`pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file fcr14): Font fcr14 at 600 not found`

[dbitouze]

The following code:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T4]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
\Large
\G{A} \G{B} \G{C} \G{D} \G{E} \G{F} \G{G} \G{H} \G{I} \G{J} \G{K} \G{L} \G{M}

\G{N} \G{O} \G{P} \G{Q} \G{R} \G{S} \G{T} \G{U} \G{V} \G{W} \G{X} \G{Y} \G{Z} 

\G{\OE} \G{\AE} \G{\O}

\G{a} \G{b} \G{c} \G{d} \G{e} \G{f} \G{g} \G{h} \G{\i} \G{\j} \G{k} \G{l} \G{m}
\G{n} \G{o} \G{p} \G{q} \G{r} \G{s} \G{t} \G{u} \G{v} \G{w} \G{x} \G{y} \G{z} 

\G{\oe} \G{\ae} \G{\o}
\end{document}

doesn't compile via latexcgi because of:

pdfTeX error: pdflatex (file fcr14): Font fcr14 at 600 not found
 ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

Is it hopeless?

[davidcarlisle]

not sure why it didn't build, I'll check later but it's there now

(I just ran the file on the server and the fonts built)

Indeed, looks okay now: thanks! (I'm not sure whether I should close this issue or not.)

[davidcarlisle]

leave open and I'll look later why it failed.

OK the issue was that TEXMFVAR had the default value under the home directory but the server runs in an account without a home directory but it does own the texlive installation so I have set (in texlive/2024/texmf.cnf)

% dont use home var TEXMFVAR = $TEXMFROOT/texmf-var

so TEXMFVAR is the same as TEXMFSYSVAR and the files do now get rebuilt (after I deleted them) in /usr/local/texlive/2024/texmf-var/fonts/pk/ljfour/jknappen/fc/
