Raymond Chua Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Hi guys, I am trying to get Houdini 10.0 Apprentice working on my fedora 12 but I am facing some problems. At the same time, I manage to install it in ubuntu 9 with no hassle. Fedora 12 uses gcc 4.4.2 and the current houdini apprentice is using gcc 4.1 When I run ./houdini.install in my terminal, I get this error: Installing: Houdini in /opt/hfs10.0.554 ./houdini.install: line 774: [: /root/houdini: binary operator expected ./houdini.install: line 782: [: /root/houdini: binary operator expected Error: this doesn't appear to be a valid houdini package Any ideas anyone? I am new to fedora core too so please be forgiving. Thanks! regards, Raymond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edward Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Fedora 12 didn't even exist when Houdini 10.0 was publicly released. You will need to examine the mentioned lines (it's just a bash shell script) and figure out what's wrong/missing/different with Fedora 12. Offhand, make sure that you have bash and dirname available.

Alanw Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 Fedora 12 uses gcc 4.4.2 and the current houdini apprentice is using gcc 4.1 You may want to try the debian gcc 4.2 or ubuntu gcc 4.3 build. Assuming you are using 64 bit Fedora 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond Chua Posted March 8, 2010 Author Share Posted March 8, 2010 Thanks guys, Solved. It was mainly due to having the houdini files inside another folder. =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
