Just trying out Silo and run into a problem with POV-Ray. When starting a 
render from Silo, POV-Ray stops with an error:

"File init error: Cannot open output file"

The strange thing is that it works fine with POV-Ray 3.5 The only 
difference then, off course, is the setting that points to pvengine.
C:\Graphics\POV36\bin\pvengine.exe /RENDER
C:\Graphics\POV35\bin\pvengine.exe /RENDER

Both version of POV-Ray are set up identical.

Is anybody using the same combination and having the same problem?

After carfull examination, not so, there was a difference in povray.ini:

removing 'Output_File_Name=D:\images\' from my povray.ini file removes the 
problem and alle renders fine.
