My tex installation tree looks like: d:\tex\texmf\... and d:\tex\localtexmf\... When I run texexec --verbose I get: TeXExec 2.5 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2001 locating ini file : kpsewhich not found in path locating ini file : found by searching reading : .\texexec.ini setting : 'TeXShell' to 'miktex' for 'all' setting : 'UsedInterfaces' to 'en nl de uk' for 'all' setting : 'UserInterface' to 'en' for 'all' setting : 'TeXExecutable' to 'tex' for 'all' setting : 'MpExecutable' to 'mpost' for 'all' setting : 'MpToTeXExecutable' to 'mpto' for 'all' setting : 'DviToMpExecutable' to 'dvitomp' for 'all' setting : 'DviSpecialScript' to 'dvispec' for 'all' setting : 'MpFormat' to 'metafun' for 'all' setting : 'TeXFormatFlag' to '&' for 'all' setting : 'MpFormatFlag' to '&' for 'all' setting : 'TeXFontsPath' to 'd:/tex/texmf;d:/tex/localtexmf;' for 'all' setting : 'TeXFormatPath' to 'd:/tex/localtexmf/miktex/fmt' for 'all' setting : 'ConTeXtPath' to 'd:/tex/texmf/tex/context/base' for 'all' setting : 'SetupPath' to 'd:/tex/texmf/tex/context/user' for 'all' setting : 'TexScriptsPath' to 'd:/tex/texmf/context/perltk' for 'all' setting : 'TeXExecutable' to 'pdfetex' for 'miktex' setting : 'TeXVirginFlag' to '--initialize' for 'miktex' setting : 'TeXBatchFlag' to '--interaction=batchmode' for 'miktex' setting : 'MpToTeXExecutable' to 'mptotex' for 'miktex' setting : 'MpVirginFlag' to '--initialize' for 'miktex' setting : 'MpPassString' to '' for 'miktex' setting : 'MpBatchFlag' to '--interaction=batchmode' for 'miktex' setting : 'TeXFormatFlag' to '--undump=' for 'miktex' setting : 'MpFormatFlag' to '--undump=' for 'miktex' used setting : TeXShell = miktex used setting : SetupPath = d:/tex/texmf/tex/context/user used setting : UserInterface = en used setting : UsedInterfaces = en nl de uk used setting : TeXFontsPath = d:/tex/texmf;d:/tex/localtexmf; used setting : MpExecutable = mpost used setting : MpToTeXExecutable = mptotex used setting : DviToMpExecutable = dvitomp used setting : TeXProgramPath = used setting : TeXFormatPath = d:/tex/localtexmf/miktex/fmt used setting : ConTeXtPath = d:/tex/texmf/tex/context/base used setting : TeXScriptsPath = used setting : TeXExecutable = pdfetex used setting : TeXVirginFlag = --initialize used setting : TeXBatchFlag = --interaction=batchmode used setting : MpBatchFlag = --interaction=batchmode used setting : TeXPassString = used setting : TeXFormatFlag = --undump= used setting : MpFormatFlag = --undump= used setting : MpVirginFlag = --initialize used setting : MpPassString = used setting : MpFormat = metafun used setting : FmtLanguage = used setting : FmtBodyFont = used setting : FmtResponse = used setting : TcXPath = If I try to run texexec test.tex I get the error message I mentioned in my previous mail. If test.tex contains: \starttext \framed{Is it working?} \stoptext the only file I get has extension .tmp and it looks like: \unprotect \setupsystem[\c!gebied={d:/tex/texmf/tex/context/user/}] \protect Just in case I am running ActiveState Perl 5.6.1.628, Miktex 2.0 in Windows NT 4.00.1381 SP6, 512 Mb RAM and plenty of HD space.
