This is BAD. You definately do not want to set TEXMF to that one directory, and do not need either of the variables at all.

If it is not, you should post the output of $ env MTX_INPUT_TRACE=3 context test.tex for debugging purposes.

Hi Taco,

Thanks for the quick response. I unset TEXMF, TEXMFMAIN and did `luatools --generate'. I also throw context/bin out of my PATH.

First thing I notice: I can run context again (without parameters) But with test.tex, it still does not work:

No, there are two files, both with extensions. The human readable one is actually called "01ff2a12d1aaf66ed1ecab879ab73b31.tma", so that's not it.

It appears 'mtxrun' is unwilling to run the 'context' script (it found it alright, it is

/usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua

so the discovery of the script itself is now ok.

ok this is confusing, when i type context by hand, it does not work anymore (?!)

Perhaps the formats are still missing (I am guessing sometimes because I do not have a clear overview of what first-setup.sh does/doesnt do). Can you try if

$ context --make --compile cont-en

Burak-Emirs-MacBook-Pro:/tmp/testlua.a buraq$ context --make --compile cont-en MtxRun | unknown script: context

runs?

Otherwise, maybe it can't find the "luatex" executable (which would be really odd, but who knows ...). Does

$ luatex --version

work?

Finally, I find it odd that it only "sees" the texmf-context subtree, but that could be a feature of the new minimals. can you see what

So ctxdata is not there ('a nil value')... if you look at line 563, you see (this line is not indented like the others): 563 ctxdata.flags.inputfile = filename -- is this right Two observations: * I think the answer to the comment is "no" :-D * just a bit further up, lines 526-531, there is code that explicitly asks whether ctxdata is there... 526 if ctxdata then 527 -- todo: interface 528 for k,v in pairs(ctxdata.flags) do 529 environment.setargument(k,v) 530 end 531 end I don't know lua, but it seems that ctxdata being absent is possible, and the problem could be fixed by account for the case that ctxdata is not set... what do you think?

ah, i was unaware of that bug being in the formal beta

Hello, I get exactly the same error, but to Burak - before you give up with installation, you can use texexec --lua test.tex That one should work. Also, if it would have been critical, there's always a chance to run first-setup.sh --context=current or first-setup.sh --context=YYYY.MM.DD to revert to an older stable distribution. Mojca
