Hi,

 

I wanted to test my earlier example (float placement) also with MKIV, but

context ---luatex .

give me this error message :

unknown script 'mtx-context.lua' or 'mtx-mtx-context.lua

 

How can I make it work?

 

Best,

Denis

Hi Denis,

as far as I know, this is required first:

  context --luatex --generate

BTW, although LuaTeX 1.18 has been released, my Linux64 ConTeXt contains
version 1.17.x.

In fact, the LuaTeX binary was removed in an update some weeks (or
months) ago. I had to copy it from a backup from a previous version.

I hope it helps,

Pablo

Thanks, Pablo. 
I've tried it, but it doesn't seem to work...

I'm getting this:

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mtxrun          | the resolver databases are not present or outdated

And again:

mtxrun          | unknown script 'mtx-context.lua' or 'mtx-mtx-context.lua'

Any ideas?

Best,
Denis

I get the same result on Win64 when I move the luatex binary from the
tex/texmf-win64/bin/ directory.

This may sound stupid, but could you check whether the bin directory
contain the required binary?

Sorry, "luatex --version" and even "whereis luatex" should give the same
result (but on Windows, it seems to be https://ss64.com/nt/where.html).

I hope it may help,

Pablo

Ok. It wasn't there. I have now copied it from my Miktex installation, but
it still does not work. (Looks like some path issue. The luatex binary from
the miktex installation seems to take priority over the one now in the
ConTeXt installation. Looks like I'm getting somewhere...)

Thanks for your help,
Denis

I wonder whether the path order might give priority.

But in any case, I wonder whether it is intended that current latest
(from the ConTeXt distribution) is intended neither to have the latest
LuaTeX nor to have any LuaTeX binary at all.

Hans (or Luigi), are we (just humble users) missing something here?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

it searches for mtxrun.lua and contextl.lua in the same path so you need:

luametatex.exe
mtxrun.exe (can be link to luametatex.exe)
context.exe (can be link to luametatex.exe)
context.lua
mtxrun.lua

all in the same (bib) path

... always has been so ...

But now it seems that luatex has disappeared from our bin directories.

Was this intended (because of the issues with the build farm)?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

Hi Denis,

I made a similar solution for docker image [minidocks/context](https://hub.docker.com/r/minidocks/context):
[https://github.com/minidocks/context/commit/9b3ccc1eb62e556cada29b5b761207a526bca52e](https://github.com/minidocks/context/commit/9b3ccc1eb62e556cada29b5b761207a526bca52e).

You can get inspired. Everything works as it should:

```
$ docker run --rm -it minidocks/context --luatex --version  
resolvers       | globbing | confusing filename, name: 'CHANGELOG.md', lower: 'changelog.md', already: 'ChangeLog.md'  
mtx-context     | redirect luametatex -> luatex: luatex --luaonly --socket "/usr/share/tex/texmf/bin/mtxrun.lua" --script mtx-context --luatex --version --redirected  
resolvers       | globbing | confusing filename, name: 'CHANGELOG.md', lower: 'changelog.md', already: 'ChangeLog.md'  
mtx-context     | ConTeXt Process Management 1.06  
mtx-context     |  
mtx-context     | main context file: /usr/share/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkiv/context.mkiv  
mtx-context     | current version: 2024.04.01 08:59  
mtx-context     | main context file: /usr/share/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/mkxl/context.mkxl  
mtx-context     | current version: 2024.04.01 08:59
```

Best,

Martin Hasoň
