Basically, you need to generate the formats.
run
luatools --generate
and
luatools --ini --compile --verbose cont-en
I noticed similar problem (texexec --lua fails without any useful
message) when I tried to install context on a new machine. I simply
downloaded context standalone installation, unzipped it, and ran
texexec --lua file. With pdftex this used to work because the formats
were located in the texmf tree. However, AFAIU, mkiv wants the
standards to be in the TEXMFCACHE directory (which is mapped to the
TEMP directory). So, simply getting the zip files from pragma does not
work. You also need to generate the formats.
