    Does http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/270490/how-to-use-auctex-in-macos-el-capitan help? – egreg Oct 03 '15 at 14:41
  • @egreg the OP doesn't seem to be using Emacs, how's the solution there relevant? – yo' Oct 04 '15 at 17:22
  • @yo' The general problem is the same, but maybe we need a better go-to question here, as this issue is currently quite actively sought-after. Plus the OP's self-answer does suggest use of Emacs quite heavily. – moewe Oct 04 '15 at 17:27
  • Please refer also to https://www.tug.org/mactex/elcapitan.html and the links therein. – moewe Oct 04 '15 at 17:28

I have solved the problem by changing the PATH in my .emacs file. The PATH should be like this

(setenv "PATH" (concat "/usr/texbin:/Library/TeX/texbin:" (getenv "PATH")))
(setq exec-path (append '("/usr/texbin" "/Library/TeX/texbin") exec-path)

so just all what you have to do is paste these two lines in your .emacs file and comment out the old two lines
