context/luatex on amd64

context/luatex on amd64

[zs]

Hi,

have you working installation of latest context and luatex on
linux/amd64? Drop some info please.

I have no problem with installation on 32bit machine. The same system
(gentoo) on 64bit doesn't generate "cont-en.fmt".
Lua and luatex are installed from source.

Zdenek

In the meantime, you could just replace the executable with the i586
version:
http://foundry.supelec.fr/frs/download.php/513/luatex-beta-0.10.2-linux-i586.tar.bz2

Cheers, Peter

  contextgarden.net runs on AMD64. It always has the latest version of
ConTeXt, and a recent luatex (beta-0.11.0 as I speak). Everything is
compiled from source.

  The garden uses Debian. And file tells me the luatex binary is
actually 32-bit, although I wonder how this can be possible.

  What is your error message exactly?

Problem is on 64bit gentoo. On a 32bit (at home) it works.

Commands

luatools --ini --compile --verbose cont-en

and

texmfstart texexec --make --all --luatex

do not produce error message at all.


But

texmfstart texexec --luatex something.tex

ends with:

This is luaTeX, Version 3.141592-beta-0.11.0-2007082309 (Web2C 7.5.6)
luatex: /tmp/luatex-cache/context/2bee42bddafb2afd5c3c1eaea23baaa5/formats/cont-en.fmt:

--lua="/tmp/luatex-cache/context/2bee42bddafb2afd5c3c1eaea23baaa5/formats/cont-en.luc"
"something.tex"

I've tried precompiled binaries. They either do not run at all or behave identically.

You mean, format generation does not work with i586 binary neither?

Strange, then it seems that you encounter another problem than the
"luatex Segmentation fault" mentioned 3 weeks ago here on this list...

No problem here (also linux-amd64) with default installation from
http://pmrb.free.fr/texlive/ and replacement of luatex binary afterwards.

Cheers, Peter

  This does not indicate that all the format files have been compiled.
Are there where luatools looks for them?
(/tmp/luatex-cache/context/2bee42bddafb2afd5c3c1eaea23baaa5/formats/cont-en.fmt)
If not, can you send the exact output of texexec --luatex --make --all (maybe by
private mail)? If yes, this is extremely weird.

There was a bug in the binary that crashed the executable depending on
the memory load location, so it is no sutprise that different machines
gave different results. The current SVN trunk should have a fixed the
problem.

Best wishes,
Taco
