This NFSS system isn't set up properly

Question

This NFSS system isn't set up properly

sfo opened this issue 5 years ago · 13 comments

After installing a fresh copy of TexLive 2019, compiling the tudscrreprt example from the manual (section 9.20 in version 2.06a) via pdflatex example.tex, I get the following error:

! LaTeX Error: This NFSS system isn't set up properly.

After pressing enter, the execution continues and produces a valid PDF.
Unfortunately, there is only very little information available online about this specific error message.

Here is the full error log

Answer 1 · 2019-07-12T10:29:28.000Z

I found the source of my problem, sorry for any inconvenience.

Edit: The log says (just before the error message):

No file LGRcmr.fd.

Installing the following packages resolved that issue:

babel-greek
greek-fontenc
cbfonts

Answer 2 · 2019-07-14T19:28:54.000Z

That's something, I should care about.

Answer 3 · 2020-06-06T18:03:36.000Z

I also had this problem with my project in Tex Live 2020. Your solution of adding babel-greek and cbfonts (I already had greek-fontenc) worked.

Answer 4 · 2020-06-08T08:11:45.000Z

As this was already fixed with v2.06b, please consider to update your distribution.

I guess to add some context to my previous reply, I was just letting @sfo know that I found his solution helpful. I am using the article document class, and was receiving this error until I added the packages he identified.

Answer 6 · 2020-06-10T22:47:26.000Z

I've got this issue, I have downloded babel-greek, cbfonts and greek-fontenc but it's still not working. Any ideas?

Answer 7 · 2020-06-11T16:16:51.000Z

Probably your problem has nothing to do with the package 'tudscr', so this is probably not the right place to find help...

BTW: Providing a minimal example that reflects the bug would certainly make troubleshooting easier for volunteers and therefore significantly increase their willingness to address your problem.

@Pawanbhatt500 It depends. How did you install TeXLive?
If you installed it directly from the internet tlmgr is the command to use (I don't use it).

I installed br terminal using the command sudo apt install texlive-latex-extra

Answer 12 · 2023-02-14T14:30:40.000Z

I installed br terminal using the command sudo apt install texlive-latex-extra

so you should do sudo apt install texlive-lang-greek texlive-publishers texlive-latex-recommended texlive-fonts-recommended

Answer 13 · 2023-02-14T19:16:43.000Z

Be aware that for most Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, the version of TeX Live is pretty sure outdated. In your case, it is TeX Live 2020 whereas 2022 is the recent version. I would really recommend to install TeX Live directly.
