I've been running into trouble in both the alpha and beta versions of Mark IV when trying to work with the fonts script:
$ mtxrun --script fonts --list MTXrun | font table: accessing the data table failed MTXrun | font table: accessing the data table failed ...text/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/font-syn.lua:333: attempt to index field 'data' (a nil value)
Also, using the "reload" option does nothing (it prints a blank line and immediately exits). Without the fonts script I can't install or use any custom fonts.
I'm experiencing the same problem here.

LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.39.0-2009042009 luatex.web >= v2329
None of my custom fonts work; I get errors

I had the same problem with LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.39.0-2009041623, ConTeXt ver: 2009.04.18 13:47 MKIV and mtxrun Version 1.20 after a new installation. After copying the files name.tma and names.tmc from my old installation directory to tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/..../fonts/data/ it worked again. Regards, Drazen
