unable to make format after upgrade

unable to make format after upgrade

[zs]

Hi all,

I tried to update my installation using svn version of luatex and context from:
http://mirror.contextgarden.net/context/beta/cont-tmf.zip


Running "texexec --make --all --luatex" gives me this error message:

LuaTools | running command: luatex --ini --lua="cont-en.luc" "/opt/context/tex/texmf-local/tex/context/base/cont-en.tex" \\dump

l.167 \registerctxluafile{luat-env}{1.001}



Pdftex and xetex formats are generated without any trouble.

Could you give me a hint?

Thanks

ZS

this looks like the beta from 04.03.2008. you need the latest luatex 
binaries (0.22.1) for it to run.

look at

	http://minimals.contextgarden.net/pragma

for the latest binaries

...i can only tell about my own experience with it.

i often forget to update the copies of mtxrun.lua and luatools.lua in 
the bin directory (win). donno how this is on other os.

also sometimes (happend two times) the only solution was to delete the 
luatex cache and rebuild it from scratch.

hope that helps,

peter

I'm not 100% sure if that's the problem, but often
   luatools --selfupdate
(in other words: a new version of luatools in BIN) helps.

I (just now) had the exact same error when I tried to do a fresh
install of one of the new minimals (linux-64), so it looks like
that is out of sync too.

Best wishes,
Taco

There is a little problem that will probably have to be solved by
installation script.

bin/context has stubs & luatools from current version of ConTeXt, and
I suspect tha the "current" version is too old to handle the latest
luaTeX binary (am I wrong)?

I now changed the scripts to take luatools from context beta, but I
suspect that this will cause problems with the current ConTeXt then
(does current work with the latest beta?). Or ... maybe a "luatools
--selfupdate" at the end.

Concerning the luatex on linux-64: Peter Münster has sent me a version
of LuaTeX that might be too recent (he has compiled it from trunk). If
needed, you or him need(s) to send me the latest beta.

I also get this (for some reason?):

LuaTools | running command: luatex --ini --lua="cont-en.luc"
"/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/cont-en.tex" \\dump
(/context/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/cont-en.tex
! I can't find file `context.tex'.
l.16 \input context.tex

I remeber seing the same problem on windows some time ago.

ah, that can be the case indeed; a bit hard to avoid in a moving target

it would explain why I had no problems before: my normal setup is
usually a bit ahead of the beta's, even. It was just today that I
needed a new install to hunt down a strange luatex compilation bug.

Best wishes,
Taco

I've just updated the svn repository for linux-64:
- experimental: pre-0.23.0 snapshot
- current: 0.22.1
