Demo01_TheBasics problem

Hi,
I'm using vc9 and Ogre 1.4.7
Ogre examples run without any problems, but when I try to run OgreNewt the first demo example I get:


The program '[2824] Demo01_TheBasics.exe: Native' has exited with code 0 (0x0).


and the Ogre.log file looks like that:

and I don't know why it can't find resources.cfg and plugins.cfg (which are in bin (debug and release) catalog?

Can anyone help me?

Sorry for my english.

using visual studio?
check if the working directory is set right. in vc8, it's in project properties->configuration properties->debuging
i have Command=$(TargetDir)$(TargetFileName) and Working Directory=$(TargetDir)
Vc8 seems to randomly reset them from time to time, though...

edit: make sure you set it for both Debug and Release

thanks. it helped me but only with the first demo. When i try run the second demo (and other) i have the same exception:(. Also, when i used my ogre project and changed it into ogrenewt project i had the same problem but not with resources.cfg etc but with "cilinder.mesh". The application searched it on the h:\ drive which even not exist:/.

yes, you would have to change it for all of them, i think

ok, I think I've solved those problems, but now i have some new exceptions/warnings:


OGRE EXCEPTION(2:InvalidParametersException): Parameter called lightSpecularColor does not exist. in GpuProgramParameters::_findNamedConstantDefinition at f:\ogre_cvs_vc9\ogrenew_146\ogremain\src\ogregpuprogram.cpp (line 883)

would it help if I use other models which are delivered with OGRE (not with OgreNewt)??
