Troubleshooting Q&A

 

 

Q: Linux Error shows up during the mental ray Satellite rendering.

 

A: The problem is that the ffxDyna.so file is linked against Qt but the Satellite renderer doesn't load Qt whether it's in the linker path or not. Below is an example for Maya 2014 on Linux. Thanks to Daniel Ott for this solution.

 

Add the following lines to /usr/autodesk/mrsat3.11.1-maya2014-x64/rayrc:

 

link "libQtCore.so"

link "libQtGui.so"

 

Then copy the Qt libs from the maya lib folder to the satellite lib folder.

 

cp -a /usr/autodesk/maya2014-x64/lib/libQtCore.so* /usr/autodesk/mrsat3.11.1-maya2014-x64/lib/

cp -a /usr/autodesk/maya2014-x64/lib/libQtGui.so* /usr/autodesk/mrsat3.11.1-maya2014-x64/lib/
