just tell to povray where inludes files are :

  - Menu Edit -> Preferences
  - In "POV-Ray Application Preferences" windows, select "Scenes" tab.
  - Under "Include Paths" box, clic "Add..." button.
  - with the browser, locate your pov-ray include files folder and
    clic "Choose"
  - Now in "Include Paths" box, you can see the include files path.

  that's all... but READ THE DOC. 
  

  have fun.
