Dear gang,
I am upgrading my system to the latest mswincontext distro.
After some hiccups, context.cmd finds its target script, so I can generate the mkiv format
But for
texmfstart.exe texexec
I keep getting
ruby: no such file to load -- ubygems (LoadError)
hm, some rubygems interaction; i really dislike these 'package managers overloading the module loaders'
texmfstart --locate texexec.rb
gives me
/texmf-context/scripts/context/ruby/texexec.rb
Any ideas on what's wrong?
some messy ruby in your path
you can make a small bat file that starts texmfstart
@echo off setlocal ruby c:\pathtoscript\texmfstart.rb %* endlocal
might work
or (what i have here) just add scripts/context/ruby to your PATH variable and associate .rb with ruby
Still no luck. Here is some info: ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-mswin32] \texmf-context\scripts\context\ruby>texmfstart texexec ruby: no such file to load -- ubygems (LoadError) I ran the above in the directory with the scripts. Is there a setup or ini file where I need to change the path? I compared my old setuptex.bat with the new one. No real clues yet. \texmf-context\scripts\context\ruby is in the PATH, rebooted Any ideas? What has changed since the last mswincontext, other that the switch from -local/ to -context/?
