I have an exact problem as this post. I have checked the answers there, and found a probable reply here. Sad that I am in linux, and cannot use bat file.
Pasted is my latex file, which compiles well with xelatex:
\documentclass[dvipdfmx]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage[pass,paperwidth=4in,paperheight=4in]{geometry}
%
%\font\serif="FreeSerif:script=beng"
\font\serifbb="SolaimanLipi:script=beng" at 16pt%
\font\deffont="Lohit-Bengali:script=beng" at 14pt%
%
\author{\serifbb {শক্তি চট্টোপাধ্যায়}}%
\title{\serifbb {যখন বৃষ্টি নামলো}}%
\date{}
\begin{document}
\deffont %Default font used for the document
\maketitle
\noindent
\begin{center}বুকের মধ্যে বৃষ্টি নামে নৌকা টলোমলো\\
কূল ছেড়ে আজ অকূলে যাই এমনও সম্বল\\
নেই নিকটে - হয়ত ছিল বৃষ্টি আসার আগে\\
চলচ্ছক্তিহীন হয়েছি, তাই কি মনে জাগে\\
পোড়োবাড়ির স্মৃতি? আমার স্বপ্নে মেশা দিন\\
চলচ্ছক্তিহীন হয়েছি, চলচ্ছক্তিহীন।
\vspace{.5in}\\
বৃষ্টি নামলো যখন আমি উঠোন-পানে একা,\\
দৌড়ে গিয়ে ভেবেছিলাম তোমার পাব দেখা।\\
হয়ত মেঘে-বৃষ্টিতে বা শিউলিগাছের তলে\\
আজানুকেশ ভিজিয়ে নিচ্ছো আকাশ-ছেঁচা জলে\\
কিন্তু তুমি নেই বাহিরে – অন্তরে মেঘ করে,\\
ভারি ব্যাপক বৃষ্টি আমার বুকের মধ্যে ঝরে!\end{center}
\end{document}
using xelatex, its working properly:
$ xelatex jbn.tex
...
*geometry* driver: auto-detecting
*geometry* detected driver: xetex
[1] (./jbn.aux) )
Output written on jbn.pdf (1 page).
Transcript written on jbn.log.
I tried using htxelatex:
$htxelatex trial.tex html
...
(/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/generic/tex4ht/html4-math.4ht)) (./jbn.aux)
(/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/tex/latex/tipa/t3cmr.fd)
! LaTeX Error: Command `\acute' already defined in `'.
See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.

?
and then starts printing many things ending up with:

[-t<tfm-font-dir>]
[-u10] base 10 for unicode characters

[-v<idv version>] replacement for the given dvi version
[-xs] ms-dos file names for automatically generated gifs

May I get some help?
EDIT Friends,
I have solved the ! LaTeX Error: Command ``\acute' already defined in'. problem by putting \usepackage[no-math]{fontspec}
but, no child process error is still there, and also, html's body is essentially empty: html output:

I have added the path, as per your instruction and this link.
$kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFHOME

$ echo $PATH
/home/rudra/texmf/scripts/lua/make4ht:
but I am still getting the same error:

-xor-loption to compile your document with xelatex or lualatex. But that error message is strange anyway, could you post your whole compilation log, please? – michal.h21 Sep 24 '13 at 14:51
