I just wanted to draw a TikZ picture. This requires pgf, tikz and some other packages. I have access to the administrators account and wanted to make these packages available to all users. I startedt the MiKTex 2.9 Package Manager (Admin) and selected the first required package "pgf". When I started "install". The Pakcage Manager did this: starting package maintenance... installation directory: "C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9" package repository: http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/ctan/systems/win32/miktex/tm/packages/ lightweight database digest: 8bf1629e89c2ebe3259d18f353cdfe44 going to download 5606409 bytes going to install 412 file(s) (1 package(s)) downloading http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/ctan/systems/win32/miktex/tm/packages/pgf.tar.lzma... 5606409 bytes, 625.22 KB/Sec extracting files from pgf.tar.lzma... After the download I get the problem report: MiKTeX Problem Report Message: Windows API error 87: The parameter is incorrect. Data: C:\ProgramData\MiKTeX\2.9\miktex/data/le\be48a8a88e3570f31e8be8fd4a43a2fd.fndb Source: Libraries\MiKTeX\Core\win\winMemoryMappedFile.cpp Line: 120 MiKTeX: 2.9 OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Business Edition, 64-bit Service Pack 1 (build 7601) Invokers: explorer SystemAdmin: yes PowerUser: no Root0: C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\MiKTeX\2.9 Root1: C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\MiKTeX\2.9 Root2: C:\ProgramData\MiKTeX\2.9 Root3: C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9 UserInstall: C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\MiKTeX\2.9 UserConfig: C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\MiKTeX\2.9 UserData: C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\MiKTeX\2.9 CommonInstall: C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9 CommonConfig: C:\ProgramData\MiKTeX\2.9 CommonData: C:\ProgramData\MiKTeX\2.9 I gave up with this try and allowed per-user installation of the packages since I wanted to continue work. But what's wrong with the Package Manager? How can I fix this problem? /Andy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.
