MacOS version : 10.7.2 ( lion ) Doxygen version : 1.7.5.1 Graphviz version : 2.29

Doxygen configuration -

DOT_PATH = ../../../../Applications/Contents/MacOS/Graphviz HAVE_DOT = YES SHORT_NAMES = YES

From the log console -

First line it gives a warning - warning: the dot tool could not be found at ../../../../Applications/Contents/MacOS/Graphviz - I have tried various combinations but the warning does not go , although it generates the images.

Generating dot graphs using 9 parallel threads... Running dot for graph 1/68 sh: dot: command not found

Problems running dot: exit code=127, command='dot', arguments='"/Users/salilk/Documents/project/DoxygenDocs/html/a00033.dot" -Tpng -o "/Users/salilk/Documents/project/DoxygenDocs/html/a00033.png"'

In the html directory the .dot files have been generated but no .png.

Now if I execute the same command from the Terminal the .png file gets generated and is displayed in its .html file.

Another error from the console is - error: problems opening map file /Users/salilk/Documents/A2O Collaborate/DoxygenDocs/html/a00032.map for inclusion in the docs! If you installed Graphviz/dot after a previous failing run, try deleting the output directory and rerun doxygen. - Is this related to the above problem ?

I have used Doxygen before on a Windows machine and didn't have these errors , do we need to do any configurations specific for Mac ?
