Good day
Disclaimer: I am a beginner, and I apologise upfront if there is a
simple answer to this question that I should have known.
Today I tried to compile an existing .tex file, and I received the
following error message:
/tex error on line 6 in file /Users/jjc/wrk/ctx/brx-test.pdf: ! String
contains an invalid utf-8 sequence/
It's been about 3 weeks since I last experimented with ConTeXt. I am
running on MacOS High Sierra 10.13.6, and I have not had an OS update
since I last ran ConTeXt.
I tried the following:
1) I tried to compile another file, which previously compiled
successfully, and I had the same problem.
2) I then created a very simple .tex file (\starttext Hello World
\stoptext ), and again I had the same problem.
3) I checked the format of my .tex file in 2 different editors to ensure
that it is utf-8. (I normally use MacVim and it is clearly displaying
the file format as utf-8 at the bottom of the editor)
4) I updated my ConTeXt installation, restarted my Mac and tried again.
The only difference was that some of the output stream was displayed
after the error message.
5) I checked the log file for my simple file, but could not find any
information to help me. The log file looks as follows:

Not that I really know what is wrong, but your context is trying to typeset a pdf document,
instead of a tex source.

your actions in the end are resolved in calling
context /Users/jjc/wrk/ctx/brx-test.pdf
instead of (presumably)
context /Users/jjc/wrk/ctx/brx-test.tex

I am beyond embarrassed. After 2 (unnecessary) re-installs, it turns out
I had just confused 2 separate commands in my VIM editor.
Thank you for answering so quickly and not treating me like the idiot I was.
