Subject: finding cont-en.fmt

Message-ID: <e4277a763a4387684165bce07582a4fe@princeton.edu> (raw)
I just updated to the latest versions of teTeX and ConTeXt via Gerben’s
i-installer and now, when I run a file through ConTeXt, I get the
following report:
________________________________
TeXExec 5.3.2 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005
fixing texformat path :
.:{/Users/acbowen/Library/texmf,!!/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local,!!

This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4)
(/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c/natural.tcx)
kpathsea: Running mktexfmt cont-en.fmt
fmtutil: format directory `/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c' is
not writable.
Sorry, I can't find the format `cont-en.fmt'; will try `context.fmt'.
kpathsea: Running mktexfmt context.fmt
fmtutil: format directory `/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/web2c' is
not writable.
I can't find the format file `context.fmt'!
return code : 256
run time : 3 seconds
total run time : 4 seconds
___________________________________
According to the installer log, both cont-en.fmt and context.fmt were
installed. I checked the list archive and see that two others had this
problem about a month ago, but could not find any subsequent solutions.
So, I would be most grateful for any pointers now.
Cheers, Alan
