There is a test.tex at the bottom of this e-mail: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=580447#5
Copy paste it into the ConTeXt Live interface at the ConTeXt Garden. Result is blank.

Could you please let me know where things are going wrong? The mail has the log files attached.
You have a problem with metapost not being run. Search the contextgarden for write18 for the solution.
BTW: You cannot use the contextgarden to check if you code is working. The same restrictions as on your system apply. Consider using mkiv as Hans suggested.
Indeed, this was the solution. I added metafun to shell_escape_commands, and that did the trick! Thanks! Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah
