I am stuggling with getting ConTeXt to run from inside a php script
under Apache. First off, let me say that the installation works fine
from the command line as a logged in user.
Initially, I tried to do it inline:
cmd = ". /opt/context/tex/setuptex /opt/context/tex/setuptex; cd $spool_dir; context $full_input_filename";
system($cmd);
which returns exit status 2, "Incorrect usage".
Then I created a small bash script with the following lines:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
. /opt/context/tex/setuptex /opt/context/tex
context $1
When I trap the output, I get the following error in the log file:
resolvers | caches | fatal error: there is no valid writable cache path defined
I also attempted this manually at a bash prompt resulting in the same
error:
sudo -u www-data bash -c bin/proccontext.sh $FILENAME
What would be the correct design pattern to invoke ConTeXt from a web
application? This is all under Ubuntu 14.04, BTW.
