Dear list,
I have downloaded the ConTeXt Suite (beta from 2015.04.14 18:48)for
Win32 and Win64 in my Linux box using:
sh ./first-setup.sh --platform=windows --modules=all
sh ./first-setup.sh --platform=win64 --modules=all
But when I try to run them, I experience the following issues:
With the Win32 version, mtxrunjit is found by Windows 7, but contextjit
cannot be found. The binary is in its proper path.
Withe the Win64 version, contextjit is found, but mtxrunjit cannot be
found. In this case, I need to run "mtxrunjit --generate" first, because
invoking contextjit gives the following error:
mtxrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'
Why are some binaries found by Windows and others not?
Many thanks for your help,
Pabl

don't use a 32/64 mix ... the startup scripts use dll's and look on the
path and some consistency is assumed in that lookup

Sorry, Hans, I haven’t explained myself accurately.
In a Win64 computer, I have tested each version (32bit and 64bit)
separately. And I got the results you have above.
I don’t know what is wrong here.

i think you need the 64 on windows 64 ... we identify the platform and
bitness and set some paths accordingly (texmf-* paths)

Many thanks for your reply, Hans.
What I discovered is that --platform=windows lacks the contextjit
executable. Is this intended?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
