I believe only bash sees the environment.plist. The only way to get everything to see an env variable on osx is to put it in launchd.

That's what so odd. We have the environment.plist all working, and all the volumes are mounted etc etc. I just have no idea why using ssh would behave differently than actually sitting at the machine. i.e. we're not having trouble getting nuke to launch and see the plug-ins in normal operation. > > So the following (physically sitting at the machine) works: > > gfx08$ /Applications/Nuke6.3v5/Nuke6.3v5.app/Nuke6.3v5 > > but this (sitting at the machine next to it using ssh) does not: > > gfx11$ ssh gfx08@gfx08 > Password: > Last login: Fri Dec 16 09:39:45 2011 > gfx08:~ gfx08$ /Applications/Nuke6.3v5/Nuke6.3v5.app/Nuke6.3v5 > > what could possibly be different?? > > On Sat, Dec 17, 2011 at 10:56 AM, Diogo Girondi <[email protected]> wrote: > > On OSX I usually add a Apple script app to the user login items that mounts the necessary volumes quietly on startup and then I use a another Apple script to launch Nuke. > > To auto mount the volumes: > > tell application "Finder" > try > mount volume "smb://Lola/ToolBox/" > on error > display dialog "Lola wasn't there, come back later." > end try > end tell > > > To launch nuke: > > do shell script "export NUKE_PATH='/Volumes/ToolBox/Nuke';'/Applications/Nuke6.3v5/Nuke6.3v5.app/Nuke6.3v5'" > > But you can easily replace this last one for a environment.plist saved on .MacOSX/ pointing to the Nuke path. > > O the renderfarm Qube was running similar commands before starting a nuke render and the volumes were being auto-mounted by Linux on startup. > > But there are probably better ways to approach this. > > > Cheers, > Diogo > > > > On 17/12/2011, at 15:56, Gary Jaeger <[email protected]> wrote: > >> /Applications/Nuke6.3v5/Nuke6.3v5.app/Nuke6.3v5 > _______________________________________________ > Nuke-users mailing list > [email protected], http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ > http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users > > > > -- > Gary Jaeger // Core Studio > 249 Princeton Avenue > Half Moon Bay, CA 94019 > 650 728 7060 > http://corestudio.com > > _______________________________________________ > Nuke-users mailing list > [email protected], http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ > http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/l > > ________________________________ > _______________________________________________ > Nuke-users mailing list > [email protected], http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ > http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users
