[cgkit-user] Setting up rendering

[Greg F. <gre...@gm...>]

Hi All,
I'd appreciate your help with an issue I'm having. I just setup up cgkit and
have the viewer working but rendering with the RenderMain apis is not
working. When I run render.py I get the error:

Exporting main.rib...
Traceback (most recent call last):

I'm not running on windows though. This is on a Powerbook with OS X 10.6.4
with cgkit 1.2. I've installed aqsis and pixie and the error occurs with
both. Is there anything I need to do to configure the renderer? It doesn't
ask for the binary path as far as I can tell.

Any thoughts on how to fix this or did I miss something in the install
process?

Thanks,
Greg

ps. 'import protocols' appears to be working.
