Do you have to update the file database?

Did you copy all required DLLs to the same directory as luatex.exe?
This is just a guess, AFAIK Windows complains if a DLL can't be
loaded.
Since many useful debugging tools like strace or ldd don't work on
Windows, consider to install "Dependency Walker":

Under MinGW you could also try:
strings /path/to/luatex.exe | grep -i '\.dll$'
Dependency Walker was formerly part of Mark Russinovich's Sysinternals
Suite, which provides a lot of debugging tools for Windows:

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
