This may well be something very simple, but I'm not finding it.

I'm trying out LPub for the first time.  I had LDraw and MLCAD and had
created a number of .ldr files which I wanted to run through LPub.

Today I downloaded and installed POV-RAY, Mega-POV, L3P, and LGEO.  All
installed successfully.  I then ran through the LPub install and was also
successful.

When I started LPub, I identified the location of L3P.exe and then the LGEO
library.

Problem: When I go to Generate > Complete Assembly, POV-RAY runs and in the
end generates the message:

Could not find file 'C:\LDRAW\MODELS\brickquest\12x24.pov'

Scene file parser initialization error.
Cannot open input file.

Returned from renderer (non-zero return value)

LPub then, of course, says that it couldn't find the generated BMP.  In the
process of trying to resolve this, I've uninstalled and reinstalled LPub,
and gone in and found the file which sets the L3P directory and verified it.
It looks to me like L3P never runs to convert the 12x24.ldr into 12x24.pov

Hi Peter,

Thanks for all the good info.  What version of Windows are you running on?

If you send me your DATs, I can try to run them here.  Also send me your
config.lpb from the LPub install directory.
