Here is some info: ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [i386-mswin32] \texmf-context\scripts\context\ruby>texmfstart texexec ruby: no such file to load -- ubygems (LoadError) I ran the above in the directory with the scripts. Is there a setup or ini file where I need to change the path? I compared my old setuptex.bat with the new one. No real clues yet. \texmf-context\scripts\context\ruby is in the PATH, rebooted Any ideas? What has changed since the last mswincontext, other that the switch from -local/ to -context/?
