[tex-k] teTeX on Solaris 8 - tex.pool doesn't match; tangle me again (or fix the path)

[Bernd Rehling]

Dear Ulf,

using Solaris 8 and trying an new teTeX-version.
I'm running in similar problems you did in September.

Found your adress in the mailing list - sorry to bother
you!

Did you fix your teTeX ? If you did, I would apprechiate
a hint how you did, it might help me a lot.


My teTeX looks like:

This looks fine:
  mymachine{root} texconfig conf
  ==================== binaries found by searching $PATH ===================
  tex:    /usr/local/teTeX/bin/tex
  etex:   /usr/local/teTeX/bin/etex
  pdftex: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/pdftex
  omega:  /usr/local/teTeX/bin/omega
  mf:     /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mf
  mpost:  /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mpost
  dialog: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/dialog
  dvips:  /usr/local/teTeX/bin/dvips
  xdvi:   /usr/local/teTeX/bin/xdvi
  kpsewhich:      /usr/local/teTeX/bin/kpsewhich
  mktexpk:        /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mktexpk
  mktextfm:       /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mktextfm

=========================== Kpathsea variables ===========================
  TEXMF=/opt/local/share/texmf

  =============== environment variables (ok if no output here) =============


And this looks fine:
  mymachine{root} texconfig confall
  ==================== binaries found by searching $PATH ===================
  tex:    /usr/local/teTeX/bin/tex
  etex:   /usr/local/teTeX/bin/etex
  pdftex: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/pdftex
  omega:  /usr/local/teTeX/bin/omega
  mf:     /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mf
  mpost:  /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mpost
  dialog: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/dialog
  dvips:  /usr/local/teTeX/bin/dvips
  xdvi:   /usr/local/teTeX/bin/xdvi
  kpsewhich:      /usr/local/teTeX/bin/kpsewhich
  mktexpk:        /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mktexpk
  mktextfm:       /usr/local/teTeX/bin/mktextfm

  =========================== Kpathsea variables ===========================
  TEXMF=/opt/local/share/texmf

  =============== environment variables (ok if no output here) =============

and this goes bad:
  mymachine{root} texconfig init

  ! tex.pool doesn't match; tangle me again (or fix the path).
  fmtutil: `tex -ini -fmt=tex -progname=tex tex.ini' failed.
  Running mf to create plain base ...
  ! mf.pool doesn't match; tangle me again (or fix the path).
  Done.
  Running mpost to create plain mem ...
  ! mp.pool doesn't match; tangle me again (or fix the path).
  Done.


Thanks in advance,

Bernd
