Hello, 
installation failed partially when run from the scilab 5.4.1 console (machine W7-32bits) :
atomsInstall('toolbox_skeleton')
then it's "difficult" to clean the install to try another way because atoms now
found that
it is partially installed : I assume it's a pb of access rights to the directory since
Scilab was installed with admin rights on this machine but i asked for toolbox
installation with a lower file access rights user account. i don't know if there is a nice
way to manage this case.

Installing with admin rights give similar error when restarting scilab (admin rights too):
Start Toolbox skeleton
	Load macros
	Load gateways
	Load help
	Load demos
atomsLoad : Une erreur est survenue au cours du chargement de 'toolbox_skeleton-5.4.0-1':
	addModulePreferences: Fichier de pr?f?rence incorrect:
C:\PROGRA~1\SCILAB~1.1\contrib\TOOLBO~1\54B0F8~1.0-1\etc\toolbox_skeleton_preferences.xml.


Thanks,

David

Could you give us the content of the file
C:\PROGRA~1\SCILAB~1.1\contrib\TOOLBO~1\54B0F8~1.0-1\etc\toolbox_skeleton_preferences.xml.
?

Hello,

I got the following error during the module initialization : 

atomsLoad : Une erreur est survenue au cours du chargement de 'toolbox_skeleton-5.4.0-1':
addModulePreferences: Fichier de pr?f?rence incorrect:
/home/pierre/.Scilab/scilab-branch-master/atoms/toolbox_skeleton/5.4.0-1/etc/toolbox_skeleton_preferences.xml.

and indeed there was no file "toolbox_skeleton_preferences.xml" in that
directory.

I solved the problem by copying the file from
"/usr/share/scilab/contrib/toolbox_skeleton/etc/" to the local scilab directory.

Hello Pierre Vuillemin



I confirm your findings and reported it as a bug in bugzilla, no. 13269:

http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13269



I do not understand how you can find a file in /etc since this directory contains .start 
and .quit files only (no XML files). I looked in other locations (and other 
toolbox_skeleton packages on ATOMS) and never found the missing XML file.
