It works for Scriblogify as well as Scribble. Thanks, Matthew. <div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Oct 27, 2012 at 11:15 PM, Matthew Flatt <<a href="mailto:mflatt@cs.utah.edu" target="_blank">mflatt@cs.utah.edu</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">You're running into sandbox filesystem-protection rules. When you include a path in #:requires for `make-evaluator', then read access is granted for that file in the sandbox, so that's why the extra #:require path changes the document's behavior. Outside of DrRacket... well, I'm not excatly sure. Something in DrRacket's configuration of various path and module parameters enables access to the directory containing "my-scribble-doc.scrbl", while the configuration of raw `racket', `scribble', or `raco scribblogify' doesn't allow access to the directory. Assuming that you trust the code that you run in documentation --- at least as much as you trust the document itself --- the best approach is probably to use `call-with-trusted-sandbox-configuration': @(interaction #:eval (call-with-trusted-sandbox-configuration (lambda () <div class="im"> (make-evaluator 'racket/base (sandbox-output 'string) (sandbox-error-output 'string) </div> #:requires '("../Private/my-racket-mod.rkt")))) (f 1 2)) I didn't actually try that with `raco scribblogify', but I got the errors that you report when using `raco scribble', and using `call-with-trusted-sandbox-configuration' solves the problem with `raco scribble'. <div><div class="h5"> At Fri, 26 Oct 2012 22:38:25 -0400, Patrick King wrote: > When last I wrote on my problems with Scriblogify, I attributed them to > Windows 7 security...
