Well, remote sensing with computers is cumbersome and as I haven't got a clue what happens on your machine I'd rather see your the shell script. How is this script intended to be called: as a subshell from the prompt, as a cron job in the background, ...? I've got Ubunto and OSX here and could try to reproduce the error for you, if you post your script. A shell script with just these 4 lines #!/bin/bash cd $HOME/context/tests export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/applic/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin context --batchmode test.tex works as expected on Ubunto 2.6.32-24-server x86_64 with an almost empty environment (none of the TEX* variables set). You just have to set the path to context - nothing else is necessary. As for the environment variables set: you can test for that in the script via 'env' and redirect the output to a file.

Did you by any chance set the variable TEXMF in your environment? I
guess not, but in my case both TEMF and TEXMFCNF are empty. In your
case they are both set wrong. What else do you have in C:\ConTeXt\
besides "bin", "tex", "first-setup.bat" and "status-of-update.lua"?

you can make your own construct, maybe something with a background

Hello,
I use textbackgrounds to set-off paragraphs,
for example, here as secondary material.
It does not float and, indeed, may flow over many pages.
This is a concrete example (to which you could add line numbering):
\definetextbackground [secondary]
[location=paragraph,
background=color,backgroundscreen=middlegray,
leftoffset=0.5cm,rightoffset=0.5cm,
topoffset=.25ex,bottomoffset=.25ex,
before={\blank[small]\switchtobodyfont[script]},
after={\blank[small]},
frame=off]

% color bleeds over footnotes and floats external to the

\startsecondary
Here is some less interesting detailed stuff that can be skipped
if you wish…
\stopsecondary

Thanks, this is pretty nice. I'm going to use something like that inside
an "algorithm enumeration", so I get the number I can reference to. This
is better than the floating-approach, I think.
Thanks for the ideas,

Hraban, Have you tried attaching to the stalled processes using strace (Linux) or dtruss (Mac)? This will tell you what system call is blocking, might give a clue. The defunct uname process in your original post suggests to me the parent did not calling wait() on the child (uname) and it exited.

Wishlist: add interaction to \seeindex
Explaination:
\seeindex{index_entry}{see_entry}
can be used to add entry to an index
that refers one to another entry.
Example: \seeindex{DNA}{deoxyribonucleic acid}
With \setupinteraction [state=start]
one gets active hyperlinks on the page numbers
of the index entries.
It would be nice if \seeindex entries to
the index would create an interaction hyperlink
to the corresponding real index entry.
This is pretty straight-forward, but probably
non-trivial to implement, as there is no guarantee
that the second entry of \seeindex indeed exists.
Of course, \seeindex could create this entry,
but it may not have an associated page number
or page numbers if \index{deoxyribonucleic acid}
was never called.
I can have a look at it ... as all data lives at the lua end it's easy
to identify the tobeseen word but it would take some extra housekeeping
to keep track of where that word ends up in the index (so that word
actually becomes a reference) ... it's rather easy to implement, but
less easy not to mess up the code to the level that 10 years from now no
one understands why it's there
(I should also port the linked index entries in interactive documents: a
linked list of hyperlinks that steps you through the 20 pages that
discuss deoxyribonucleic acid.)
Even more sophisticated, but the bookkeeping on this
might get a bit complicated, \index{DNA} could
create an index entry under {deoxyribonucleic acid}
as \seeindex instructs to "hijack" this label.
(currently, it will put "see DNA" followed by a page number.)

Hello,
I use textbackgrounds to set-off paragraphs,
for example, here as secondary material.
It does not float and, indeed, may flow over many pages.
This is a concrete example (to which you could add line numbering):
\definetextbackground [secondary]
[location=paragraph,
background=color,backgroundscreen=middlegray,
leftoffset=0.5cm,rightoffset=0.5cm,
topoffset=.25ex,bottomoffset=.25ex,
before={\blank[small]\switchtobodyfont[script]},
after={\blank[small]},
frame=off]
\kindofpagetextareas3 % fix from Hans
% Indeed, there are several internal methods available
% for managing text areas. Without this fix, the background
% color bleeds over footnotes and floats external to the
% secondary material.
\startsecondary
Here is some less interesting detailed stuff that can be skipped
if you wish…
\stopsecondary

I.e. it looks like texlua calls uname in a way that lets the process
hang forever.
If I call the same from an active shell everything runs fine. Also
uname alone works in the shell command.
Any ideas what I could/should check?
I don't think it could be the PATH, since ConTeXt's bin as well as
all the system tools are in:

The user that runs the server process (incl. sub-shell and ConTeXt)
owns all the TeX files and the directory.
Maybe it's a Python problem, here's my call:
subprocess.Popen(cmd.encode('utf-8'), shell=True, stderr=logfile,
stdout=logfile)
But I can call several other commands in this way without problems.
The whole thing (incl. ConTeXt) works on my Mac (OSX 10.5.8) at home.
Everything I call before ConTeXt shows up in the logfile.
I tried to call mtxrun directly and replaced the calls to uname -m
with their return value (x86_64).
Now the texlua process itself hangs, even if not "defunct" it doesn't
do anything:
