Dear list members!

 is now open.

We will meet at our favourite place close to Prague for the 3rd time.
Come and join us to hear all the great news about new developments of
ConTeXt and LuaMetaTex, meet developers and friends from this list. Better
come in person, though registration for online participation for the small
fee is open, too.

Important dates:

   - *May 15th 2023,* beginning of registration
   - *July 31st, 2023,* deadline for early bird payment
   - *August 20th, 2023,* registration closes, ask for options after this
   deadline
   - *September 10th–16th, 2023,* 17th ConTEXt Meeting

Never been to the ConTeXt Meeting? Don't worry, the group of regular
participants is open and friendly, and you don't know what you are missing,
unless you come at least once. Different discounts
 are available.

See you in September!

Jano
on behalf of the ConTeXt Group Board

Re: [NTG-context] lmtx installation paths not working

[Jano Kula via ntg-context]

Hello list,

thank you all for your advices.

Aditya was right. There was some mess in PATH variable.
Lesson learned: start with explicit paths to executables.
Still where mtxrun (Windows) was pointing to the right one, which was
fooling me.

I've noticed the problem with antivirus SW during the first installation of
lmtx.
It wasn't the case this time, but one should be aware antivirus programs
don't trust mtxrun.exe.

Thank you once again,
Jano

Hello,

I didn't mention the platform: context-setup-win64.

Thank you,
Jano

[NTG-context] lmtx installation paths not working

[Jano Kula via ntg-context]

Hello list,

I cannot make fresh install of lmtx to work. The structure after unzipping:
C:\data\context\bin\beta
C:\data\context\bin\beta\bin
C:\data\context\bin\beta\tex
C:\data\context\bin\beta\tex\texmf
C:\data\context\bin\beta\tex\texmf-cache
C:\data\context\bin\beta\tex\texmf-context
etc.

First compilation of texfile is not working, so mtxrun --generate is the
friend.

C:\data>mtxrun --generate

These paths contain probably correct path (watch /beta):

resolvers   | resolving | variable 'SELFAUTOLOC' set to '
*C:/data/context/bin/beta/bin*'
resolvers   | resolving | variable 'SELFAUTODIR' set to '
*C:/data/context/bin/beta*'
resolvers   | resolving | variable 'SELFAUTOPARENT' set to '
*C:/data/context/bin*'
resolvers   | resolving | variable 'TEXMFCNF' set to ''
resolvers   | resolving | variable 'TEXMF' set to ''
resolvers   | resolving | variable 'TEXOS' set to 'beta'
resolvers   | resolving |

and the paths bellow have no */beta* from above, they are derived from
selfautoparent *C:/data/context/bin *(without /beta), so no surprise they
cannot be found.

resolvers   | resolving | using configuration specification
'home:texmf/web2c;selfautoparent:/texmf-local/web2c;selfautoparent:/texmf-context/web2c;selfautoparent:/texmf-dist/web2c;selfautoparent:/texmf/web2c'

resolvers   | resolving | no texmf paths are defined (using TEXMF)
resolvers   | resolving |
mtxrun  |
mtxrun  | elapsed lua time: 0.026 seconds

Do you have an idea how to fix problem?
I will be thankful for an advice, it is quite urgent (everything was
working yesterday).

Thank you,
Jano

I had to switch back to mkiv. It's on Hans' agenda, but with lots of
interferencies there will be no quick fix.

Coffee break at the meeting will be the right place to ask for the higher
priority.
