I've been trying to connect ConTeXt to sqlite for almost a week but I have repeatedly failed. Neither the "internal" variant according to the documentation, nor the attempt on luasql have worked. Above all, the Google request showed me that not alone with this problem - how reassuring. ;-)

At the moment, concentrate I am accessing via swiglib and think my problem lies here (from my log file):

Obviously, the appropriate modules are not found, but where Can I get them and where do they belong? And maybe also someone a working code example for me. I'm working with Texlive 2017 on XUBUNTU 16.04.

hm I will look into asap.

The relevant docs are

tex/texmf-context/doc/context/documents/general/manuals/swiglib-mkiv.pdf tex/texmf-context/doc/context/documents/general/manuals/sql-mkiv.pdf The old svn site is gone , the new one is https://serveur-svn.lri.fr/svn/modhel/swiglib (see http://www.luatex.org/download.html) -- luigi

Many thanks for your help. I have read both manuals but may not understand it correctly. That's why I send my file and the log file.
