Read some posts above or below about 'povray.conf'. You need to create such 
a file. And you should have filled in your name where now stands 'FILL IN 
NAME HERE' ;)

When I tried to change file ~/.povray.conf :

[File I/O Security]
none

it did not help.  I think, that all configuring of I/O restriction
is not function. So I solved this problem small
hack of sorce code:

file:          src/unix.cpp
line:         1331
change:    io_all_allowed=true;
