LaTeX Error: File ‘…’ not found

TeX Output

./example.tex:2: LaTeX Error: File `nonexistent_file_xyz.tex' not found.
l.2 \input{nonexistent_file_xyz.tex}

Explanation

An \input{...}, \include{...}, or \usepackage{...} command requested a file that could not be located on the TeX search path (TEXINPUTS or local directory).

How to Fix

  1. Verify the exact spelling and file extension of the target file.
  2. Check relative paths (e.g. \input{chapters/intro} instead of \input{intro}).
  3. If referencing a package (.sty file), ensure the package is installed via TeX Live (tlmgr install <pkg>) or place the .sty in the project root or styles directory.
