However, thanks to your suggestions, and after execution of commands in the Norbert message, I was able to generate a pdf.

<br>
your report is incomplete, as Lars said.<br>
<br>
It seems that you did not properly finish the installation, formats <br>
are premade during installation, and your log shows that they are made<br>
on first run.<br>
<br>
> A simple *pdflatex -shell-escape helloWorld.tex* takes hours to compile<br>
<br>
That is even more strange. The log you send is the format build, which<br>
might take a few min on a very slow and old computer, and definitely not<br>
*hours*.<br>
<br>
Also, the log does not show the actual compilation output:<br>
<br>
> ~$ pdflatex -shell-escape sample.tex<br>
<br>
...<br>
<br>
> This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-1.40.25 (TeX Live 2023) (preloaded format=pdflatex)<br>
> \write18 enabled.<br>
> <br>
> kpathsea: Running mktexfmt pdflatex.fmt<br>
<br>
Should not happen<br>
<br>
Then the format it build and saved:<br>
<br>
> mktexfmt [INFO]: log file copied to: /mypartition/texlive2023/texmf-var/web2c/pdftex/pdflatex.log<br>
> mktexfmt [INFO]: /mypartition/texlive2023/texmf-var/web2c/pdftex/pdflatex.fmt installed.<br>
> mktexfmt [INFO]: disabled formats: 1<br>

> mktexfmt [INFO]: not selected formats: 53<br>
> mktexfmt [INFO]: total formats: 55<br>
> mktexfmt [INFO]: exiting with status 0<br>
<br>
That is even more strange as it seems that the fmtutil.cnf files was not<br>
properly installed.<br>
<br>
Then the tex run:<br>
<br>
> pdfTeX warning: pdflatex (file pdftex.map): cannot open font map file<br>
<br>
Not good, and should not happen either.<br>

<br>
In fact there should be another in $TEXMFSYSCONFIG<br>
<br>
It cannot find hte basic fonts, which is strange.<br>
So it tries to builds the fonts from metafont sources.<br>
But metafont format is also not build ... <br>
<br>
<br>
Can you show the content of<br>
/mypartition/texlive2023/texmf-dist/web2c/fmtutil.cnf<br>
?<br>
<br>
I am pretty sure that your installation was interrupted or terminated,<br>
and you have a completely messed up installation.<br>
<br>
After having copied the content of the above file into the email, you<br>
can try<br>
mktexlsr<br>
tlmgr generate _fmtutil<br>
tlmgr generate _updmap<br>
updmap-sys<br>
fmtutil-sys --all<br>
that hopefully generates all formats and necessary support files.<br>
<br>
Best<br>
