@travisdh1 Also nothing was in the logs for Maya or Autodesk. . .
Starting to get irked.
That's all anything from Autodesk has ever been for the IT side of things. PITA

I'm actually nearing the point of 1) Using Windows SW Raid 2) Installing Windows 3) installing Maya
This whole process has taken way longer than it needs too.

Tell me about it, I dealt with their crapware over 6 years ago at my last job. The support was a job "Here's a fax of a fax of a fax of a copy of a stencil help response to your question asking for very specific things of which none of this applies."

Let me guess. No repo to install from, stupid hardcoded dependencies that are out of date even by CentOS standards, or even worse install time self-compiler.

RPM's and a few dependency issues, libpng12 and libpng12.so.0 (which can be installed) but still the program doesn't work.
Attempting both RPM and their ./setup both install something, neither of which actually gets the program to a launch-able point.

Can I kick whoever put that installer together? I'll bet money that it's looking for libpng12.so.0 in a different place that where it actually is, and it's hardcoded into the program. If you can figure out what directory it's looking for it in, you can create a link to where it actually is. Good luck finding that piece of information
Edit: Spartan kick that is.

@travisdh1 So you're saying just stab myself in the foot now and not bother. . .

Windows SW RAID has those limitations, too.

I'd call support while recording the call while they try to squirm out of actually fixing anything.

The issue isn't with the RAID, it's with the installation process on CentOS (which supposedly works) but I can't figure it out.
At least with Windows, the software "works".

Yeah. . . seriously I'm crying (on the floor) right now from having to deal with this crapware. All I want is an enterprise server platform to run my rendering on.
Why the hell am I essentially being forced to "Use Windows".. .

Does AutoDesk only have 1 person on call for all of the East coast. . . wth. . .
-
apparently My Boss was working with a site on setting up a lab for them and didnt tell any of us about it. so when they put a call in We're cautious about giving information to the IT departments at our sites ( because thats what I was taught: by MY BOSS. )
Im frustrated. Good thing I have a go live in an Hour and will be leaving soon .

At least the Autodesk hold music is better than some of the music I've heard before. . .
