mtxrun can’t find the scripts
Hello, I still can't run mtxrun --scripts fonts --mtxrun --reload the output give me : MtxRun | unknown script: fonts I tried with my context installation in /usr/share/texmf and with context minimal. Digging in my directories, I supose that thoses scripts are the mtx-* in $LOCALTEX/scripts/context/lua I can't run any of them (assuming that the syntax is mtxrun --scripts {the name of the script without the « mtx- » prefix and « .lua » sufix}). I tried do chmod +x them… nothing I haven't see problems in the install process… (exept that I must run, ctxtools --update and texexec --make --all --{pdf,xe,lu}tex being root, but my user don't have write rights on these directories, so…) Any idear ?

you could also try "mtxrun --selfupdate" before you update the database Wolfgang
Thank's I find the problem reading to another post. I had a TEXMF variable set to /usr/share/texmf I unset it and it seems that mtxrun go well. But strange isn't it ? Olivier.

the problem can be that some distributions have hard coded paths and use autofoo and autoparentfoo magic context mkiv ha sit sown file searching (kpse compatible) and it needs to know where to start looking which is why it needs TEXMFCNF and/or TEXMF and/or TEXMFCACHE Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
