these seem to b all the dependancies u need.

sudo dnf install libpng15 libpcre16.so.0 libGLU.so.1 libGLU xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-100dpi xorg-x11-fonts-ISO8859-1-75dpi

Thank you so much, Substance wouldn't install on Rocky Linux until I ran this.

I have installed them all but Maya still doesn't open, the console doesn't show me any errors either.

How can I delete everything and do the installation again or how can I find out what is going on?

[Nicolaas.tanghe]

Hello,
I no longer have acces to maya but the way to know what is happening is to run the maya excecutable from the terminal and c what errors it throws you.

[Nicolaas.tanghe]

Id also like to add for the google indexer that i am unable to get lops working in houdini if i don`t install these.

[unocastillo]

That it is the problem.

It doesnt shows nothing.

[Nicolaas.tanghe]

it shows you nothing when you launch the binairy from the console ?

[unocastillo]

It shows me this. The open image of Maya and all this in the console.


Then the opun image of maya goes and the console stills like this an nothing happens:

 I think my problem it is that i am using Rocky linux 9.1

We're running Maya 2023.3 on Rocky Linux 9.1.  You need to set `MAYA_NO_HOME=1` or Maya crashes on startup. 

Cheers

it worked.

I launched it from terminal. But when maya opens, it disables "Arnold Render".
why it is this?

// Warning: file: /usr/autodesk/maya2023/scripts/others/supportRenderers.mel line 67: The renderer "arnold" used by this scene, is not currently available. The "mayaSoftware" renderer will be used instead. To prevent this message from being displayed in the future, set the environment variable: MAYA_NO_WARNING_FOR_MISSING_DEFAULT_RENDERER=1

Well i installed maya 2024 and everything just works. Nice.
