I went to my desktop machine and did the same thing. I got different results.
You've given great info on what you did to test it out. Could you give me info
on what you did to clean it out?

Steve Barile, did you do the above step?

The first thing that render_single_dat() (the function that renders complete
model) does is call create_working_dirs() (the function that creates all the
LPub working directories for the current model).
It looks like this failed. Do you have write premission for the directory that
contains m6459.ldr?
Where is your LDview 3.0 installed? The default is "C:\Program Files\LDView",
which has a blank in its name.
The LDraw installer installs LDView in "c:\LDraw\Apps\LDView" which doesn't have
blanks in the name.
The version of LDView installed by the LDraw installer does not have LPub
support.

Again, it looks like a permission problem (which contradicts with the next item)

Are you sure this was rendered by LDView 3.0?

I still have a race problem here.

Do you have more than one LDView installed? How did you install LDraw library?
L3P?
