# Error: line 1: MelError: file C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2016\Python\lib\site-packages\pymel\core\language.py line 906: Error during execution of MEL script: file: C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2016/scripts/others/createMayaSoftwareCommonGlobalsTab.mel line 50: setParent: Object 'commonTabColumn' not found.

I've been talking with my colleagues and none of us have specifically seen that error but it seems very similar to errors when you delete or move plug-ins or libraries.

If it happens only occasionally it does seem similar to a case where it was Norton System Optimizer that was blocking a different plug-in. Our suggestion is to temporarily any anti-virus or system optimizers and test for a day or two see if the error occurs.

Hi.

thanks for your reply.

// Error: file: C:/Program
Files/Autodesk/Maya2016/scripts/others/createMayaSoftwareCommonGlobalsTab.mel
line 50: setParent: Object 'commonTabColumn' not found.

In another machine, after a fresh install I have that error message.


It docent affects the functionality of the software. but still, makes me
curious.

Cheers.

Hi!
I am also running into these issues, everytime I turn VRay as my main render:

What makes it "go away" it to delete the pres folder and restart Maya, losing all my settings and plugins, of course.
Any clue?
