Problem with latex


Hi,

I installed many times latex and it doesn't work. There is a problem with fonts, which seems to be linked with problems of rights. It says it cannot find pdftex.map among other files, and cannot access the various ls-R files in the texmf directories. I run the post-install script, mktexlsr and other utilities, and always have the same problem with such ls-R files that cannot be accessed (or created I think). I also created a new account, took the last setup.exe, installed only the tetex packages, and it couldn't work either.

I searched the web, this mailing list, and couldn't find anything. I have the latest cygwin setup, and installed the latest (3.0.0-3) versions of tetex-bin, tetex-base and tetex-extra. I don't know if I should add tetex and tetex-tiny; what is it for ? Anyway, when I added these packages, it didn't work either.
Best regards,


Nicolas

PS: here is attached a typical output when trying to compile a simple file with pdflatex.
