Mmmmm.....
I haven't a guaranty answer for this one right now.
Could you send me part of your codes for testing ? Please provide following file structure:
thesis
- conf/...
- template/...
- thesis.tex
Meanwhile, could you try to update latest of MiKTex ?
I am not able to recreate the environment that Win XP with MikTex, the MikTex now shows 'SSL connect error' when downloading the packages, and I am not able to solve this yet.
Yes, me too, have the problem with SLL connect error. I try to update and install new version of Miktex (from Miktex 2.9.4248 change to basic miktex 2.9.6361), but now it's not working anymore, even for other latex files.
Sadly, I tried update XP to SP3 and updated all the patch from Auto Update, it still show the SSL connect error. This bug is mention at the maillist, someone said install the SSL certificates or set the environment variable works on Windows XP. But I still got the error.
After that I installed basic-miktex-2.9.6361-x64.exe
in a latest update Windows 7 which works fine.
Although I think you can install old version of MikTex (maillist mention 2.9.6100
should be fine) to try bypass this problem. But in longer term the updater of MikTex will still also update MikTex itself,
which eventually I think you will back to 2.9.6361
and meet the problem again.
This may become a unsolvable problem in XP.
You was mentioned the reason of using XP is because of the microcontrollers. I assumes you will need to use USB to control it. So I suggest you use another machine with Win 7 (or later version) to bypass this problem. If you don't want another one, try to install VirtualBox and install Win 7 as guest OS.
Thank you,
I have installed miktex 2.9.6022 and it looks fine. I try to install the old version of thesis template.. right now, i use template 1.5.1.
I tried template v1.5.2
in Win 7 with basic-miktex-2.9.6361-x64.exe
and Texmaker USB version 5.0.2
(and 4.5
), and it compiled without any error.
I really think your problem is caused by XP or MikTex (or both).
Good, at least you got a workable version back to work first.
Yes, I can work with my IEEE paper and books, but still not working with dissertation's templates. Firstly, I test my xelatex to compile the original template from version 1.4.8 to 1.5.1 but none of them works. I still got these messages.
I have tried again and again, and it seems the text and contents look fine, except for the cover like so:
There is a big file structure change from 1.4.8
to 1.5.x
, I was told you don't update the template if you don't need to.
I apologize that and suggest you should based on template 1.5.x
and copy and paste from 1.4.8
the needed contents and file.
Base on the design, you should only copy the whole thesis/context
directory and part of the data from file thesis/conf/conf.tex
in your 1.4.8
to the thesis/conf/conf.tex
in template 1.5.x
.
After that this should work as well.
@yusie1978 How do your migration work ? Is it ok ?
No, still not working. Right now I just type it, and if i want to compile in a full version, I will do it in different machine like in other PC (not in laptop).
it has passed a month, I hope your way of switching machine to type it that work fine.
Yes, it's been a month.. Right now i just use the new machine with windows 7 installed. It's been ok. I am planning to remove my Wibdows XP in my laptop, just use Windows 7.
:) Problem solved.
From my personal experience, I will recommend you update to Win 10.
Because I discovered Win 10 is much more simplify on driver installing than Win 7, which Win 7 is always require you to provide installer of the driver. So it is good for installing Win 10 on an old machine than the Win 7.
Also mainstream support of Win 7 is ended on January 13, 2015 (from Wiki). It seem Win 7 is outdating.
Hi, could you help me of how to solve this problem? I try to compile thesis using xelatex in my laptop, but these error messages are shown...
