This is what I did:
sh ./first-setup.sh --context=2016.1.4 --all . ~/Context/tex/setuptex Setting "/home/rmason/Context/tex" as ConTeXt root.
cd to the directory containing my document, then
context document.tex

Dear Roger Mason, I also had a similar problem recently after installing texlive 2017. But it is resolved now by doing the following according to the suggestions: run mtxrun —generate and luatools —generate May be, “ luatools —generate" is OK. I am using TeXshop in OS X. So I am not sure this works in Linux system. I hope that it may help. Good luck! Best regards, Dalyoung

Hi Dalyoung,
Jeong Dal
I also had a similar problem recently after installing texlive 2017. But it is resolved now by doing the following according to the suggestions:
run mtxrun —generate and luatools —generate
May be, “ luatools —generate" is OK. I am using TeXshop in OS X. So I am not sure this works in Linux system. I hope that it may help.
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it did not work: luatools -generate resolvers | trees | analyzing 'home:texmf' resolvers | globbing | confusing filename, name: 'README.txt', lower: 'readme.txt', already: 'ReadMe.txt' mtxrun | unknown script 'base.lua' or 'mtx-base.lua' But never mind, I can work round the issue that caused the need for the old binaries. Cheers, Roger

luatools -generate
Note that this should be luatools --generate (two hyphens, which got changed to an endash in the previous email). Aditya

Hi Aditya,
Aditya Mahajan
Note that this should be luatools --generate (two hyphens, which got changed to an endash in the previous email).
Unfortunately 'luatools --generate' produces the same error. I have worked round the problem that sparked my original post, so, with thanks to all who offered help, I think we should leave this mystery for posterity. Best wishes, Roger
