Hello
I have annoying problem while using Textmate to edit and view LaTex files.
Very frequently, and I have not been able to determine a pattern to this behavior, I save the current document I'm working on, (apple - s), then I try to view it, (apple - R), the document is processed by pdftex fine with no errors, but Textmate complains that "Error: PDF file not written to disk", even though there are no problems with the texing.
Here is the exact error message displayed in the "Typeset & View" window: <start error message> Compiling LaTeX…
This is pdfeTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.30.4-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.5) Typesetting: ./mathmethods.tex
Document Class: article 2005/09/16 v1.4f Standard LaTeX document class Output written on mathmethods.pdf (1 page, 21844 bytes).
mathmethods.log
Error: PDF file not written to disk <end error message>
I think there might be some issue with the LaTex bundle not parsing the output of pdftex correctly.
FYI, I have a MacPro, OS 10.4.8
Any ideas???
thanks

There was a problem in the past, where it would think the PDF file was older than the document it was generated from (I think when they had exactly the same date).
Kevin recently fixed that -- try upgrade to Cutting Edge (Preferences → Software Update) and let us know if you see the problem after that.
I upgraded to the latest 'Cutting Edge' upgrade, Version 1.5.4 (1349), and the problem appears to be fixed.
thanks much.
By the way, I think it would be a great idea if LaTex mode in TextMate supported an equation preview feature like Emacs, would this be possible with current TextMate architecture, i.e. having images displayed inline with text?

Search in your mathmethods.log file for the words Error and Warning to see what the problems are. Some Latex coding errors do not always show up in the Typeset &View window when an error shuts the Latex processor down.

There is a single instance of "error" at the start of the log indicating that error messages are enabled and and no instances of "warning".
I'll try the cutting edge updates to see if that fixes it as Allan suggested.
thanks
