Error in TeXstudio with unicode-data package
I am writing how I have resolved my issue as a separate answer.
The package was not in my local package repository, after "Changing Package Repository" in MiKTeX Package Manager to the internet based repository, the package did appear in the listing and installing through MiKTeX Package Manager solved the problem.
Some details: MiKTeX Package Manager was configured to use a local repository on my PC, which I downloaded with the installation of TeXstudio, the unicode-data
package was not in my local package repository, this never happened before with any other package, and the error didn't clearly reflect what was the problem.
All I have seen is that the package was not listed in the MiKTeX Package Manager, so I had tried to installed it manually, there seemed to be no issues with the manual installation, but apparently the installation didn't go through. After "Changing Package Repository" in MiKTeX Package Manager to the internet based repository, the package did appear in the listing and installing it solved the problem.

I am struggling with this error:
Unfortunately, the package unicode-data could not be installed. Please check the log file: C:/Users/G/AppData/Local/MiKTeX/2.9/miktex/log/pdflatex.log
Error: Command crashed: pdflatex.exe -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode "icml_paper".tex
The MiKTeX Package Manager tries to install a package but fails, otherwise the compilation goes through and I can see the resulting PDF document, which looks fine.
This happens every time I am compiling a ".tex" file with
asymptote
drawing in the document. But it seems as though it is not directly related toasymptote
(since compilingasymptote
drawing by runningasym
, works fine).I get the following log message in
pdflatex.log

I tried to install the package
unicode-data
from the CTAN site, this didn't solve the problem.Any help or suggestions would be very much welcome.
RESOLVED: The problem was that the package was just not in my local package repository (never happened before). In fact, the package was not listed in the MiKTeX Package Manager, so I had installed it manually, which didn't help (I might not have installed it properly after all) after "Changing Package Repository" in MiKTeX Package Manager to the internet based repository, the package did appear in the listing and installing it solved the problem.

them almost 7 yearsFor some reason (which might be very much related to the error) I can not find unicode-data package in MiXTeX package manager (there is, however, package called unicode-math). The package does appear in the link ftp.math.purdue.edu/mirrors/ctan.org/systems/win32/miktex/tm/…, so I have installed it manually, is there a way to point MiXTeX Pkg. Manager to this link?

Bernard almost 7 yearsI have it. Synchronize the contents of the repositories (menu
Repository -> Synchronize
in MPM 'Admin), then install. -
