The error message suggests that the following crashed:

   luatex -ini  -jobname=luatex -progname=luatex luatex.ini

Can you run it by hand (as administrator)?

'fmtutil --refresh' just recreates existing formats, so it shouldn't 
fail.  And, by the way, you should have been running fmtutil-sys rather 
than fmtutil if you're trying to reproduce what the texlive postinstall 
scripts do.

Have you installed texlive-collection-formatsextra?  If not, I think 
this is to be expected.  In any case, it can be ignored unless you use 
mltex.

Have you installed texlive-collection-xetex?
