Hi, I am new to povray and would very much appreciate your help.
I have installed the povray-3.7 using the MacPorts package manager. Now I am
trying to render some of the scenes that are already available in the "scenes"
directory to familiarize myself with povray. I have also placed the right
library path for the "include" directory.

Here is the command: povray povray.ini +Istarfield.pov
and below is the output:

Tried many of the scenes but have got the same result. So I believe this is not
a scene-specific error but a more general one. Any Suggestions?

The rendering must be done in a write-ok directory, for the rendering user.
