LuaTeX issues

LuaTeX issues

[Pascal de Bruijn]

Hi,

I'm having issues executing ConTeXt with LuaTeX:

$ texexec --luatex lulu
TeXExec | processing document 'lulu'
TeXExec | no ctx file found
TeXExec | tex processing method: context
TeXExec | TeX run 1
TeXExec | writing option file lulu.top
TeXExec | using randomseed 141
TeXExec | tex engine: luatex
TeXExec | tex format: cont-en
TeXExec | runtime: 0.063962

This is all the output I get. And it fails to generate a .pdf.

Regards,
Pascal de Bruijn

My guess is that you have not properly installed "luatools". Try

   $ texexec --verbose --luatex lulu

to see what it says then.

Best wishes,
Taco

I have unpacked the cont-tmf.zip file. This happens when I add verbose:

$ texexec --verbose --luatex lulu

You are missing a number of vital parts and actions. Please read and
execute the installation instructions in this document:

Good luck,
Taco

Basically, you need to generate the formats.

run

luatools --generate

and

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

I noticed similar problem (texexec --lua fails without any useful 
message) when I tried to install context on a new machine. I simply 
downloaded context standalone installation, unzipped it, and ran 
texexec --lua file. With pdftex this used to work because the formats 
were located in the texmf tree. However, AFAIU, mkiv wants the 
standards to be in the TEXMFCACHE directory (which is mapped to the 
TEMP directory). So, simply getting the zip files from pragma does not 
work. You also need to generate the formats.
