I have an indie version, but when i am trying to use renderman, it quotes that it c'ant execute prman.
I have checked on pixar website forum and it said that it is already installed. Is there anything to do to make it work?

I am using Renderman with Indie and it works. There is an extensive thread on the Renderman website about how to get this working. The steps vary according to what OS you are running.

In my case, on Windows 7 64bit I simply installed Renderman then altered the houdini.env with the following lines.
RMANTREE="c:/Program Files/Pixar/RenderManProServer-20.9"
PATH="$PATH;$RMANTREE/bin"
HOUDINI_DEFAULT_RIB_RENDERER=prman20.9

The first step is to get Renderman to work without Houdini. Can you render the example files? Once you know Renderman works then you can take the extra steps to get it working with Houdini.
