Create a temporary folder for Maya:
sudo mkdir /usr/tmp
sudo chmod 777 /usr/tmp
Step 9
$ sudo sh -c “echo ‘setenv LC_ALL en_US.UTF-8′ >> /usr/autodesk/maya2012-x64/bin/maya2012″
Step 10
$ /usr/autodesk/maya2012-x64/bin/licensechooser /usr/autodesk/maya2012-x64/ standalone unlimited
Step 11
Export a couple of variables
sudo -i
export MAYA_LOCATION=/usr/autodesk/maya2012-x64
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/Autodesk/Adlm/R4/lib64/
Step 12
Pass the serial number and the product key to Maya
/usr/autodesk/maya2012-x64/bin/adlmreg -i S 657D1 657D1 2012.0.0.F serial_number /var/opt/Autodesk/Adlm/Maya2012/MayaConfig.pit
Step 13
Navigate to our Maya2012_setup folder
cd /home/Username/Maya2012_setup
Step 14
Create a file named mayaInstall.c
in Maya2012_setup. Open it with your text editor and paste this line:
int main (void) {return 0;}
Save and compile it with this command:
gcc mayainstall.c
Now you should have a file called a.out
. Backup your /usr/bin/rpm
with this command:
sudo mv /usr/bin/rpm /usr/bin/rpm_backup
and replace rpm
with a.out
:
sudo cp a.out /usr/bin/rpm
Step 15
Type following command:
./setup
This will start setup, deselect DMM, backburner and go next
Use these serial:
serial :666-42943644
product key :657D1
Step 16
cd /usr/autodesk/maya2012-x64/lib/
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtiff.so.4.3.4 /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3
ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libssl.so.6
Step 17
Open /usr/autodesk/maya2012-x64/bin/maya2012
with a text editor and add the command
setenv LC_ALL C
After this line
setenv LIBQUICKTIME_PLUGIN_DIR "$MAYA_LOCATION/lib"
