OS X nightlies

[DPGrafik]

Am i the only one who can't find the OSX versions of the nigthlies or stable vray builds, at least for the past week, theres is no OS X build?

For the some reason the script that runs the nightly builds seems not to be executed anymore on our Mac OS X builder machine; it is properly listed in crontab and works fine when run manually, however it doesn't run automatically. I suppose that one of the Apple software updates may have disabled it somehow but we haven't had time to look into it in detail.

[edit] Looks like cron may have been broken since we updated to Mac OS X 10.8, so I guess we'll have to use another way to run the script automatically.

Best regards,

Ok,

hope you guys figure it out

Hey,

Any estimate on when, the OSX nightly builds is available again?

Cheers

cron is not the way to do scheduled tasks in OS X. You should use launchd. If you want a good GUI editor for launchd tasks, I use Lingon: http://www.peterborgapps.com/lingon/index.html

Any ETA on the Maya 2013 vray build for OS X?

I don't want a good GUI editor, I just want it to work

Still working on the Maya 2013 build; there is a change in the way plugins are loaded in Maya 2013 only on Mac OS X and it's causing me some headaches...

well, it's a lot more likely to work if you use launchd. Try this:

well let's just hope it's resolved soon, so we can use 2013

Still haven't fixed that, but I ran the builds manually yesterday, so there is a 2013 build from the 28th of May.

Best regards,
Vlado

Hi Vlado, are you closer to an estimate when the nightly build issue is resolved for the OSX platform?
