Error when building owl_cpp in win7 boost.build

[aelue]

I'm trying to build owl_cpp in win7(64bit) using boost.build and vs2015-msvc-compiler.
Following the directions in "doc/build.txt":
Copy "boost-build.jam" to "D:\Project32\owlcpp-v0.3.4" and edit as follows:

...
boost-build "D:/Project32/boost_1_62_0/tools/build/src/kernel" ;

Copy "user-config.jam" to everywhere - "D:\Project32\owlcpp-v0.3.4", "C:\Documents and Settings\Lenovo", "C:\Users\Lenovo", And edit as follows:

...
using msvc ;
...
local utils = "D:/Project32" ;
...
constant BOOST : "$(utils)/boost_1_62_0" 1.62.0 ;
...
constant OWLCPP : "$(utils)/owlcpp-v0.3.4" 0.3.4 ;

Run VS2015 console in Administrator mode, type "b2..." and Error as follows:

D:\Project32\owlcpp-v0.3.4>b2 --toolset:msvc debug release
lib\jamfile.jam:12: in modules.load

Seems like the Constant "OWLCPP" is not got by Boost.build, but why?!

Where is the win7 HOME directory!
Where to put "user-config.jam"!
I am crazy!!!!

Problem was resolved by rolling back boost's version to 1.53.0
