OK, I tried several things to fix the error "Undefined control
sequence. <argument> \c!gebied," but it persists. I wiped out my entire
texmf.local tree and started from scratch because I thought the
c!gebied was residing in some older file that ha dnot been overwritten.
But even starting from scratch wouldn't amend the situation; after
regenerating the format, I get the same error. However, grepping for
"c!gebied" in the newly created tree gives only this result:
grep -r 'c!gebied' ./*
./tex/context/base/cont-sys.ori:% \setupexternalfigures
[\c!gebied={e:/fig/eps,t:/mine/figs}]
./tex/context/user/cont-sys.rme:% \setupexternalfigures
[\c!gebied={e:/fig/eps,t:/mine/figs}]
So this shouldn't be the problem since these two lines in cont-sys.rme
are commented out. Does anybody have an idea where the error is coming
from? There must be some old config file re-introducing it into the
format file, but I can't seem to find it.
Baffled

I had the same problem.
There where two texexec.pl, one in perltk (the old place)
and one in scripts/context/perl
In the new texexec.pl the command is \c!directory.
The Solution was to delete the perlscripts in the directory
perltk.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, that's not the problem here:
since I deleted the entire tree, there is no second texexec.pl in
web2c/context/perltk (which is where the scripts used to reside). In
your case, the problem went away after deleting the old scripts?
Interesting, and mysterious.
Best

ah .. indeed, you need the texexec that matches the format!
this is one of the changes in the new tds: scripts are now under
tex/texmf.../scripts;
one way to deal with such changes from now on, is to use texmfstart, i.e.:
texexec.bat ==
@echo off
texmfstart texexec.pl %*
texmfstart will always be adapted to the latest changes in tds etc and
tries to be downward compatible

strange, can you send me the log file?
