Installation Problem

[Neal Lester <neal@3dsafety.com>]

I am trying to verify my installation.

When I try to run texexec against the test file given in the
installation instructions I don't get a dvi or pdf file.  The output is:

TeXExec 5.4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005

fixing texformat path : .:{!!/home/neal/.texmf-config,!!/home/neal/.texmf-var,/home/neal/texmf,!!/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-config,!!/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-var,!!/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf,!!/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-local,!!/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf-dist}/web2c/{$engine,}
fixing engine variable : pdfetex
total run time : 0 seconds
warning : use 'texmfstart texexec' instead

I have set the value for TeXFormatPath in texexec.ini but still get the fixing texformat path message.

The contents of cont-en.log are:

If you really absolutely need more capacity,
you can ask a wizard to enlarge me.
