I have some documents in LaTeX and I cannot get LaTeX to work (I tried
both installations, latex and tetex). I have never had this problem.
I know it is something that I am doing and have searched the mailing lists,
but I can't seem to figure it out. Can anybody please help (I have a
deadline to meet)? By the way, I am trying to send this to freebsd-ports,
the latex maintainer, and the tetex maintainer (FYI, I just submitted a bug
report on tetex, too, since libwww has changed).
When I run latex, this is what happens:
c:\ajloss> make
latex ajloss.latex
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.1)
(ajloss.latex
LaTeX2e <1999/12/01> patch level 1
Babel <v3.6Z> and hyphenation patterns for american, french, german, ngerman, n
ohyphenation, loaded.
No file ajloss.aux.
! LaTeX Error: The font size command \normalsize is not defined:
there is probably something wrong with the class file.
See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.

Stop in /home/nordwick/ajloss.
Yes, I did run 'texconfig', but I don't see what it did.
Thank You
Jason
