Hm, strange. Could you have a look into the project file and check the svg file 
pathes? Normally, they should be something like:

<symbol outputUnit="MM" alpha="1" type="marker" name="0">
                        <layer pass="0" class="SvgMarker" locked="0">
                            <prop k="angle" v="0"/>
                            <prop k="name" v="/biology/Coniferous.svg"/>
                            <prop k="offset" v="0,0"/>
                            <prop k="size" v="6"/>
                        </layer>
                    </symbol>

So in your case "/mySymbol/symbol.svg"

See you in Barcelona,
Marco
