I am stuck with this error message...

Error 
Error rendering child: /out/pyro_smoker/pre_render

any suggestions on what might be the problem?

Can you go to Houdini Text Port and type
echo $OCIO
? What result do you get?

I changed it via "Edit - Color Settings" to a different OCIO Folder on my disk and now it works.
Seems it didn't like the Labs OCIO Setting.

What directory did you change it to? I'm running into the exact same thing on Build 568 (of Houdini and Labs), changed my OCIO directory to "C:\Users\(user_name)\Documents\OpenColorIO-Configs-feature-aces-1.2-config\aces_1.2" and got the same error.

I put it on C: directly and referenced it in the houdini.env file:

OCIO = "C:\OpenColorIO\aces_1.0.3\config.ocio"

this seems to have done it

Thank you, that helped me! I had that variable in the windows environment variables and it was getting ignored every time I restarted Houdini.
