Hi,
I'm trying to get ConTeXt to run on my Windows machine (Windows 7 SP1).
I already had MiKTeX installed on the machine.
Here is what I did:
1. I downloaded context-setup-mswin.zip.
2. I unzipped and copied the folder to C:/context
3. I ran the command
first-setup.bat --context=current --modules=all
4. I added C:\context\tex\texmf-win64\bin to my PATH variable
5. I opened up the example file at
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Hello_world in TeXWorks
6. I selected ConTeXt(LuaTeX)
7. I compiled the file
The compilation failed. The log says:
mtx-context | warning: synctex is enabled
mtx-context | run 1: luatex
--fmt="C:/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en"
--jobname="HelloWorld"
--lua="C:/context/tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache/context/5fe67e0bfe781ce0dde776fb1556f32e/formats/luatex/cont-en.lui"
--no-parse-first-line --synctex=1 --c:currentrun=1
--c:fulljobname="./HelloWorld.tex" --c:input="./HelloWorld.tex"
--c:kindofrun=1 --c:maxnofruns=8 --c:synctex "cont-yes.mkiv"
This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.76.0-2013062820 (rev 4627)
\write18 enabled.
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)
mtx-context | fatal error: return code: 1
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you,
Johan Råde
