chmod +x ... You need to set the executable bit.
It's on windows. the .bat file does have "read&execute" allowed.

Do you have an error message in the console if you launch dolphin from the command line ?

I did run dolphin.exe from cmd but it goes to background and no messages are printed in the console. i did not find any parameter to keep it in foreground/attached to console.
