I'm trying to install Houdini 16 apprentice on Linux Manjaro 64bit but when I run
houdini
I get this :



I click Next, accept the terms and I get this :



so I go to http://license.sidefx.com/get_nc_license.php, [license.sidefx.com] select “Houdini (Non-Commercial)”, “Houdini 16”, enter my server name and server code according to
sesictrl -n
and get :

“ERROR: Internal error: The noncommercial user could not be found”

When I open the Houdini License Administrator with
hkey
I get this :



What should I do ?

Try running happrentice instead of houdini. Houdini is the full version Apprentice is the free version.

Also try that URL in the message box or just contact support@sidefx.com.

OMG Thank you ! I didn't see this “happrentice” command anywhere in my research. I wonder where it's documented.
About the URL in the message box, I tried it as explained earlier but I apparently uploaded the same screenshot twice, which may have confused you, so I just fixed it and put the proper image.
But problem solved anyway ! (can we mark topics as solved here ?)
