Hi! I just upgraded ConTeXt minimals (from the status-of-update.lua file: ["info"]={ ["comment"]="this file contains the settings of the last 'mtxrun --script update ' run", ["count"]=3, ["date"]="2010-03-20 09:14:09", ["runtime"]=90.688, ["version"]=0.1, }, ) When I want to compile the file on which I am working, I get: C:\Programmes\ConTeXt\tex\texmf-mswin\bin\mtxrun.lua:2161: stack overflow So, I am stuck. What is the solution? Alain

The same happens to me, but only when I invoke "context.exe". It works fine with "context.cmd". (The same holds true for mtxrun.exe vs. mtxrun.cmd and probably others.) (Using recent minimals from the garden.) Best Regards, Andreas.

Same here; as I am using TeXworks, I redefined mtxrun to mtxrun.cmd and it worked! I did upgrade to see if the other problem was solved See the message from Aditya about "Re: [NTG-context] Unable to use example from Excursion" 19/03/2010 16:03 message id: (On Fri, 12 Mar 2010, Hans Hagen wrote:

The bug is still present in 2010.03.18. Here is a minimal example: \definetype[typeTEX][option=tex, style=type] \starttext \placefigure [top,bottom] [fig:something] {Do \type{\undefined} and \typeTEX{\undefined} work?} {} \stoptext which gives .../... Best regards, Alain

can you add a print in line 2161 and see what path is reported? function file.collapse_path(str) print(str) str = gsub(str,"\\","/") if find(str,"/") then ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
