Bug Description
Hi,
I am running Zim release 0.60 on a Windows 7 - 64 bit host. I'd like to use the plugin 'Insert Equation'. To do so, I have installed the basic Miktex package release 2.9.4813. I can activate the plugin in the plugins list, since the dependencies are fulfilled (latex and dvipng are installed). Now when I want to insert an equation the following happens:
a) I click on 'Preview': An empty graph with a red cross is created
b) I click on 'OK': An error message pops up: 'An error occurred while generating the image. Do you want to save the source text anyway?'
I have tried different Zim releases without success. Do you have any ideas? Maybe I have to modify the Windows path variables (https:/
Thanks for your help,
Simon

I don't think the path variable is the problem -- if the plugin can be
enabled, it found the applications.
When you generate a preview, can you open the latex log in the dialog to
see if there is any error there?
If not check %TMP%/zim.log to see if there is an error output there.
Regards,
Jaap
