A remark: A few lines above the error triggering point, I found a single digit presented as math: \math{5}. Removing this and leaving the 5 in text mode removes the error below it. Could it be a bug in the distribution? El dom, 25 feb 2024 a las 15:24, Andres Conrado Montoya (< andresconrado@gmail.com>) escribió:
I keep bumping into this error, I have no idea what may be causing it, in a statistics book with lots of math:
registered function call [250]: ...mtx/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/lxml-mms.lmt:749: attempt to index a nil value (local 'a2')
I have checked everything. I have tried commenting out many things and the weird part is that it fails in a simple math expression: \math{E_{i}j}. Even a simple $y$ or \math{a+b} will trigger the error. However, this same file Im working on has many formulas before that, those work fine. I changed all the $...$ to \math{...} just in case, but with no success.
Already tried remaking, regenerating, updating the distribution.
Do you have any ideas to work this out? I don't know how to provide a MWE for this because it's a very big project (statistics book).
I have tried 2 versions, the system-wide one, just upgraded: mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.06 mtx-context | current version: 2024.02.22 18:31
And a less recent version, attached to the project: mtx-context | ConTeXt Process Management 1.05 mtx-context | current version: 2024.02.14 13:38
Any help will be much appreciated.
