Hi Everyone!
I've been experiencing the following warning on startup in the Console since the last few builds:

= = = Resources registration = = =
Viewer state type conflict: labs::ruler
Conflicting viewer state: C:/Users/xxxxx/Documents/houdini19.0/SideFXLabs/19.0.659/SideFXLabs19.0/viewer_states/ruler.py
Colliding with: C:/Program Files/Side Effects Software/sidefx_packages/SideFXLabs19.0/viewer_states/ruler.py

Viewer state type conflict: viewportmeasuretool
Conflicting viewer state: C:/Users/xxxxx/Documents/houdini19.0/SideFXLabs/19.0.659/SideFXLabs19.0/viewer_states/viewportmeasuretool.py
Colliding with: C:/Program Files/Side Effects Software/sidefx_packages/SideFXLabs19.0/viewer_states/viewportmeasuretool.py


Clearly it has something to do with duplicate python files. Does anybody know which one is safe to delete?

Thank you.

I think you have two installs of labs. The one in your documents folder is probably the older one, since the launcher now installs labs in the launcher folder.

That's what I thought but chickened out on acting on it. Thank you!

I'm getting a similar message with 19.5, except it looks like it's colliding with itself?

Viewer state type conflict: viewportmeasuretool
Conflicting viewer state: C:/Program Files/Side Effects Software/sidefx_packages/SideFXLabs19.5/viewer_states/viewportmeasuretool.py

Try installing python 3.7 version of 19.5.303. That removed all the kinefx errors for me but I'm still getting errors of 'Viewer state type conflict: viewportmeasuretool' and 'Viewer state type conflict: labs::ruler'

Edit. The stream of errors came back again.

I added a fix for the next 19.5 daily build. It looked like these type conflicts were wrong, although I wasn't able to reproduce them. The fix should avoid reporting false type conflicts.

Thanks a lot! No errors popping up in 19.5.355.
