Maya 2019-2020 crash on launch, Mac Catalina

Hey Autodesk community!  

 

Having an issue where Maya 2019 and 2020 crashes upon launch.  Specifically on 2020, I'm getting a bit more information from the system about what's going on... First time posting for help, so give a shout if I'm missing any deets!

 

Here are some specs:

 

MacOS Catalina 10.15.3

MBP Retina 15" Late 2013

2.3 GHz QuadCore Intel i7

16GB RAM, 1600 MHz DDR3

NVIDIA GT 750M 2GB, Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB

 

Attempted reinstalls multiple times, and with different versions of Maya.  

 

Added Maya to Accessibility and Full Disk Access Security & Privacy settings.

 

Attempted launching from Terminal.

Also attempted launching from Applications folder and right-click > "Open."

All same results 😕

 

The most stable results I've gotten: Consistently works properly upon 1st launch of fresh install.  Closing and launching 2nd time always fails (as below). Consistently alternates between launch success and failure.

 

Each time Maya launches, gets to license page BUT displaying error message:

Fatal Error.  Attempting to save in /var/folders/vp/_9ddn71n4758t8q027qrmq5r0000gn/T/Kathy/20200414.1616.ma

 

And Terminal displays this when launching from there:

Kathys-MBP:~ Kathy$ /Applications/Autodesk/maya2020/Maya.app/Contents/MacOS/Maya

Hello @Anonymous,

 

thanks for posting this issue. As a first step, can you please try the suggestion from this post: Maya - Fatal error (Attempting to save...)

 

Editing the Maya Env file and adding this line might solve the issues:

MAYA_DISABLE_OPENCL=1

Here are instructions where you can find the Maya Env file on your MAC: Setting environment variables using Maya.env

 

Looking forward to you reply, if you had success!

 

Best regards,

Patrick

Hello @patrick.schock!

 

I have the exact same problem as the topic starter.

I opened the Maya.env file with TextEdit and pasted the code line that you mentioned. After saving the file and opening Maya again, the same Fatal Error popped up. 

 

What can I do to fix this? Hope to hear from you!

Hello @Anonymous,

 

can you please try to reset the user preferences by following the instructions from this article: How to reset the Maya Preferences to Default.

Please make sure that Maya is closed, then start to rename the related folder.

 

Looking forward to your reply, if this helped.

 

Best regards,

Patrick

The crash is pointing to the multi touch feature. It’s possible the Wacom driver is not compatible, or there are multiple devices with multi touch capabilities, ie tablet, track pad, Magic Mouse generating a conflict

 

there is a preference option to enable/disable the feature.  If Maya starts up once, can try to turn off the option

can try disconnecting the tablet to see if Maya launches
