[OS X TeX] Texlive error

["M. Tamer Özsu"]

Yes, there are log files. First, I should have shown a bit more of the error that texlive showed. A bit above what I had posted earlier there is this:

Regarding log files: it says look in log files in /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-var/web2c, where there are many. It says transcript written on pdfxmltex.log, but that file has not been written since November 7 (I installed it yesterday on the 18th) and there doesn't seem anything that looks problematic in it (at least to my eye). I also checked pdftex.log file and similarly, there wasn't an error message in it. Of course I might be missing them.
