Fatal crash with LuaTeX if an encoding file is missing
Hi I have experienced a fatal crash with LuaTeX if an encoding file is missing: I am using debug versions (built with --nostrip) Reproducible in This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.53.0-2010032719 This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.60.0-2010040417 --- both are debug versions compiled from source All you need to do is rename the encoding file to something different mentioned in pdftex.map and the crash is reproducible every time. [1{c:/msys/1.0/trunk/build/texk/fonts/map/pdftex.map}] ) (see the transcript file for additional information) !LuaTeX error: cannot find encoding file for reading ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced! Please let me know anything else I can do which will help track this down. I have GNU's gdb installed and would be happy to do whatever I can to help. Also, if this is not the right way to report bugs/issues do please let me know and I'll follow the correct procedures. Best wishes Graham

A sample file, with clear steps to reproduce the issue would be the first step to help others track this down. Regards, Khaled -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer

This is not a crash, it simply a fatal error. Best wishes, Taco
<<snip>> Hi Taco I sent you a screenshot showing how Windows Vista responded with a "Program Stopped Working" dialog box. I just wondered if this was indicating a more serious error and thought it was worth raising. Cheers Graham
