sudo mkdir /etc/init.d/
I did this before installing the license server.
Then I just copied the sesinetd.service that comes with Houdini into /usr/lib/systemd/system
then I ran
systemctl enable --now sesinetd.service
Full Version: Houdini Installation issue on Manjaro
Hi, just wanted to confirm that this was really helpful and made it work on Manjaro 23.1.0 ("vulcan") and Houdini 20.0.

Then I just copied the sesinetd.service that comes with Houdini into /usr/lib/systemd/system
then I ran
systemctl enable --now sesinetd.service

Hi,
After the latest 6.6.16-2 update, Houdini started having problems with the jemalloc memory allocator which now causes Houdini to crash after a process is started.
I'm pretty sure it's related to an update in the glibc library and other libc updates.
There is already a related topic Houdini 20 crashes on startup [bbs.archlinux.org] where users started to encounter this. There was a way to use LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libc_malloc_debug.so but that doesn't help anymore, it helps to start Houdini but it crashes elsewhere.
P.s: If logs are required I can provide reports of the entire coredumpctl utility crash.

Please submit a request through support so that we can investigate.

Hey, this thread was still open in my browser by accident... what a coincidence
I submitted a report through support, and went through trying to set the whole LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libc_malloc_debug.so thing, but what made it work for me is this
export HOUDINI_USE_HFS_OCL=0
I guess it's either a driver or opencl library thing?
The strange thing was that everything else (mplay, gplay, etc etc) was working, it was only the main Houdini app that was crashing.
I'm not using much opencl atm (as far as I can tell -- although I did try a quick vellum sim and it was working
) so I'm good as far as I don't run into any other crashes (My support ticket number was #149410)
(UPDATE: this is Houdini 19.5.897)
This has been fixed in the daily build. SideFX are the best!
20.0.632
Fixed an issue that kept Houdini from starting on systems built with glibc 2.39.

Nice -- I wish it was backported to 19.5 also (if it's an easy fix)
I've gone ahead and backported the change to 19.5.910. Please give it a try and see if it has resolved the issue.
