I am something of a newbie to Textmate. When I try to compile with the Latex Bundle, I get the following message:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The current PATH is:
/usr/bin /bin /usr/sbin /sbin /usr/local/bin /usr/X11/bin Please add the directory containing “kpsewhich” to PATH in TextMate's Shell Variables preferences.
Alternatively, the PATH can be retrieved from Terminal but this requires a relaunch: Set PATH and Relaunch.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I saw that there were users on this list who had encountered similar difficulties, but I tried some of the suggested solutions, and they didn't seem to work.
When I launch the alternative path, it creates a new path which is exactly the same as the previous path. I would be grateful for any help with this. I can't seem to figure out how to get this to work, despite numerous attempts.
Thanks in advance for considering helping me out with this.
Best, Miguel
Suppose that you are using texlive, then you go to TextMate Preferences Advanced Shell Variables Then you add variable= PATH value= /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin

Thanks for your message. That was the original path, but it didn't seem to work.
Are there other possibilities of something else that might need to be changed?

Miguel,
1) First you need to install correctly MacTeX When MacTeX is installed, you have in the pref system a tool : "Distribution TeX". With this tool you can verify what are the versions of macTeX installed in your system.
2) You can verify in the terminal with $ echo $PATH for me the PATH value is
[ego at mbp:~] $ echo $PATH /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/texbin:/usr/X11/bin
Actually you can install the MacTeX 2011 here : http://tug.org/texlive/mirmon/
Is a prerelease but it works very well. I think if you install a new version of MacTeX the past would be correct. The path of the new version will be :
/usr/local/texlive/2011 you can verify actually if you have /usr/local/texlive/2009 or 2010 ?
I think that your problem comes from the installation.
Logically with "Distribution TeX" you can see the new version of MacTeX
3) you can modify directly the path in your system. I'm not a great unix expert but I think you must have in the /etc/
a file named "paths" that contains
/usr/bin /bin /usr/sbin /sbin /usr/local/bin
and a folder "pathhs.d" that contains a file named "TeX" . In this file you need to have /usr/texbin
I hope all these informations can help you
Greetings
Alain
This worked great! Thanks so much.
Best, Miguel
