[Bug 1746083] [NEW] PDF export fails with message "Successful export..."

 

Public bug reported:

I'm doing a lot of thermo and calculus homework in Lyx.  Lyx sometimes
gets into a state where it silently refuses to generate PDFs, with no
meaningful error message.

I can sometimes generate the PDF by opening a new document, pasting
contents, and generating immediately.  If that new document is saved and
re-opened, the error happens again.

I'll upload a progress log demonstrating the error separately.
