Pdflatex .exe The Memory Dump File Could Not Be Found
Never

Pdflatex.exe: the memory dump file could not be found. I've already tried suggestions from other forums, like making sure there are no spaces in the path to MikTeX (i.e. Not putting it in Program Files), but they don't solve the problem. This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.3-1.40.12 (MiKTeX 2.9 64-bit) pdflatex: The memory dump file could not be found. Using Notepad, I then added the following two lines to the top of the IraAppliedStats.md file.title: IraAppliedStats.md output: pdfdocument.

  1. This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.5-1.40.14 (MiKTeX 2.9) pdflatex: The memory dump file could not be found. Pdflatex: Data: pdflatex.fmt Warning message: running command 'pandoc -s TextMining.html -o TextMining.pdf' had status 43 I can't seem to be able to resolve this issue.
  2. This list would show 6 options – None, Small memory dump(64 KB), Kernel memory dump, Complete memory dump, Automatic memory dump and Active memory dump. If you want to disable memory dump then select none from these options. Otherwise select your required option from the other three. After this click on OK and close the windows.
