I encontered some new errors when running LPub today.
First, I tried running it on my secondary machine, which I've been LPubbing on
successfully for about a year. On that machine were multiple installations of
POV-Ray, and I had just recently installed/uninstalled LDraw software helping
Ahui test the 2004-Q4 installer.
These are the errors I received:
count_steps: Failed to open the file .... for reading. (clicked OK)
create_construction_images: Failed to open file C:\..... for reading (clicked
OK)
create_part_lists: Failed to open file C:\...... for reading (clicked OK)
same error as above (clicked OK)
Now, I thought that my recent installing/uninstalling had messed up some links
somewhere, so I removed _everything_ LDraw-related from my secondary machine.
Once I was sure all LDraw copies and all POV-Ray installs were removed, I
re-installed using the LDraw Q4 installer provided by Ahui. It set up POV 3.5,
MegaPOV 1, and all the tools I needed.
I launched LPub, it asked me where L3P was at, I told it. Then I loaded my LDraw
file and my config file, and went to run. When I did this, I received the same
errors.
So, then I thought - why not go back to my primary machine? I usually don't LPub
there, but I do recall that it was working the last time I did. Tried it there,
and received the same set of errors.
The LDraw file I'm using is one I just created today, with nothing fancy in it.
So, I don't see how that should be a problem.
Help? Thanks!

| (...) Hi Tim, Does your Ldraw file have any "0 FILE ..." lines with absolute paths? I've found Lpub doesn't handle these very well at all. Try removing them. Or putting something in front of FILE to comment them out. ROSCO (20 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad)
