RE: installing on opensuse64 12.1

2013-01-15 Thread Eric Gunther
Hi Chris,

The computer is not on a network, just a single computer.  I have had
some confusion about what the appropriate host and hostname is/are
on linux, so that may be inappropriately labeled.  The license server
was running. I have not delved into the selinux stuff.

I need to know what user softimage runs as.

I do not know if the machine could detect the license server.  I think
the license server is running fine.

I think that it is case where xsi does not have permission to access the
screen but that is just a guess.


thank you,

-e

 Could your machine detect the license server? Is there any network?

Hi Konstatin,

I think so too.  (display problem)

I CAN run other programs but I think it is likely that they were
properly installed using the YAST program, and that something was not
specified (by me) at installation.

I logged in as root, rather than su-c or sudo.  No dice.

thank you,

 Another possibility here is that you might be trying to run XSI as root. Can 
 you try starting XSI as a normal user? This is how it should be run, anyway.

RE: installing on opensuse64 12.1

2013-01-15 Thread Eric Gunther
Hi Thomas,

Just tried again, 

Logged in as root

Yes  using csh

-to start lmgrd -c 'license file'

-to start /usr/Softimage/Softimage_2011/Applcation/bin/xsi

Yes  used csh to Install, although I could try again. ( take a bit though )

I cannot see if there is SE-Linux on this system or not.  I have checked out 
all 
the administration facilities in YAST and couldn't find any specific reference 
to SE-Linux,


There are many facilities for Administration (security policy, login 
enviroment, boot) 
although none specifically mention SE-Linux.

I would have to do more searching...

a quick look, it seems as though SE-Linux is not used in opensuse.


OpenSuse I have found to be the best overall system for me after various 
distros.  Previously
I had tried Fedora because I saw that it was supported (by SI) but had 
difficulty then as well.
So, because I use the system for other stuff also, and I have a windows 
installation of SI, I moved on 
in terms of linux OS.

Thank You,

-e

And from that same commandline (what are you using?) you can start other
programs like xterm or xeyes or whatever without a problem?
If so, I have absolutely no clue what could be going on. If you get the same
error something Xauthority related seems to be fxxxed (in that terminal at
least) and I would recommend googling in that direction.

When whoami gives you root, it means you are logged in as root in that terminal.
Make sure whoami returns your username (linux-hq44?) before you try to start
XSI.

mmmhh, ok.
you were doing:
#xhost +local:hostname
try:
#xhost +local:username

so just to get it right:
you open a terminal (xterm?)
you run whoami and it prints your username
you run: csh (or tcsh)
you run: /usr/Application/Softimage/Softimage_20/Application/bin/xsi
ERROR
you can run xeyes without error
run: env

like that?

Re: installing on opensuse64 12.1

2013-01-15 Thread Thomas Volkmann
Unfortunately I'm not in front of a linux-box right now
but you could try:
xhost +localhost:eric

since XAUTHLOCALHOSTNAME=localhost
I don't know about that one:
XAUTHORITY=/var/run/gdm/auth-for-eric-nRFtsF/database
I never hat to deal with stuff like that, but that is the direction I would be
googling for. It is strange that you can run other apps though :/
What does your /etc/hosts look like? No idea if is causing this, but that file
has fxxxed up things so often for me.
I'm off for today.

I can't find that file,

find: `.xsi_2011': No such file or directory

searched the entire hard drive.

I hadn't seen it, but that makes me more confident.

there is however, an XSI.bin, and in that case I get

./XSI.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libadlmint.so.1: cannot

I looked and that is located in the same directory along with

Hi

The .xsi_2011 file is in /usr/Softimage/Softimage_2011

In my case:

cd /usr/Softimage
find . -name .xsi_2013_SP1
./Softimage_2013_SP1/.xsi_2013_SP1

When you run this command:

/usr/Application/Softimage/Softimage_2011/Application/bin/xsi

it is actually a script that sources .xsi_2011 for you

I can't find that file,

find: `.xsi_2011': No such file or directory

searched the entire hard drive.

I hadn't seen it, but that makes me more confident.

there is however, an XSI.bin, and in that case I get

  
eric@linux-hq44:/usr/Softimage/Softimage_2011/Application/bin ./XSI.bin

./XSI.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libadlmint.so.1: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory

I looked and that is located in the same directory along with

libadlmint_libFNP.so.1.3.34  libadlmint.so  libadlmint.so.1
libadlmint.so.1.3  libadlmint.so.1.3.34



before I was trying to change permissions and owner of the file but seem
to get the same result. if I run

RE: installing on opensuse64 12.1

2013-01-14 Thread Konstantin Levinski
It is a display problem, I suspect it is not specific to XSI. Can you run any 
graphical program (firefox, for example) from the same prompt?

Another possibility here is that you might be trying to run XSI as root. Can 
you try starting XSI as a normal user? This is how it should be run, anyway.

It seems like there's some connection to license server problem.
hostname: Name or service not known

Could your machine detect the license server? Is there any network?
