hi,

i have tried over the weekend, but i still cannot get
povray to render *anything* (see previous post in
different thread).

i added another two lines to the .conf files:

[Permitted Output Paths]
1=/

but still, povray terminates with an error. now, it
reads the source file, but still refuses to write
the image to disk (to '/tmp', to be precise)!


i'd be really glad if somebody could just tell me
what's wrong with this configuration (well, i guess
that there must be other people using povray on unix,
so please help me out! ;).

if you want to try it, here's the complete [.]povray.conf:

---
[File I/O Security]
none

[Shellout Security]
allowed

[Current Directory Read/Write]
allowed

[Permitted Output Paths]
1=/
---

according to the docs, this should work with any
input and output directories... or is it a bug? :)
