The .ini file and the .pov file are getting created
correctly, but povray itself does not seem to be running, so
the image file does not get created and it does not show on
the screen.

If the path to pvengine.exe is correctly set in the "POV-Ray
Executable Location" field, then I think it's again a
problem with the simple quotes, double quotes, spaces
characters in the path.
Java tends to screw the command line when there are space
characters in paths, and PovRay itself is using on the
command line arguments (recombining arguments)
I can't test it on an other system than windows :(

I have the same problem on Mac OS 10.4, G4, Jmol 10.2 - the
.ini and .pov files are created, but povray doesn't start up
and the .tga file doesn't get created.
However, I also have an additional problem - the protein
doesn't show up! Just a blank, 1.5 MB image. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Mike, I have found what the problem is for your blank image.
It's a problem with the model number (jmol) / clock value
(povray):
- model number is 1 (I don't know why, it should probably be 0)
- clock value is 0
So, no atoms are drawn.
To manually fix it:
- find the lines #range (0.9, 1.1)
- replace them by #range (-0.1, 0.1)

is this fixed? If not, resubmit. We need a "povray" interest
group to take charge of doing povray correctly. What is in
there is just a starting point -- very minimal.

It's working for me on XP.
Is the path to povray correctly set in the dialog box
(executable name with full path) ?
