General ⇒ Error (I don't understand)

[bazman]

Hey there,

Have just installed new version of TexNicCenter and Miktex.

When I try to build and view an exising file that I know works, I get the errors shown on the attachment?

Seems very strange?

Sorry about that try it now please.

It could be related to the on-the-fly package installation of Miktex. Try to manually install missing packages, if there are. Or try to set the "Install missing packages on-the-fly" (in "Settings", in the start menu of Miktex) to "Yes".

Hi there,

OK i think that has helped but now I have new errors please see attached bitmap.

[MartinC]

It says that the caption package is missing. Just install it with the Miktex package manager.

Thanks for this.

There was another post in the forum where a user had a similar issue.

I am using windows 7 professional (64 bit).

He had exectly the same symptoms as me, but managed to fix it by reinstalling miktex.

Well I did this (three times) but eventually it has started working?

bizarre or what?
