We installed krakatoa for maya on linux just fine, but we are running into a license issue when trying to render. I couldn’t find anything in the docs about setting an environment variable for the license server. As a side note, we also installed it on our windows machines which popped up a box when we tried to render asking us to point to the license server. We then just pointed it at the license server and all was working. Should there be something similar for the linux version? It would be ideal for us to use linux.
Krakatoa uses FlexLM for licensing. To license on Linux, you will need to set the LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable. For example:
export LM_LICENSE_FILE=@my_license_server
In Windows, a dialog will pop up. In Linux it currently does not. However, we have programmed our own “license picker dialog” Linux, and it will be available for the next release.
Ah that worked. Thanks.
