perhaps the double backslash causes trouble?

groping in the dark...

after calling lyx with the userdir option as follows

W:\programs\LyX15\bin>lyxc -userdir w:/AppData/LyX15beta1

the configure script runs and lyx start

seems like there is a problem with finding the appdata dir

note that %APPDATA% is fine here:

W:\programs\LyX15\bin>echo %APPDATA%
\\ulysse\users\edwin.leuven\AppData


No, it is not fine. As I said, you had to appropriately change some
ENV variable and/or registry setting. Try with

set APPDATA=W:\AppData

W:\>set APPDATA=w:\AppData

W:\>lyxc

as i wrote earlier, when changing this

-    logfile = 'configure.log'
+    logfile = '//ulysse/users/edwin.leuven/configure.log'

then configure.py writes configure.log in w:\

so why should this work, but stumble elsewhere?

so i still think that the problem is with the script, not with my environment...
