I am writing my thesis with LaTeX and since today very curious errors turn up. I wrote something and made a citication in the file references.bib, and then the errors turned up. Befor writing that few lines everything worked great. Thus, I deleted everything I've added. But the errors still turn up. One Error is: Extra }, or forgotten $. ...ckoverflow Permission SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW}. I think my citication (which I've deleted after the errors turned up) is still stored somewhere , because "ckoverflow Permission SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW" was a part of the title of the cite.
I hadn't found any error in any file.
The next weird thing is that a mate of mine can compile that files without any problems. He is using WinEdt. I am using TeXStudio, but I've tried it with WinEdt, too.
There is a screenshot of my errors:
Please help me, any suggestions are appreciated.
Best regards
Looks like you might need to escape your _ characters there, as they are normally used for subscript, but only in math mode; hence the "missing $ inserted".
(La)TeX error messages make me sad... :(

My code is pretty long and has a lot of If statements. There are also a few small for loops all nested within a larger for loop. I am getting a compiler error "Next without for". I am sure I am missing something pretty simple. I just can't find it. Is there some editor that I can use that will pair the statements and show me where the disconnect is? Is there some great method for tracking down an error like this? I certainly hate to ask anyone to pick through my code and find the error. I'd like to learn to help myself. I am in learning mode.
I was missing an End If statement. That was my issue.
Thank for the replies. I thought I had indented properly, and I think that going through line by line and checking that would have found my issue.
I ended up finding it by going through and cutting some of the blocks of ifs and loops inside of the big loop until I found the offending section.
I have a weird hard-to-localize issue with vim. It's almost certainly a weird custom configuration that is my fault, but I don't know (1) what I should be looking for and (2) how to reproduce it. I don't know if anyone will be able to help, but its been plaguing me for years, so I thought I'd at least make a post about it.
The issue is that after using vim, I occasionally find weird files in the directories I was working. The file names were usually characters I was typing. I have absolutely no idea what is triggering this, and it doesn't happen that often, so its hard to simply comment out a piece of my vimrc check if it occurs and narrow it down that way.
Examples of the file names I get are:
= np.diff(bins)
ep='')
= {
(shape0, device=device"
_rect = cv2.undistortPoints(left_corners, cameraMatrix, distCoeffs)
elf.alt_fc = nh.layers.MultiLayerPerceptronNd(
=feat_dim, noli=swish,
hape0 = (
ys, ubelt
tates, evidence=evidence)
ample_input = torch_encoder_result
tack = kwimage.stack_images(imgs, axis=1, resize='smaller')
hear_range=(-10, 10)
There is nothing in common between the files names that I can see. The majority have an "=" and a paren, but not all. I really have no idea how to reproduce this error. I feel like I must have a habit of hitting an incorrect key stroke that causes this issue, or there is some plugin doing something weird, or I have a crazy configuration (which I do).
The contents of the files varies. Sometimes they look like git differences. The one from the first example was the page for "less --help" (yes I grepped for that). Another is what looks like a docstring for a python class (I'm not 100% sure if this only happens with Python files, because most of my vim usage is Python).
Any tips that anyone has for how to further debug this would be appreciated.
Just for reference this is my vimrc: https://github.com/Erotemic/local/blob/master/vim/portable_vimrc and it does reference and source several other files in that repo, so I don't expect anybody to be able to parse it and figure it out.
If I was to take a guess I'd say its probably an auto-commands that's doing it, and I do have all of those auto-commands defined in this file: https://github.com/Erotemic/local/blob/master/vim/rc_settings/autocommand_settings.vim but I don't see anything that would cause this issue.
Please reference the attached screenshot.
I am working on a scrapy pipeline. I am using Sublime Text 3 with Anaconda/AutoPep8. I just moved over from ST2 where I did not have AutoPep8 or Anaconda.
The huge white dot is telling me that this line has invalid syntax. I could not figure out what the problem was, so I copied the line and pasted it here on line 1 of what was then an empty file. The syntax error still showed, suggesting it was not a problem with a prior line missing a closing parenthesis.
Then I made up some similar code, lines 3, 6, & 9. As you can see, they all pass muster. (I don't care about the other little errors, they are not the issue).
Then I pasted in the entire method over onto this new document, and now, as you can see, even the suspect line (22) passes.
Then I copied and pasted the whole class, and again, as you can see, line 49, the code it was complaining about before now doesn't cause any issues at all.
I tried using the command palette - PEP8: Preview Changes, (see https://github.com/wistful/SublimeAutoPEP8) but nothing happened.
I also tried the right click menu Anaconda > Autoformat PEP8 Errors but the E501 errors (line too long) were ignored and nothing happened with the supposed syntax error in the if statement.
