rayinit.cal problems

Hello all,

I recently installed radiance on my Ubuntu machine and am now having some problems with rpict. I get the error: rpict: fatal - cannot find function file "rayinit.cal." I searched through the mailing list archives and found a few items on the placement of library files and setting path variables, but nothing I've done has worked. Currently I have my library files in /usr/local/lib/ray, and I checked to make sure that rayinit.cal is indeed in there (it is). The path variables are exporting properly as I can see the paths when I "echo $PATH" and "echo $RAYPATH," however rpict is still not finding rayinit.cal for some reason. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave Maino

may be it's a permission problem...
try to 'chmod' the ray folder....

Hello,

I think I have the exact same scenario as described in this previous post
below. Perhaps this is more an Ubuntu question, but what exactly would I
have to do in Terminal with the chmod command in order to get rayinit.cal to
work?

Thanks,
Nick

It's probably a RAYPATH problem. Look for rayinit.cal, and set the RAYPATH environment variable to ".:(path)"
