[NTG-context] module installer: unknown script 'install-modules.lua' or 'mtx-install-modules.lua'

[NTG-context] module installer: unknown script 'install-modules.lua' or 'mtx-install-modules.lua'

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 609 bytes --]

Hi,

I'm setting up a new computer, and I've wanted to benefit from the new module installer. However, the commands I should use gives me the following error message :

mtxrun --script install-modules --list

mtxrun | unknown script 'install-modules.lua' or 'mtx-install-modules.lua'

I'm using a fresh context installation (2023.05.08 17:39) on Windows. I've see a couple of others had/have( ?) the same issue. It does not matter from where I run the command (i.e., I'm getting the same error message also from inside context\tex)

Is there anything I should do to make this work?

Best,
Denis

While --install only works within the "tex" directory, --list should 
work regardless of current directory.

Can mtxrun find other scripts, like "fonts"?

After a new installation, I usually need a new terminal window, 
otherwise the PATH is wrong or something like that.

Re: [NTG-context] module installer: unknown script 'install-modules.lua' or 'mtx-install-modules.lua'

[Denis Maier via ntg-context]

I've just tested with a couple of other scripts...

Doesn't matter which one I try to call:
Mtxrun --script XYZ

will always results in the equivalent error message, e.g.:
mtxrun          | unknown script 'interface.lua' or 'mtx-interface.lua'

I have 
..\context\tex\texmf-win64\bin
..\context\bin
In my path.

Do I need to add something else to the Path?

Best,
Denis

I would remove context/bin from the PATH.

Try running mtxrun --generate to regenerate the files database.

Thanks - that was it. Apparently, it used the executable in the wrong path. Just out of interest, why do we have mtxrun in both locations?

Best,
Denis

one is used by the installer, the other can then be updated and when ok 
will replace the one used for the installer; idem for binaries
