Is anyone else experiencing issues installing 17.5?
I have selected to uninstall previous version and to install Apprentice licensing.
During the install I get the following pop up (see attached). Nothing can be done on this screen. I have to close it… when I start 17.5 it says license is not installed.

Apprentice licensing uses a local licensing. Did you check the Local Licensing box when you were installing?

Run Houdini as admin the first time.

Hidey ho! Contact
support@sidefx.com if you're having license or install issues and they can help you out.
Also, there's this FAQ for common licensing issues

You don't need to use local licensing for Apprentice. Default installs are fine.

Thanks everyone. Stopping the server and running Houdini first time as admin solved the problem!
