Hi, I'm not sure what I missed, the same json file works at:

c:\Users\me\Documents\houdini18.5\packages

but houdini can't find it or any json file under:

$HISTE\houdini18.5\packages

My other things like otl and scripts works fine under $HSITE.

I been searching for a while but can't find any similar issues, so does anyone know anything may cause this?

Thanks

It is a system environment variable pushed by windows group policy.

We have a similar setup and works just fine with 18.5 (py 2.7)

Isn't it just a typo or an extra space? As in your first post, you have $HISTE instead of the $HSITE

Do you use any variables in the JSON packages? It could be the wrong syntax, unescaped space, or backward slashes…

You can set the HOUDINI_PACKAGE_VERBOSE variable to get more verbose processing.
Also, make sure HOUDINI_PACKAGE_SKIP is not set (either in the environment or any package).

Thanks, good to know it works on your side. I thought there must be some simple mistakes however I just couldn't find it. I will check again thank you.

Also, there was an issue with broken packages from 18.5.408 to 18.5.415.

Ok I figure it out.

Since I'm on windows my old HSITE was a network address something like
\\server\houdini18.5\packages

I changed slash
//server/houdini18.5/packages

It worked.

The strange thing is my otl folder and every other folder works under my old HSITE variable except packages. After I changed it, my local machine start recognizing it.
