Minimals installation problem OS X 10.6.2
Hi, On a new Snow Leopard machine, I ran ./first-setup.sh in ~/context. As instructed at the end of the ./first-setup.sh run, I then added /Users/pm/context/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin to my .zshenv, and % echo $PATH shows correct path when I source, logout, restart, etc. I ran: p% texexec example.tex MTXrun | kpse fallback with progname 'context' initialized in 0.001019 seconds I then tried p% luatex sample.tex This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.50.0-2009122423 \write18 enabled. kpathsea: Running mktexfmt luatex.fmt mktexfmt: No such file or directory I can't find the format file `luatex.fmt'! Any suggestions on what I should do? Also, first-setup.sh creates the dir ...tex/texmf-osx-64/bin, but, p% uname -m i386 Thank you very much for any help you can offer.

Minimals doesn't ship with plain format, only context. If you want ConTeXt MkIV then run 'context file.tex' (which can process plain tex files as well, but I don't know how far compatible is it). -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer

Thank-you, still no luck: p% context test.tex MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'

AFAIK, you actually need to add source /Users/pm/context/tex/setuptex to your .zshrc file rather than adding the path. (The path might also work, but I have never tried it. I use "source setuptex" in my setup.)

You may also try luatools --generate before running context. Aditya

Thank you Aditya, this was the necessary step, ConTeXt working. Paul
