Hi all, Yesterday I issued: ctxtools --updatecontext and everything seemed as usual. But when trying to compile a standard file, I get: ... ConTeXt ver: 2007.08.20 22:17 MKII fmt: 2007.8.21 int: english/english
language : language en is active system : cont-new loaded (/usr/local/texlive/2007/../texmf-local/tex/context/base/cont-new.tex
FatalError : Your format does not match the base files!
FormatVersion : 2007.08.20 22:17 MKII FilesVersion : 2007.08.27 09:11 ...
and it fails. I tried to go to all the steps described in the wiki (for texlive install), no joy :-(
Try kpsewhich cont-en.fmt or locate cont-en.fmt (after running updatedb) It should point you to [something]/we2c/pdftex/cont-en.fmt Remove all the .fmt files inside that folder ([something]/we2c/*/*.fmt): well, at least cont-en, you may leave the latex format files untouched if any. Then run texexec --make --all and try again. Mojca
