Need help with Latex error; Sorry LONG

November 21st, 2011 - 11:40 pm ET by John W. Foster | Report spam

I have a texlive-full installation on Debian stable. I'm getting a
compile error on a Mediawiki running a workingwiki extension. This
extension is working correctly as is all of the other components.
However I get the following compile error log from the workingwiki
script.

The culprit seems to be that latex can not locate a file "latexml.sty" that it needs.
On my server that file is located in /usr/share/perl5/LaTeXML/texmf/latexml.sty
Since this is a straight forward setup from debian stable, I'm wondering why latex can not find the file it needs. Is this a bug, maybe?
Thanks!

Yes, sorry that I was unclear. The log files are named, and placed in a
newly created directory with each compile. Therefore each error log has
a new name/directory. This is a function of workingwiki. This keeps them
from being overwritten. Not a very elegant way to do logs, but its got a
purpose. I've pasted the entire log below:

you need to setup the environment correctly, so that texmf finds the package

i.e. using the variable TEXINPUTS or so

Yep, I figured that out from reading on the web & am working on it.
Oddly the author of latexml.sty has a note embedded in the code that
plainly says he is not sure where to place it & I find that extremely
weird. I suspect it varies with each distro & how it relates to other
dependencies. If you know where that is in Debian please advise. At this
point I consider it a bug due to the fact that it's inconsistent within
the 'stable' parameters of my install of a complex set of software that
is all from Debian's 'stable' distro. I tried using texmaker & straight
command line latex to use the system and the results are exactly the
same. Always errors out with a log message involving latexml.sty. I have
found no instruction from anyone involved in packaging the various bits
of software latex/texlive, or perl.
Thanks for the tip!!

second page:

I have found this in system wide .bashrc:

# Enable sage in Texinputs systems wide.
export TEXINPUTS="/home/MyName/sage/local/share/texmf//:"

These instructions from the web are for fixing the issue;

TEXINPUTS Variable and BSTINPUTS
The environmental variable TEXINPUTS controls where LATEX searches for input les, the de-
fault is:
1. First your current directory.
2. Second the local ifp styles held in /ifp/latex/ and its subdirectories.
3. Third the standard system LATEX directories, where are held in /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/
and its subdirectories.
which is what most people want.
The common change people want to make is to add their own local style directory. If this is in
an directory mystyles in you home directory then in your .bashrc le put.
export TEXINPUT=.:/Home/loginname/mystyles/:$TEXINPUTS
Note is must have an initial `.' or it will fail to read input from your current directory. Also do
not forget to append the default TEXINPUTS or nothing will work!
The BSTINPUT variable determines where LATEX looks for BiBTeX styles les. By default it is
set the the same at TEXINPUTS; this is to allow revtex4 to work correctly. It has exactly the
same syntax as TEXINPUTS and can be changed in exactly the same way

Question is how to incorporate them both. This sage installation is a
big part of what I trying to accomplish. I need the incorporated export
to be system wide & cover all the changes to TEXINPUTS. BTW where are
the portions for $TEXINPUTS; seems they should be here too.
Still accepting ANY ideas...
Thanks!
