Possible parse error #417

Hello, I'm trying to load a scene that I generated with osm2world.

I get this error, have you any suggestion please ? Could it be related that I'm not admin on this path ? If yes, is there a way to bypass it ? Thanks, Frank SOLIDEO.zip image

At a first glance, it looks like you're simply missing an input image file (i.e. an image used as a texture or some such). Maybe a typo in the file name? Or the file is really not there?

POV-Ray should be fine with read-only access to that path, and although there is an additional level of access protection built into POV-Ray, if that got in your way you should see a different error message.

Is that image file something you provided yourself, or something that the tool you're using - osm2world - should have generated? In the latter case, it might have failed to generate the file if you don't have write access to the path in question.

I would recommend you turn to http://news.povray.org/groups/ for additional support. The folks there are generally quite happy to help, and to assist you in digging deeper into the matter.
