Hi Taco, Thanks for the quick response. I unset TEXMF, TEXMFMAIN and did `luatools --generate'. I also throw context/bin out of my PATH. First thing I notice: I can run context again (without parameters) But with test.tex, it still does not work: Burak-Emirs-MacBook-Pro:/tmp/testlua.a buraq$ context test.tex MtxRun | loading configuration for /usr/local/context/tex/texmf/web2c from /Users/buraq/luatex-cache/context/f70b0d481875d119766efabfbdb61af7/trees/01ff2a12d1aaf66ed1ecab879ab73b31 MtxRun | error MtxRun | total runtime: 0.011 output of 'env MTX_INPUT_TRACE=3 context test.tex': ? tex locator not found: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-project ? tex locator not found: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-fonts ? tex locator not found: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-local ! tex locator found: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context = hash append: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context ? tex locator not found: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-extra ! tex locator found: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf = hash append: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf ! using suffix based filetype: %s | lua ? blobpath asked: %s | context.lua ? blobpath do: %s (%s) | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context ? blobpath do: %s (%s) | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf ? filename: %s | context.lua - readable: %s | ./context.lua - readable: %s | ./context.lua - readable: %s | ./context.lua - readable: %s | ./context.lua ! using suffix based filetype: %s | lua ? blobpath asked: %s | mtx-context.lua ? blobpath do: %s (%s) | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context ? blobpath do: %s (%s) | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf ? filename: %s | mtx-context.lua - readable: %s | ./mtx-context.lua - readable: %s | ./mtx-context.lua - readable: %s | ./mtx-context.lua - readable: %s | ./mtx-context.lua = found in hash: %s | /usr/local/context/tex/texmf-context/scripts/context/lua/mtx-context.lua MtxRun | loading configuration for /usr/local/context/tex/texmf/web2c from /Users/buraq/luatex-cache/context/f70b0d481875d119766efabfbdb61af7/trees/01ff2a12d1aaf66ed1ecab879ab73b31 MtxRun | error MtxRun | total runtime: 0.010 Any idea what is going on?
