I am trying to use the module bib, but I only get [[error 2]] displayed.
I see the same result from "context bibtest".
I was just trying the bib support with a fresh "minimals".  At some
point, I read that the bib module is no longer needed, so I tried
without the \usemodule lines and got the same result.  Then I replaced
the \completepublications and get something better, but ref. [1] is
blank:
%orig: \usemodule[bib]
%orig: \usemodule[bibltx]
\setupbibtex[database=sample]
\setuppublications[numbering=yes] % Show reference numbers in the
generated list.
\starttext
As \cite[hh2010b] already indicated, bibtex is a \LaTeX-centric program.
\placepublications[criterium=all]
%orig:\completepublications
\stoptext
Thank you very much for this hint. I am getting the same result as you.
Everything works but the listing of all entries.

I copied the file `sample.bib`
@STRING{hh = {Hans Hagen}}
@ELECTRONIC{hh2010,
         author = hh,
         year = {2010},
         title = {Metafun. \CONTEXT\ mkiv},
         url = {http://www.pragma-ade.nl/general/manuals/metafun-s.pdf},
       }
I am guessing that `@ELECTRONIC` is the problem.

@ARTICLE{hh2010a,
         author = hh,
         title = {The Font Name Mess},
         journal = {MAPS},
         year = {2010},
         volume = {40},
         pages = {2-8},
         keywords = {context},
       }
@ARTICLE{hh2010b,
         author = hh,
         title = {Grouping in Hybrid Environments},
         journal = {MAPS},
         year = {2010},
         volume = {40},
         pages = {67-71},
         keywords = {context},
       }
@BOOK{Eijkhout1991,
         title = {\TeX\ by Topic. A \TeX nician's Reference},
         publisher = {Addison-Wesley},
         year = {1991},
         author = {Victor Eijkhout},
         address = {London},
         keywords = {general},
       }
from the bib module to the directory.

If everything is solved I will add a note to the Wiki page stating that
in the current ConTeXt version no module is needed and add a link to the
mailing list thread.

Thanks,

Paul
