After updating my livetex distribution from 2008 to 2011 on my OSX machine, i lost the metapost images in my context document. I also tried the live.contextgarden.net but that does not provide any image either ... \starttext \startMPcode draw fullcircle scaled 3cm; \stopMPcode \stoptext Any hints ? Thanks! Floris
From the mactex list i get the suggestion to use the MKIV engine for typesetting ConTeXt. When i switch the engine in Texshop i get a complain: mtxrun | forcing cache reload resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/share/texmf-local/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/share/texmf/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/texmf-local/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/texmf/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/share/texmf-local/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/share/texmf/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texmf-local/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texmf/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/share/texmf-local/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/share/texmf/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/texmf-local/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texlive/texmf/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/share/texmf-local/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/share/texmf/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texmf-local/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | unknown configuration file '/opt/local/libexec/texmf/web2c/texmfcnf.lua' resolvers | resolving | resolvers | resolving | warning: no lua configuration files found resolvers | resolving | no texmf paths are defined (using TEXMF) resolvers | resolving | mtxrun | the resolver databases are not present or outdated resolvers | resolving | using suffix based filetype 'lua' resolvers | resolving | using suffix based filetype 'lua' resolvers | resolving | remembered file 'mtx-context.lua' resolvers | resolving | using suffix based filetype 'lua' mtxrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua' Any hints as how to solve this ?

Hi Floris, The most intriguing message is the first in the lines hereunder. This indicates, that there is no database on which context MKIV depends. The key to solve this is in running 'context --generate' (database), followed by 'context --make' (formats) from a terminal. - But there might be yet another hurdle, I do not know whether the TeXlive installer exports the required variables. So first in the terminal you might try echo $TEXROOT, which should return a path. Kind regards Willi On 16 Nov 2011, at 09:02, Floris van Manen wrote:

What would be the full command line on OSX Lion ? e.g. where do (database) and (formats) stand for ?

the echo $TEXROOT is empty .F

context --generate then context --make

This is very bad in the sense, that a terminal does not have the required environmental variables set. - Here my knowledge ends, due to the fact that I do not use TeXlive. I exclusively use the ConTeXt suite a.k.a. the minimals. May be the TeXlive installer provides an option to run the above mentioned commands? May be that Mojca knows more about this? Kind regards Willi

W. After installing the standalone context version, i managed to link the texshop to that installation and things are drawing again. Maybe i can remove the livetex2011 now as i'm using context + metapost only ... Thanks! .F On 16 Nov 2011, at 16:43, Willi Egger wrote:
