[Lazarus] Errors in Windows

[Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho]

Hello,

I just had a very strange issue which is driving me crazy o.O I
installed the IDE in this computer months ago and I came back and
worked on it a bit and everything went fine. It could build projects,
run them, etc.

So I did svn update and launched my standard build file (unmodified)
to make bigide and get a newer IDE.

To my surprise ever since I haven't been able to get the IDE to work
again =( The basic error is this one:

Cannot find fpc.cfg which is non-sense, because the file is there in
the same directory as the fpc.exe is ...

If I ignore that I will get tons of errors. It cannot find the basic
lpk files, but they are all there in their normal positions. My paths
have no spaces and I didn't change anything, not even the start
compiter.

The computer is running Windows Vista so I think it could be one of
the crippy new "features" from Vista which is blocking Lazarus from
being able to read the files or something, although I cannot rule out
some kind of regression ... I already tried to specify the --pcp and
reconfigure everything to no help. Also tried to delete the
configuration directory (I use --pcp=C:\programas\lazarussvn now) ...

Any ideas what could be the problems?

thanks,
