It's probably a licensing setup problem. First check out https://www.sidefx.com/faq/ [sidefx.com] to see if there's info there that's relevant for your case. If not, then email support with your license diagnostics.

I was getting this issue… also on windows(10).
I solved it by sending back and re-requesting my license.
It said I only have a limited number of times to do this… hope I don't run out.
edit:
as it seems to be an issue of incorrectly targeting the apprentice version for some, thought I'd point out that in my case I was definitely opening the indy version, but a licensing issue afterward switched that to apprentice.

I had this issue initially both on OSX and Windows. I did not realize SideFX installs shortcut links specifically for Houdini Indie, Apprentice and Houdini. Initially on both my mac and windows machines I just assumed the generic Houdini shortcut was what I should use so on my Mac I placed that on the doc and did the same in windows. When I opened up Houdini it defaulted to open in Apprentice mode. When I replaced these shortcuts with the correct Houdini Indie shortcut everything worked fine on both systems.
