I am looking in cont-tmf.zip and I see that there no longer is a /context/perltk. Unfortunately, the installation directions minstall.pdf in cont-tmf.zip says there is. Indeed, see pages 2 and 5, where it says to put \miktex\context\perltk on your path. Looks like the installation directions haven't caught up with the release. I'm going to try deleting the original context tree, unzipping again, then putting /miktex/scripts/context/perl on the path and I'll report what happens.

From: Matt Gushee @ 2004-06-21 8:28 UTC (permalink / raw)
Hello, all--
I have just installed the latest (stable release of) ConTeXt on a "new"
machine [details below], but texexec is not working properly. I keep
getting the following error:
sh: cont-en: command not found
I have Googled for information on this problem, but the solution I found
doesn't make sense to me. In response to a previous inquiry on this
list, someone wrote:
> but the absence of cont-en that is the
> problem. Or if cont-en exists, it is not in your path or not
> executable.
But what exactly is this 'cont-en'? I have two machines with working
ConTeXt systems, and neither of them has a command with exactly that
name. So I imagine the reference is to a file named
'cont-en.<extension>'. But there is more than one such file, and none of
them seems to be a type of file that would normally be made executable
(nor are they executable on the machines where I have ConTeXt working).
Any thoughts as to what's wrong?
Oh, yes, my system is:
Debian GNU/Linux 3.0
teTeX 1.0.2
* Note that teTeX comes with an old and not-properly-configured
version of ConTeXt. I unzipped the new package over that ...
could something left over from the old ConTeXt be causing the
problem?
Thanks for any info.

I unzipped the new package over that ... oh, bad thing ;-) remove the ConTeXt stuff from there (not really necessary) and install ConTeXt somewhere else.

Just as a side note, why would the shell think the format is supposed to be a command? That makes me wonder if there is some incorrect quoting in the Perl script.

Well, I've deleted all the old ConTeXt directories, reinstalled the new version, copied the *.rme files to *.ini (or whatever they are supposed to be ... I think), regenerated the 'en', 'nl', and 'metafun' formats, and run texhash ... I'm still getting the same error. I also ran a diff comparing the texmf.cnf from the new installation with one from one of my working installation. The files are identical in everything related to ConTeXt. So, thank you both for your quick replies, but it looks like there's some other problem. BTW, this is a very new release of ConTeXt--June 16, according to the Pragma Web site.

I also tried creating /usr/bin/cont-en as a symlink to pdfetex and pdftex (not at the same time, of course). The results were, well, different: First, with cont-en as a link to pdftex: | matt@crawdad:/var/tmp$ texexec ut.tex | | TeXExec 4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004 | | executable : pdfetex | format : cont-en | inputfile : ut | output : standard | interface : en | current mode : none | TeX run : 1 | | This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20011114-ojmw (Web2C 7.3.7) | I can't find the format file `cont-en.fmt'! | | return code : 256 | run time : 1 seconds | | total run time : 4 seconds Can't find 'cont-en.fmt'? Well, that makes sense, doesn't it? Since, as I understand it, ConTeXt normally uses pdfetex, which would need cont-en.efmt. But it was worth a try. So then I tried pdfetex: | matt@crawdad:/var/tmp$ texexec ut.tex | | TeXExec 4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004 | | executable : pdfetex | format : cont-en | inputfile : ut | output : standard | interface : en | current mode : none | TeX run : 1 | | This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20011114-ojmw-2.1 (Web2C 7.3.7) | This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20011114-ojmw-2.1 (Web2C 7.3.7) | (/usr/share/texmf/web2c/natural.tcx) | ** | !

Is that referring to natural.tcx (which comes from the ConTeXt distribution)? And what about pdftex.cfg? Indeed, it doesn't exist. But it doesn't exist on the machines where I have ConTeXt working, either. So I don't know if either of the above results are meaningful. Oh, by the way, the input file was this: \usetypescriptfile [type-utopia] \usetypescript [UtopiaFace] \showbodyfont [Utopia] \end And yes, the typescript in question is available; both it and this test file have worked for me on another machine. -- Matt Gushee When a nation follows the Way, Englewood, Colorado, USA Horses bear manure through mgushee@havenrock.com its fields; http://www.havenrock.com/ When a nation ignores the Way, Horses bear soldiers through its streets. --Lao Tzu (Peter Merel, trans.) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread
