975facb1fd4f0895accca92d451-

I found the file tmp/8435_5e6c5975facb1fd4f0895accca92d451.tex in my tmp directory. Poking around with strace -f it appears, that latex cannot find the temporary texfile and consequently texvc gives up. Here's the relevant bits:

[pid 8446] access("./tmp/8444_bc30a6e8e7394384dc79e75a32f251f3.tex", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

in the thread that executes latex. I double checked, the file does exist. [1]

The error message I get is: Parser-Fehler (PNG conversion failed; check for correct installation of latex, dvips, gs, and convert).

I'm really stuck here.

TIA, Viktor
