cont-en.efmt is a format file that ConTeXt need to run. In order for this file to be built, run texexec --make en de nl This will create English, Dutch, and German formats (see minstall.pdf, p. 6-8). Depending on where and how you installed, you'll need to run it as root. All best Thomas On Jun 21, 2004, at 10:28 AM, Matt Gushee wrote:
Hello, all--
I have just installed the latest (stable release of) ConTeXt on a "new" machine [details below], but texexec is not working properly. I keep getting the following error:
sh: cont-en: command not found
I have Googled for information on this problem, but the solution I found doesn't make sense to me. In response to a previous inquiry on this list, someone wrote:
but the absence of cont-en that is the problem. Or if cont-en exists, it is not in your path or not executable.
But what exactly is this 'cont-en'? I have two machines with working ConTeXt systems, and neither of them has a command with exactly that name. So I imagine the reference is to a file named 'cont-en.<extension>'. But there is more than one such file, and none of them seems to be a type of file that would normally be made executable (nor are they executable on the machines where I have ConTeXt working). Any thoughts as to what's wrong?
Oh, yes, my system is:
Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 teTeX 1.0.2 * Note that teTeX comes with an old and not-properly-configured version of ConTeXt. I unzipped the new package over that ... could something left over from the old ConTeXt be causing the problem?
Thanks for any info.
