For what it's worth, I get the same error with Mathematica 3.01.1 running under Win95. Strangely, if I specify the base E in the Log function, I don't get this error message, but an incorrect answer. Integrate[E^x/Log[x, E], x] Out[12]= -ExpIntegralEi[x] + E^x Log[x] Differentiating this with respect to x yields E^x Log[x], which the wrong sign (the correct answer appears if you use Integrate[E^x/Log[x,-E],x]!!!) This was an unmodified 'fresh' kernel session, so I'm also perplexed as to why this is occuring. A.
