about "error unable to identify cnf file"

[Dalyoung Jeong]

Hi,

Recently, I tried to set for LuaTeX following the "Running_Mark_IV" in  
wiki.

1. I updated ConTeXt using "ctxtools --update".
      I didn't use "rsync -av ..." as in wiki for updating because I  
got "cannot find command texexec" error after updating ConTeXt.

2. Updated LuaTeX using "rsync -av ......../universal-darwin/"

These updating processes are fine. But I got the following error when  
I issued "luatools --generate".


LuaTools | error unable to identify cnf file
LuaTools | error unable to identify cnf file
LuaTools | no cnf files found (TEXMFCNF may not be set/known)
LuaTools |
LuaTools | runtime: 0.002 seconds

I installed TL2008.
The first question is that do I need to do some pre-process for the  
installation of LuaTeX like following?

export TeXMFCNF ...
export TEXMF ...
...

So I run "source .luatex" where luatex is a file to setup TEXMF stuffs  
when I use TL2007.  After that "luatools --generate" is working well.

But I got another error when I try "context --make".
The error message is "cannot find file context.tex".


What did I do wrong in these steps?

Thank you.

Best regards,

Dal

luatools --selfupdate
mtxrun --selfupdate

Hi,

If I remember well, you are running Mac OS X: if this is still the  
case, please have a look to the file which I have uploaded for you at:
http://www.kavian.fr/tex/install-minimal-ok.pdf

The source file is thre too:
http://www.kavian.fr/tex/install-minimal-ok.tex

I have gathered my experience installing mkiv from the Minimals and up  
to now everything works smoothly on my machine.
The "old" method running "ctxtools --update" does not work anymore, at  
least it didn't for me…

Best regards: OK