Note: When I first started using AutoPep8 to fix E501 errors last week, I noticed that about halfway through a script, it suddenly stopped reporting errors at all. Don't know if this is related.
I also get this error when ST3 starts: https://github.com/DamnWidget/anaconda/issues/514. However, the consensus seems to be that if Sublime works even after you click through this error, it is nothing to worry about. I just mention this to give you as much as I know so you can help.
I also tried turning len('advocate') into a string, but the syntax error remains.
What is going on here? Is there a bug in Anaconda, AutoPep8, ST3, or my code?
Ubuntu 16.04, Python 3.4, (but 'automatic' build in ST3) ST3 Build 3126 (I don't know how the Build number lines up with a version number) Anaconda, AutoPep8 version numbers unknown, but I got them less than two weeks ago.
Well, it took a lot of very patient Googling and a comparison test in VSCode, but I have the astoundingly simple answer: I should have put '==', not '=' ! Yes, dear friends, it is basic Python. = means assignment, == mean equality or comparison. My if is of the latter type, because you can't make an assignment in an if statement. Now VSCode didn't make this any clearer, I think they both use Pylint, but it at least let me know that this was probably a valid error, whether I understood it or not. (Unless of course I know more that the devs at Pylint...Yea, not likely).
Kudos to Jean Mark Gawron, (who must be related to the Klingon Emperor) for giving me the answer: http://gawron.sdsu.edu/python_for_ss/course_core/book_draft/programming_intro/boolean_results.html
I'm not sure if this question is appropriate here but I have nowhere else to ask. I recently started to typeset some 'mathsy' stuff using Latex and it became a hobby for me. I've been using TeXnicCenter for this, but feeling that I've got familiar with Latex language, I decieded to improve 'efficiency' of typesetting by changing the editor.
So I decided to use Vim (latest version, 7.4) with Suite-Latex. I've just installed Vim and Suite-Latex, following exactly what was instructed here. I made every necessary changes mentioned here, and it seemed to me that installation was successful (I got what was expected on Step 4)
Then I started to work through this tutorial and everything went fine until this section.
When I press F9 for autoreference, I see that Vim is working on something for split seconds and red error message refering to "can't find [some file name]" in my user/appdata/local/temp directory. The "file name" changes every time I do this (so its kind of temporary file as its directory suggests?). And then it produces a new window with title __ OUTLINE __ where 2 empty lines are showing up.
If I press n (in the new window described above) error message saying "E486: Pattern not found: rf" pops up and pressing j results in going down one row. If I press enter key, message ":call Tex_FinishOutlineCompletion()" pops up.
More frustratingly, if I try to compile a file by entering command \ll, a new window pops up where there are two lines saying:
1.ll I can't find file `newfile.tex'. newfile.tex
2.ll Emergency stop
and below these is a message saying
[Quickfix list]: latex -interaction=nonstopmode -file-line-error-style newfile.tex
So I thought it maybe is something to do with VIM not being able to find files in my computer (so something wrong with grep?), and I tried to resolve it by downloading a software called "cygwin" on which developers said their tests were successful, but it changed nothing.
But I think the two problems are related.
As it is, I am completely newbie in this type of editing environment (or any kind of programming) but I really would like to learn some Vim seeing how efficient it is in typesetting etc. Sorry for not being a pro at typing codes here. Thanks for reading!
I believe you need a latex compiler---I've had this issue and well, one thing that's left out of the conversation a lot is the compiler (pdflatex, latexmk, etc). As of now, you should download a compiler since vim-latex (latex-suite) doesn't actually come with a compiler (that I know of) and it's just a plug in with some cool stuff in it, but not what you need to make a file.pdf out of your file.tex.
It happened to me before. I found out that this problem may happen when you have special characters (such as white space and other symbols) in your file name or folder path. Try again with file name and path only in English letters.
this is the first time I'm encountering this kind of issue.
I have a perfectly working code that runs without any issue under 3 different platforms (Win/Linux/OS X).
However after the deploytool compilation a part of it stops working. How can I get the error once the code is compiled!? It seems that it has some problems in loading and reading .mat files. Is that possible?
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks
edit:
I've solved the problem! Unfortunately was all addpath fault!
I have a lot of folders with files and functions that are needed for running the code, after the compilation matlab does a mess with all of that folders.
Good hint: do not use addpath for the compilation! Thank you anyway!
You can try to catch the error and write it to a text file. Or build in a check that prints text to the screen.
A bit more in general: You can try to isolate the part of the code that has the problem, and then basically cut out half of the functionality in this part repeatedly until you have exactly found the source of the error.
