Hi,

I install the apprentice of Houdini 16 and when I open it I have this error

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “<stdin>”, line 2, in <module>
File “/opt/hfs16.0.504.20/houdini/python2.7libs/sas/localassets.py”, line 1780, in ensure_webresponder_server_is_running

mkdir(name, mode)
OSError: Permission denied: ‘/home/matevil/houdini16.0/asset_store’

and I see all icon black

I use Ubuntu 16.04, any ideas for fix it?
Thank you
Matteo

Try running this first prior to starting Houdini

This moves aside your preferences and gets Houdini to generate them again.

Hi Edward,

thank you so much (again… I need to pay one beer if I meet you )… yes, now it's working

Matteo

mh…. Edward no beer yet

Actually you have two problems at once I have this message error too. I've send an email to a support team. Waiting for the solution.

ok, waiting….
thank you a lot

As a workaround, set this environment variable prior to starting Houdini

Or put it in the houdini.env :

We hope this issue will be fixed in the next daily build.

Thanks Mark, I try it also on CentOS in the next time

just FYI I setting my pipeline on Linux Mint (I try to use CentOS and Fedora, but I prefer Linux Mint for my pipeline) however. On Mint last daily build works fine.

export LC_ALL=C

I have created a regular expression to automatically edit the .desktop
