This seems good.

You do not need to set \bibliographystyle, it is set in the BibTeX
References popup.

I am not sure that bibtex searches for .bst files in the BIBINPUT
path. You should try to set BSTINPUTS too.
As far as apa.bst is concerned, there exist alternative styles
already. For example (I did not try them):
apa: macros/latex/contrib/other/apa/
apacite: biblio/bibtex/contrib/
mslapa: macros/latex/contrib/supported/mslapa/

You could try to export your file as LaTeX, run latex by hand and see
whether this fails at some point. Then we'll probably be able to find
a workaround.
