I have the HD non commercial edition and I have just discovered the daily build release for Lion. At the moment I can launch the app without any problem, but I can't open the help at launch. I receive this message:
Could not initialize the help server:

if you have original mac(iMac,mac book.mac…) and Nvidia video cart try new driver from nvidia web site( http://www.nvidia.com/object/quadro-macosx-256.02.25f01-driver.html [nvidia.com] )

DistutilsPlatformError: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/include/python2.6/pyconfig.h (No such file or directory)
Hi All,
Just an update. If you upgraded to OSX Lion and don't have help anymore in Houdini and the above error message appears in the Terminal (assuming you started Houdini from a terminal), then you can do the following:
1. Download and install the latest XCode.
2. Open a Terminal.app and run the following:
sudo mkdir -p /usr/include
cd /usr/include
# This ‘ln’ command is actually a single line.
# It just appears as multiple lines because of word-wrapping in the forum.
sudo ln -sf /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/include/python2.6 python2.6
What this does is create a symbolic link from where Python is expecting pyconfig.h to exist to where the OSX Lion and XCode upgrades have moved pyconfig.h to.
Cheers,
Rob

Rob,
I ran the code you mentioned and still receive the same error. Version of Xcode is Version 4.3.2 (4E2002). Sorry for the length:

Having the same problem pyconfig.h (No such file or directory) - I have installed the latest version of Xcode (4.3.2)
I ran the following but with no luck
sudo mkdir -p /usr/include
cd /usr/include
# This ‘ln’ command is actually a single line.
# It just appears as multiple lines because of word-wrapping in the forum.
sudo ln -sf /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/include/python2.6 python2.6
Any ideas anyone

Hey there,
You don't need to have Xcode installed, you just need to have python installed. Which is installed with all versions of Lion.
This is correct, except you just need to change your location to where lion has installed python - for me it's this…
sudo mkdir -p /usr/include
cd /usr/include
# This ‘ln’ command is actually a single line.
# It just appears as multiple lines because of word-wrapping in the forum.
sudo ln -sf /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/include/python2.6 python2.6
