[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1896 bytes --]

All,

I am using Mactex Texlive 2008 on a Macbook pro.

I did this:

sudo ctxtools --updatecontext

After reading http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV, I tried:

sudo rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/context/ 
current/ /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/
sudo rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/current/bin/luatex/ 
osx-universal/bin/luatex /usr/local/texlive/2008/bin/
Then I try:
david-arnolds-macbook-pro:~ darnold$ sudo luatools --generate
And I get:
sudo: luatools: command not found
Then I tried:
david-arnolds-macbook-pro:~ darnold$ luatools --generate
The result was:
-bash: /usr/texbin/luatools: Permission denied
Trying the context command yields the same result:
david-arnolds-macbook-pro:~ darnold$ context --make
Result:
-bash: /usr/texbin/context: Permission denied
So, there is some sort of permissions problem.

We looked at this:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ cd /usr/texbin
david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ ls -l lua*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel        6 May 13 17:46 lualatex -> luatex
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  8009384 Aug 13  2008 luatex
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       49 May 13 17:46 luatools -> ../../ 
texmf-dist/scripts/context/lua/luatools.lua

And tried:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ ls -l ../../texmf-dist/ 
scripts/context/lua/luatools.lua
-rw-r--r--  1 33  33  222585 Aug 14 01:50 ../../texmf-dist/scripts/ 
context/lua/luatools.lua

And see that this file is not executable, so we try:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ sudo chmod +x ../../texmf- 
dist/scripts/context/lua/luatools.lua

Now the following works.

david-arnolds-macbook-pro:texbin darnold$ luatools --generate

But this piecemeal approach to making things executable might go on  
and on. Can someone give a more universal cure? Is there an entire  
directory of scripts that need to be executable?

Thanks.

David

All,

After trying below, my context is now broken.

david-arnolds-macbook-pro:en darnold$ texexec --help
-bash: /usr/texbin/texexec: Permission denied

I need help.

You can try to install context minimals. They will not interfere with your 
mactex installation.

For installation instructions see
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals

and to configure mac specific editors

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/ConTeXt_Minimals/Mac_Installation

Aditya,

Thanks. You are always so helpful.

But I would really prefer to fix this and correct installation  
directions on pages like:

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV

I think I have maybe an owner and permissions problem as a result of  
these rsync commands:

david-arnolds-macbook-pro:context darnold$ ls -l

drwxr-xr-x  33 33  33  1122 Aug 19 08:13 lua

Do they need to be executable?

did you install the minimals using first-setup.sh ?

it should set the permissions right

Hans,

No. I have Mactex texlive 2008 installed and I used the rsync  
directions on:

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Running_Mark_IV

The result is I no longer have a functioning context installation.

I will try installing the minimals, but I'd really like to get my  
Mactex installation correct and the directions on the above page  
correct.

D.

you should install the minimals alongside (not combined) with mactex; 
the operate isolated and can be updated independently and used without 
interference (issue the setuptex script to switch to the minimals tree)

Hans,

My impression from reading installation directions for minimals is  
that when you open a shell, and if you have your .bash_profile  
configured, that setuptex will be sourced. That must set some sort of  
path while the current shell is active? Will that interfere with  
needing to suddenly latex a file?

AFAIK not if you issue latex from a different shell where setuptex  
hasn't been sourced.

As for your broken MacTeX installation, did you customize it in any  
way before you updated ConTeXt via rsync? If not then the easiest road  
back to a working MacTeX setup might be reinstalling the MacTeX  
package from scratch and then placing the Minimals alongside ...

Best wishes,
Oliver

yes, as latex is not in the minimals. however, normally you will then 
just use a separate shell

if you're running from an editor, and using mkiv, you can just run the 
context script (use the full path to it) and it will operate in the tree 
that it sits in
