When I try to install ConTeXt with install.sh (Linux 64 bit), the following happens: lua error : function call: /home/coragyps/lmtx/bin/mtxrun.lua:299: bad argument #2 to 'popen' (invalid mode) cp: no se puede efectuar `stat' sobre '/home/coragyps/lmtx/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun': No existe el archivo o el directorio cp: no se puede efectuar `stat' sobre '/home/coragyps/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtxrun.lua': No existe el archivo o el directorio cp: no se puede efectuar `stat' sobre '/home/coragyps/lmtx/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-install.lua': No existe el archivo o el directorio Messages in Spanish say the directory or file doesn't exist. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance Jairo

Dear Aditya and Hans, Thank you for your suggestion.

There may be something I missed or there is something uncertain between \dorecurse and \startanimation. Thank you. Best regards, Dalyoung
