I tried to install Maya 2017 student on linux mint 18.2. When I run this command " sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so /usr/autodesk/maya2017/lib/libssl.so.10 " in terminal, I get this error:
ln: failed to create symbolic link '/usr/autodesk/maya2017/lib/libssl.so.10': No such file or directory
any solution?
Thanks

I modified the script to work with Ubuntu 17.04, and also explained it and added debugging info: https://blog.rubenwardy.com/2017/09/30/install-autodesk-maya-ubuntu-17-04/
You're welcome to take my changes back

Thanks for this script.
It works perfect on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
But somehow not on 17.10
When trying to start Maya, I am getting this odd

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

message and nothing else happens. Also tried with updating the symlinks to: ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.5.2.6 /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3
as well as making a symlink to the graphics driver as I did on 16.04 LTS: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-384/libGL.so /usr/autodesk/maya2017/lib/libGL.so

Thanks for any help installing on a fresh and clean Ubuntu 17.10

Update: for Maya2018 with Nvidia 390 driver make sure to:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-390/libGL.so /usr/autodesk/maya2018/lib/libGL.so

I have the same problem that @magdesign has on ubuntu 17.10
-> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Waiting for an update.
Thank you for you work

Encountered the Segmentation fault as well after upgrading to Ubuntu 17.10 yesterday.
It does actually launch fine when starting with ./maya.bin in /usr/autodesk/maya2017/bin directly
./maya2017 script throws the segfault

I was getting the Segmentation Fault error. It's because it wasn't able to find libtbb_preview.so.2 . So I had to make a link to it using: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtbb.so.2 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtbb_preview.so.2

I fixed the error in Ubuntu 17.10 with starting maya with ./maya.bin instead of ./maya

To fix the xgen error, make a script to launch maya with this content:

#!/bin/csh -f
#
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/autodesk/maya2018/plug-ins/xgen/lib:/usr/autodesk/maya2018/plug-ins/substance/lib:/usr/autodesk/maya2018/lib:/usr/autodesk/maya2018/plug-ins/camd/lib:/usr/autodesk/maya2018/plug-ins/fbx/lib:/usr/autodesk/maya2018/plug-ins/MASH/lib:/usr/autodesk/maya2018/plug-ins/xgen/lib
/usr/autodesk/maya2018/bin/maya.bin

Color Management Error:

Thank you very much for this script.
I got this error while starting Maya. What I did to fix it per the suggestion of this page https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Failed-to-apply-color-management-settings-on-file-open.html

echo "MAYA_CM_DISABLE_ERROR_POPUPS=1" >> ~/maya/2017/Maya.env
echo "MAYA_COLOR_MGT_NO_LOGGING=1" >> ~/maya/2017/Maya.env

and I stopped seeing the error. I would probably include these lines to the original script.

So, any update to this script with new SP or Maya 2018?

@Nixellion,

Apply the same thing on this script only changing maya2017 by maya2018, and all the fixes up here as well, and finally (unfortunately) run with "sudo" and it should be working fine, oh, and don't forget, the libGL.so and libEGL.so will be at nvidia-VERSION folder not just nvidia, i.e. nvidia-387/libGL.so

The only thing I'm running using "sudo" is due to the LicenseServer fail to authenticate or run with normal user, and it could be an Ubuntu thing, that requires "su" privileges to open or use any port under 10000, but that's just a wild guess, not something concrete.

@borgfriend Thanks for this script!

it gets stuck for a long time, i waited for about 1 hour and nothing happened, is its normal ?

Thanks

I finished the script and everything worked fine until I tried running Maya for the first time. I got a color management error, it could not load “shared_catalog.cat”. Ran Maya as root (sudo maya) once and it works perfectly now, even when running it as regular user. Just sharing my experience for anyone that may be having issues!

Tried to install this on Ubuntu 17.10, successfully installed. But when I type : maya
its error : Segmentation fault (core dumped)
I already added
MAYA_DISABLE_CIP=1
LC_ALL=C
but it didn't do anything.

