Text wrapping/figures in latex

Can anyone tell me how i can wrap text around my figure in latex? Im trying to use the \usepackage{wrapfig} but it objects when i put this in. any idea why? any other suggestions?
thanks

 

im using windows and everything else seems to work except subfig.
I cant interpret the errors. It doesnt give any as such. It just doesnt run and says 0 pages 0 errors etc whereas its fine before i put it in and after i take it out
thanks

 

Are you just looking at the messages in the console window? The .log file might have more information.

As D.H. said, if we can't see either your input (for a small example that doesn't work) or your output, this is just a guessing game.

 

There are no errors apart from:

"GUI framwork cannot be initalised"

it just stops running. I didnt think that would help.
It stops at the \usepackage on the line above and then says that error. Then it says something about bibtex that it always says and then it says no pages and no errors

 

is this what you mean:

Couldnt find input index file (path directory) nor (pathdirectory).idx
Usage: C:\program Files (x86)\miktex\miktex\bin\makeindex.exe [-ilqrcgLT] [-s sty] [-o ind] [-t log] [-p num] [idx0 idx1 ...]

is this it?

 

infact. that comes up even when it does work. I have read through it all. there is no error message. it just doesnt run.... and the entire log file is copy and pasted above

 

I just checked my MikTeX installation on Windows, and the only place the that contains the string "GUI fram" is the MikTeX program itself.

I don't think this has anything to do with the wrapfig package. More likely you are trying to use a previewer or something and it doesn't like what is in your document.

This works OK for me. If it doesn't work for you, the problem must be with your TeX installation not with the package.

Code (Text):

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{wrapfig}
\begin{document}
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

\begin{wrapfigure}{l}{0pt}
\begin{minipage}{100pt}
this is the text that is wrapped around
this is the text that is wrapped around
\end{minipage}
\end{wrapfigure}
paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph
paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph
paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph
paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph
paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph
paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph
paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph
paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph paragraph

\end{document}
 

 

I have problems with wrapping text about figure. As you can see from the attached image, the line above is formatted quite strangely. Is there any way to solve this braking of line?

my code of wrapping figure:
\begin{wrapfigure}{r}{0.5\textwidth}
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[width=0.4\textwidth]{blabla}
\end{center}
\caption{blabla }
\label{fig:pirmas}
\end{wrapfigure}
