Hey,
I have one document under ~/my_files/test.tex and want to include in test.tex some styling informations, which can be found under ~/latex/styles/info_hypersetup.tex.
When I include the following statement into my test.tex:
%% setting the infos for the pdf
\include{home/helex/latex/styles/info_hypersetup.tex}
I get the following error when running pdflatex test.test:
! I can't write on file `~/latex/styles/info_hypersetup.tex.aux'.
I set the rights to 777 but this doesn't changed anything. It works, if I put info_hypersetup.tex in the directory-structure where test.tex is. But I want to use this styleinformation as a global setting for all my documents and don't want to copy it into every project.
Thanks for your help.
