In PATH I have "C:\Program Files (x86)\LilyPond\usr\bin". It is a
correct path (the folder exists).
When I type lilypond:
GNU LilyPond 2.12.3
programming error: cannot find absolute argv0
continuing, cross fingers
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:
ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load path
I use Miktex 2.9 x64.
Greetings,

Hello, I encounter the following output, no matter how do I try to use
lilypond from cmd.
"lilypond-windows" drag&drop works, but I want to generate an image
file (e.g. PNG) so I cannot use it.
What I want to include inline sheet music in a latex document. Not
interested in typing notes directly in
latex. I prefer to have them rendered in PNG files and rebuild and
include when necessary.
C:\Users\Jacek\Desktop\test>lilypond "test.ly"
GNU LilyPond 2.12.3
programming error: cannot find absolute argv0
continuing, cross fingers
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:

I have found a lot of posts with the same problem with solutions, but
I am confused what should I actually DO to get it working.
Could you provide me instructions step-by-step what should I do? I
mean, sth like this: click here, type this, press enter.
I have tried it for 3 hours, so I am not a give-me-the-codez guy.
Thanks in advance,
A couple of questions: what do you get when you just type "lilypond"
(without the quote marks) on the command line? What's in your PATH
statement?
------
I reproduced this 'error message' on my Linux box.
I downloaded the sh file and installed LilyPond and I know it works because
I did some simple test stuff on it by creating a test.ly on my desktop and
running via CLI while being CWD in /Desktop:
lilypond --pdf test.ly
All works.
However if I try to run lilypond against a file in a 'relative dir' (rather
than in the same dir) I get the same problem
--snip--
address@hidden:~$ pwd
/home/james
address@hidden:~$ lilypond --pdf ./Desktop/test.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.14.1
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:
ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load path
address@hidden:~$ cd Desktop/
address@hidden:~/Desktop$ lilypond --pdf test.ly

Now this may be expected, as I have for the last two years used LP on a Mac
or with Windows using the drag and drop method. I rarely if ever used LP in
a CLI context and never on Linux until now.
My path is
address@hidden:~/Desktop$ echo $PATH
/usr/lib/libfm:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/home/james/lilypond/usr/bin/
So maybe this is the same issue.
Is this expected?
I haven't read any documentation :) I just assumed that all I had to do was
point to my LP bin dir and I could run it on any file as long as I gave the
full path.

========================================================
It's not quite the same error - you don't get the lines:
programming error: cannot find absolute argv0
continuing, cross fingers
However, I wouldn't expect either, personally. I can run with relative
directory references on word fine.
