I also duplicated this error. My system is also windows 7 64-bit, though i'm not sure that makes a difference, since i resolved this by using a script to remove the quotes " that hugin is adding to the values of TEMP and TMP environment variables. I suspect the windows api calls in enblend.exe to retrieve value of TEMP folder don't tolerate quotes in the path.
WORKAROUND: create a script in your C:\Program Files (x86)\Hugin\bin called "enblend.cmd" with the contents: if defined TEMP set TEMP=%TEMP:"=% if defined TMP set TMP=%TMP:"=% "%~dp0\enblend.exe" %* (you might have to open notepad with "run as administrator" rights to modify/create files in program files under windows 7). then change the preferences in hugin to choose the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Hugin\bin\enblend.cmd" instead of the enblend.exe. (under File, preferences, "stitching" tab, "use alternative enblend program") Maybe the resolution will be to change hugin not to add the quotes? Be curious if this workaround works consistently for everyone else... I'm new to trying hugin but have unsuccessful at creating a stitched .exr hdr type panorama.. still trying... I resorted to 32 bit hugin because i was having issues with 64-bit not creating any HDR exr output either... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Hugin Developers, which is subscribed to Hugin. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/679512 Title: Enblend fails from Hugin, works from cmd line Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI: Fix Released Bug description: This bug has actually been reported a number of times, but closed out because people assumed it was simply a problem of not enough disk space. I have a case that proves this is not the case... and have added some information that will hopefully help diagnose the real problem. My bottom line: Enblend works from command prompt, not from Hugin, and I suspect the issue is that Hugin may not be properly setting environment variables before launching Enblend.

From the command prompt, Enblend uses F:\temp\WinTmp as it should. From within Hugin, Enblend dies without attempting to create a temp file at all! THE BIG QUESTION What is different between calling Enblend from the command prompt vs from Hugin? My strong suspicion: Hugin improperly sets environment variables before launching Enblend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hugin/+bug/679512/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~hugin-devs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~hugin-devs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
