I've already checked #83 and #105 and #12. Like in #12 I see vim-latex-live-preview loaded in :scripts, unlike in the issue I don't see a +python feature, although in vim :checkhealth I do see it is compiled with python3 support, and running :python3 import ... like is done in the .vim script everything works. I don't know what else to try.

I'm facing the same issue

[Rafmaninoff]

I just had to deal with this very issue, the solution was to actually ensure texlive was properly installed in the system.

[FrenzyExists]

I'm also having the same issue. I installed texlive-most and for some reason it won't work. I can however use pandoc (which requires latex to be installed for the conversion) without any issue

Btw I'm using neovim nightly version if that helps

[jakec-dev]

Same issue here.

texlive is installed correctly and :script shows that the plugin is loading correctly in vim. I'm not having issues with any other vim plugins either.

I'm on Arch Linux, have texlive-most installed through the Arch repo, have ensured all my packages are up to date, am using vim version 8.2, and have tried installing the plugin both through vim-plug and manually (exact same issue occurs with both methods). I'm not sure what else to try.

For neovim, if :echo has('python3') || has('python') outputs 0, you have to install the python-pynvim package. As noted on the Arch wiki.

Did anyone happen to solve this? I'm using arch linux, vimplug, vim 8.2, same issue

@stainlesspot
Thank you so much. I'v had the same issue but now it just works.

[xuhdev]

Since this is resolved, I'm closing this now.

[xuhdev]

OK don't see the OP hasn't resolved this yet. You must have +python or +python3 feature to use this plugin. #116 (comment) might be useful. Let me if it works. Thanks.

[nzetsu]

so i had the same issue as OP.
I'm using vim 8.1 on debian 10 buster and i had to reinstall it and chose a +python3 ready to use version of vim. vim-gtk3 did it.
And then i had the failed to compile issue. After a round 2 of other issues reading, i noticed, that my hello world doc did not have \documentclass, so to say the problem was not on the pluging side, although i had -python and +python3. See the pictures...
So there are two issues, the second is not from the plugin.
