Does somebody know which patches still have to be applied to texexec to get it working?
in texexec.ini/rme set the engine switch to false
As mentioned before, that didn't help.
can you try todays alpha release?
I did, it does not work. Each 'texexec --pdf' run fails with:
Sorry, I can't find the format `cont-en.efmt'; will try `context.efmt'. I can't find the format file `context.efmt'!
No difference wether I set UseEnginePath to true or false in texexec.ini.
locate texmf.cnf and check
TEXFORMATS = .;$TEXMF/web2c/{$ENGINE,} MFBASES = .;$TEXFORMATS MPMEMS = .;$TEXFORMATS TEXPOOL = .;$TEXFORMATS MFPOOL = .;$TEXFORMATS MPPOOL = .;$TEXFORMATS
My line was TEXFORMATS = .;$TEXMF/web2c The problem is not that I can't make tex find the formats. I think it is because texexec tries to launch a command named 'metafun' which does not exists, as the following lines of ouput of a texexec run suggest: metapost : try-mpgraph format : metafun sh: metafun: not found
are you running old binaries?
I have: This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.10a-RC3-2.1 (Web2C 7.4.3) This is MetaPost, Version 0.641 (Web2C 7.4.3) TeXExec 5.3.1 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2005 ConTeXt ver: 2005.04.19 fmt: 2005.4.28 int: english mes: english As you mention it, now I see that texexec complains: systems : pdfTeX version 110 -> please update systems : eTeX version 201 -> too old (bugs) Can this really be the reason? I don't have administrative access to the tex system here, so that would mean difficulties. -- Eckhart