Also tried cd into /usr/autodesk/maya2017/bin/ then run ./maya.bin
its error :
maya: Autodesk Maya 2017Licensing ErrorA licensing error occurred that Autodesk systems were not able to handle for you. Please contact Autodesk Customer Support for help in resolving this error.GetFeatureAuthorizationStatus 1 (Failure)

Any idea guys ?? Cheers

I was getting fatal error during maya launch

hey, Borgfriend!

thank you so much for the script. I tried to adapt it to maya 2016 (the latest version I have a license for) and it ran with no real issues. When I try to start maya up, however, I get the following:

Any Idea what could be going wrong? I am using the Nvidia third-party drivers.

@prashanthbhagavan, @TobiMayr: I had the same problem, it takes a while but the installation will eventually proceed.

When I install, everything goes through well and successful, but when I go to run it, I cannot find ANYTHING whatsoever.

@borgfriend Thanks for this script. It's work!

I use Deepin. I downloaded last version maya 2017 and executed all commands.
I just changed the symbolic links for libtiff.so, libssl.so and libcrypto.so.

Error when I execute the alien command
I'm using the KDE Neon (based ubuntu 18.04)

why not ln -s /usr/bin/true /usr/bin/rpm or better yet alias rpm=true

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia-390/libGL.so /usr/autodesk/maya2017/lib/

thanks a million, your solution fixed my problem!

Hey eveyone, I am on installing Maya 2019 on a mint build, converted using alien ok then the last command failed as it counldn't find the archive, as like many asking questions on these kind of posts I come from a zero coding background, so need some help what do i need to do next?
p.s. I found the deb files they had been added to my home directory but not in a folder, so moved to a folder and seems to be installing.

Upon starting maya 2017, 2018 or 2019 (i have all 3 installed, and all 3 have the same issue) I get this
// Error: file: /usr/autodesk/maya2019/scripts/startup/initMainWindow.mel line 176: ImportError: file /usr/autodesk/maya2019/lib/python2.7/site-packages/maya/app/general/mayaMixin.py line 35: libpyside2.so.2.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, No module named PyQt4.QtCore //

Upon further investigating, just typing in from PyQt4 import QtCore also fails. with
# Error: ImportError: file <maya console> line 1: No module named PyQt4 #

I assume that's not supposed to be the case?

That's a Python issue, try this:

mv /usr/autodesk/maya2019/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_hashlib.so /usr/autodesk/maya2019/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/rhel_hashlib.so

ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_hashlib.x86_64-linux-gnu.so /usr/autodesk/maya2019/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_hashlib.so

I figured out the issue. The solution was specifying the LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This is done automagically in the standard maya launcher, but that crashes/fails for 2017 & 2018. The solution I found there was to write my own launcher script. Like so:

#!/bin/sh
maya_loc=/usr/autodesk/maya2018/
export MAYA_LOCATION=$maya_loc

# Set up the location of the DSO's and run
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$maya_loc/lib/

# DISABLE CIP
export MAYA_DISABLE_CIP=1
 
# Launch Maya!
$maya_loc/bin/maya.bin

However, if you want to use the proper launcher method, I found the 2019 launcher works for 2017 & 2018. So I've copied the code here as well:

#!/bin/bash -f
#Tag 0x00C98a00

Just copy that into your maya bin folder i.e. "/usr/autodesk/maya2018/bin" and save it as "maya2018" or whatever version your using. If its in the same location as maya.bin it should work. You may need to overwrite the one that's there.

You may need to then make sure you run Jibwood's solution to the python hashlib issue:

mv /usr/autodesk/maya2018/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_hashlib.so /usr/autodesk/maya2018/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/rhel_hashlib.so

ln -s /usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_hashlib.x86_64-linux-gnu.so /usr/autodesk/maya2018/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_hashlib.so
