I had recently updated miktex including the context.
After update the context fails to work. The kpsewhich
was old as suggested by Mr.Hans Hagen and replaced it
with new one provided by him. but still not working.

I am attaching error file as generated by DOS.

I am using miktex + win Edt in winXP.

does other miktex updaters also have same error. IF
not why in my update. I have already updated context
twice from the internet as of 17 jun 05 update. 

can any one point point out what is wrong?

hi all

I did use new texexec provided by hans. I did do
texexec --make en metapfun. but there is no
improvement. have missed any details. Can this .tmp
file generated by winedt after compilation of any file
will help. 

This .tmp file is talking about mpostbatchswitch.
nothing else. can this be of help to you. otherwise, I
will reinstall miktex completely a fresh



Thanks all.

hi all,

I have completely reinstalled the miktex. and changed
the miktex.ini file as follows as suggested by
Taco Hoekwater in the eariler mail.

trie_op_size=35111
   trie_size=250000

now it works alright. I have to only see whether
metafun works ok. in the eariler version all metafun
examples of metafun manual failed.

thanks Hans, willy, xiang for your help.
