error in windows 10

[phsheth]

apologies. i think the bit.ly link in the sample code for trials is missing.

All files present here (except citations bib file):

The second exception shouldn't occur, so that's very much a valid bug.

The exception goes away after all files are included in the folder. It has generated the tex file. I think some .sty files are missing (ptex2tex.sty). For which i think i need to read this: https://github.com/hplgit/ptex2tex/blob/master/README.
Which I will do tomorrow.

Boom! suddenly I have the PDF compiled by texworks
Implementation section does not have the code written properly...

[phsheth]

Although DocOnce seems to be working fair - I am having trouble with the minted package. Went around trouble shooting the minted errors online but I am stuck on an error with \inputlistings line not being fed properly. @KGHustad - by any chance do u have an idea how to deal with it?

I know I am not really helping by pasting all error messages here, but heres the latest:

(base) C:\Users\Pushkar Sheth\Documents\work\doconce_trials\setup4book-doconce-master\doc\src\book>doconce format pdflatex book.do.txt

[KGHustad]

Have you installed preprocess in the same conda environment? If not, try conda install -c conda-forge preprocess.

preprocess should show up when you run the following command

conda list preprocess

[phsheth]

I think we are at the last leg of debugging.
the report.do.txt is generating, \inputlistings issue is also solved.
now to solve preprocess issue.

@KGHustad - do u have a more recent version of the book style format used for recently printed books?

The issue is that Windows does not seem to recognise preprocess as a command even though it should be present in the environment.
Could you try running preprocess or preprocess.exe in the Anaconda command prompt?
I don't know if I have ever tested preprocess on Windows, but I wasn't expecting it to cause any problems.

The book style format has not changed in the past couple of years. I know it could probably use an update, but I don't have the time to do that anytime soon.

[phsheth]

I appreciate your help @KGHustad. Closing this issue here because it is external to doconce.
