Installing On Linux

 

To install OctaneBlender® and OctaneServer, open up the Linux Terminal dialog, then type chmod +x octane_blender_2021.1.4-26.1-stable.run and press Enter. Next, type chmod +x octane_server_enterprise_2021.1.4-26.1-stable.run and press Enter. If Linux asks for your root password, enter it accordingly.

 

After running those commands, you can install the applications. First, type ./octane_blender_2021.1.4-26.1-stable.run -i and press Enter. When that command finishes, type ./octane_server_enterprise_2021.1.4-26.1-stable.run -i and press Enter. Linux installs OctaneBlender® and OctaneServer in the /usr/local/OctaneBlender directory.

 

To run OctaneServer, type OctaneServer and press Enter. To run OctaneBlender®, type OctaneBlender and press Enter.

 

You can also run these applications from the /usr/local/OctaneBlender folder, but the installation process asks for permission, so we recommend running the programs with the sudo command.

 

Uninstalling OctaneBlender® and OctaneServer

To uninstall these programs, follow these steps.

  1. Remove the OctaneBlender folder (/usr/local/OctaneBlender).
  2. Remove the binary links for the programs by typing sudo rm -f /usr/bin/OctaneServer, then pressing Enter.
  3. Do the same for the OctaneBlender® binary by typing sudo rm -f /usr/bin/OctaneBlender and pressing Enter.
  4. Remove the Octane libraries - depending on your Linux system, type sudo rm -f /usr/lib/liboctane.so or sudo rm -f /usr/lib64/liboctane.so
