So I cd-ed to /usr/texbin, gave the command “sudo chmod 755 luatools” and then “luatools --generate” and got:
Hello Robert,
I wrote those instructions a long while ago, working on Tiger and having a whole lot of TeX binaries lying around, most probably I also did "chown myname" to the whole TeX tree before performing any operation described there.
Can you please try if the following four operations (be careful - these are single lines that will probably break in mail) work OK for you?
sudo chown -R root:wheel /usr/local/texlive/2008" sudo chmod +x /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/scripts/context/lua/*.lua sudo chmod +x /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/scripts/context/ruby/*.rb sudo chmod +x /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/scripts/context/stubs/unix/*
