Hi,

I've been running into trouble in both the alpha and beta versions of 
Mark IV when trying to work with the fonts script:

$ mtxrun --script fonts --list
MTXrun | font table: accessing the data table failed
MTXrun | font table: accessing the data table failed
...text/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/font-syn.lua:333: attempt to 
index field 'data' (a nil value)

Also, using the "reload" option does nothing (it prints a blank line and 
immediately exits). Without the fonts script I can't install or use any 
custom fonts.

It's a fresh installation. I tried deleting the ConTeXt installation and 
reinstalling both the alpha and beta versions with the first-setup.sh 
script.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Patrick

Yes, you're right; if I copy these two files over, I don't get these  
errors, and my fonts work again. Which probably means that the latest  
beta fails to generate the font database...

Thanks

I had the same problem with LuaTeX, Version snapshot-0.39.0-2009041623, ConTeXt
ver: 2009.04.18 13:47 MKIV and mtxrun Version 1.20 after a new installation.

After copying the files name.tma and names.tmc from my old
installation directory to
tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/..../fonts/data/ it worked again.

Regards,
Drazen
