I have just installed MikTeX in the PC. I opened TeXWorks and tried to typeset a sample document using plain TeX. It didn't compile, and I got the following information in the console output:


-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-


Sorry, but "MiKTeX Configuration Utility" did not succeed.


The log file hopefully contains the information to get MiKTeX going again:


C:/Users/tolosaj/AppData/Local/MiKTeX/2.9/miktex/log/initexmf.log


You may want to visit the MiKTeX project page (http://miktex.org), if you

need help.


Sorry, but C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\miktex-pdftex.exe did not succeed.

In turn, the log file says:

I use the file "minilt.tex," as

\input miniltx.tex,

followed by

\RequirePackage{graphicx}

to display pictures. I thought these files were going to be automatically downloaded from

the internet (this is what happens in my mac, and also in my PC at work, running MikTeX), but for some reason they didn't.

Can you indicate me what I am doing wrong?

Thank you,

Juan Tolosa
