Your .ini file should reference your scene file, not the other way around. Valid
...ini file contents are not valid Scene Description Language.   The default
clock goes from 0 to 1.   If your .ini file says to use "clock=1" then I'm
pretty sure you'll get the equivalent 20 final frames. However since it looks
like you're trying to #include your .ini file, I wouldn't expect you to be
getting anything but errors.

Try this:
Make a new "MyTest.ini" with the following contents, substituting your scene
file for "MyScene.pov" Run MyTest.ini in POV-Ray and see what happens:

; ***********************************
Antialias=On
Width=800
Height=600

Jitter=Off
Sampling_Method=2
Antialias_Threshold=0.3
Antialias_Depth=1

Input_File_Name="MyScene.pov"

Initial_Frame=1
Final_Frame=20
Initial_Clock=0
Final_Clock=1

;For testing parts of an animation:
;Subset_Start_Frame=5
;Subset_End_Frame=5

;Make sure this is on if your animation loops:
Cyclic_Animation=off
