Re: [NTG-context] Gerben's TeX+ConTeXt packages: can't find the format `cont-nl.fmt' ?

Hi Steffen.
This is more of a MacOSX installer problem, but...

in the past I could use Gerben's TeX and ConTeXt distributions for Mac without manual changes.
Last night I downloaded the "2004 stable" and Context-updater. If I now typeset a ConTeXt file as usual (texexec --pdf foo.tex) I get the following error:
Okay, I don't have a great grasp of all the possible errors here (because I update manually), but take a look back at your i-Installer logs. Were there any errors?
You didn't comment on whether or not your interface should or shouldn't be in dutch (interface : nl).
Were *any* formats made? Do this in the terminal: ls -l /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c/cont-*.fmt
I don't know enough about your setup to reach a verdict, so I'd say re- run the config stage in the i-Installer for ConTeXt first, and watch the diagnostic information there more carefully.

I re-run it and have still the same result. What's strange to me is that in both texexec.ini (tetex and local) the default interface language is set to en. Is there another file containing this information? Anyway, as I couldn't solve the miracle I moved to avoiding it: by using texexec --pdf --interface=en This works. Steffen
Hey. Maybe the ConTeXt updater assumes the TeX-live 2005 layout. I am using 2005 and I have no problems with it. Just a thought, Boris. On Mon, 24 Jan 2005, Steffen Wolfrum wrote:
