Document compiling when compiling with macos and overleaf, but fails when compiling with linux based system












0















I am unable to compile a quiz document specifically only on linux machines. My code looks like:



%% Language and font encodings
usepackage[english]{babel}
usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

%% Sets page size and margins
usepackage[a4paper,margin=1cm]{geometry}

%% Useful packages
usepackage{amsmath}
usepackage{graphicx}
usepackage{paralist}
setlengthFrameSep{4pt}


begin{document}
vspace{5mm}
begin{center}
fbox{fbox{parbox{2in}{centering
Quiz 1}}}

vspace{5mm}

makebox[textwidth]{Name:enspacehrulefill}
vspace{5mm}
makebox[textwidth]{Section:enspacehrulefill}
%questions being here

begin{questions}
question[2]{Sample Question}
begin{framed}
begin{compactenum}[a.]
item option 1.
item Option 2.
item option 3.
item none of the above.
end{compactenum}
end{framed}
end{questions}
end{center}
end{document}




This code is compiling on mac systems as well as online services like overleaf, but fails on linux systems. The error file looks like

      I am unable to compile a quiz document specifically only on linux machines. My code looks like:



      %% Language and font encodings
      usepackage[english]{babel}

      usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

      %% Sets page size and margins
      usepackage[a4paper,margin=1cm]{geometry}

      %% Useful packages
      usepackage{amsmath}
      usepackage{graphicx}
      usepackage{paralist}
      setlengthFrameSep{4pt}


      begin{document}

      begin{center}
      fbox{fbox{parbox{2in}{centering
