Textmate/ SWeave: Error PDF file not written to disk
I played with it a little more and I think I have gotten it to work
properly for me. I still don't entirely understand why this works (!)
so follow at your own risk :) First a bit of clarification, I set my
TextMate up with TM_LATEX_COMPILER set to latexmk.pl (in TextMate
Preferences). Then these 2 changes are made.
1)
need new version of latexmk.pl in . The original version is 3.07a, I
got the one from
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/latexmk/
which is 4.05. It should be at
~/Library/Application Support/TextMate/Pristine Copy/Bundles/
SWeave.tmbundle/Support/bin/latexmk.pl
which might be different if you installed it using other methods.
2)
In "Sweave, Typeset & View", change a line in run_tex()
from
else "$TEX" -f -r "${TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT}/latexmkrc" "$1"
to
else "$TEX" -f -pdf "$1"
* I am not sure why I need to call -pdf to get it to produce the pdf
while wasn't needed in the original version.
* I don't have latexmkrc in my support directory and this option was
making latexmk.pl unhappy.
Note:
* you still need Sweave.sty somewhere
* I commented out the standard error pipe in my last post. But with
these changes I can (and should) revert the change.
Hope this helps. It would be great if someone can fix this properly
instead of using some voodoo hack.

I ran into the same problem today (at least the symptoms matched) and it took me some time to figure this out... Basically I solved this by copying the file Sweave.sty to the same directory as the the .rnw file. I suppose you can also try to add the path to Sweave.sty. But then, by having the file in the same directory, when you send your stuff to other people, it is more likely that you will include it and prevent your collaborators from having the same problem.
Yes, that's one problem (I solved it by copying the Sweave.sty into my texmf-local directory). Unfortunately, it does not solve my real problem, because the Sweave does work (--> the .tex-file is produced).
A related issue is that the "missing Sweave.sty" error isn't shown in the TextMate output when you run "Sweave, Typeset, & View" even though it looks like it should. run_tex "$FILE" 2>&1| latexErrWarnHtml.py -v I haven't really looked into this though. For now I just comment out the redirecting part run_tex "$FILE" # 2>&1| latexErrWarnHtml.py -v so that I can see the LaTeX errors.
I agree - the problem should lie in the following portion of code in
the Sweave.tmbundle:
run_tex () {
if [ "$TEX" != latexmk.pl ]
then "$TEX" ${TM_LATEX_OPTIONS:=-interaction=nonstopmode -file-line-
error-style} "$1"
else "$TEX" -f -r "${TM_BUNDLE_SUPPORT}/latexmkrc" "$1"
fi
}
# Compile.
run_tex "$FILE" 2>&1| latexErrWarnHtml.py -v
Unfortunately my skills are to limited to track the error ... maybe
someone else has an idea?
Best regards,
Felix

Dear list, I encountered a problem in the combination of Textmate and the SWeave bundle: when I start "Sweave, typeset & View", the .Rnw-file is processed, but the log window shows "Error: PDF file not written to disk" and the tex-file is not processed. However, the sweaving was successful, as a valid .tex-file is in the same folder which can be typesetted without problem. So, in general it works, I just want to avoid the extra step of opening the .tex-file and would like to see my pdf directly from SWeave-Bundle. Did anyone encounter the same problem / any suggestions for solutions? Best regards, Felix
