    Hello All, 

    I'm trying to sort out two issues:

    First, I upgraded to OS 10.13.2.  Since then, DIM and Studio has given me great issues.  DIM will not download executable files (even Studio).  Studio' CMS will not function.  All worked perfectly before 10.13.2 now they don't.  Any one else having an issue?

    I upgraded to 10.13.2 on my 10.13 machine and it seens to work there. I would guess privilegies on the dim Downloads folder...

    Totte, 

    Thanks for the response.  I'm not sure which folder you are referencing.  I keep my content on an external drive which seems to download fine.  It is the executables.  I will check the priviledges on those and see what happens.

     

    Do you have any recommendations concerning CMS?  

    Thanks, 

    Bill

    First I thought about download directory, and if GateKeeper has ideas of what is downloaded, or if you have some other protection software that fails under 10.13.2.
    What would be interesting is to know if you download DS through DIM, does the download some down at all, or is it the installation part that fails? (You can look in the download folder after the download, is it there?'

    Also, is the drive path correct? If a mounted volume glitched or a machine went to sleep, when tghe volume comes back online, it will look in finder as the path is the same, but it isn't.

    If you look in /Volumes, and you had a remote drive named drive, it will now look as drive-1

    Which CMS are you running?
    If you run the new (since 4.6-ish, postgres) there should be a folder in ~/Library/Application Support/DAZ 3D/cms

    In there should be a folbder named ContentCluster and a file cmscfg.json, If you look at that file with a text editor, it is a json file (JavaScript Object Notation) and it will say where your cms is located, which port it listens to, start there.

    can any one give me a link for downloading hexagon 3d modeling software for MAC 64bit ?

    Currently Hexagon is only available in 32-bit.  64-bit is being worked on.

    So Hexagon is being made to work on new Mac now?  From what I understood it hasn't worked on the last few versions of MacOS.  Would be nice to finally give it a try.

    I installed the  HEX Beta through DIM and it runs

    Totte, 

    Thanks for the response.  I'm running the most recent cms.  Also, the cmscfg.json has the following:

    {
        "DatabaseClusterPath" : "/Users/bill/Library/Application Support/DAZ 3D/cms/ContentCluster",
        "Port" : 5432
    }

     

    The ContentCluster is in the right location and Studio is listening at port 5432.

    Still is not working. Hmmmm.

    Any other suggestions?

     

    Also, I just checked to see if my Java was running the most up-to-date version.  It is.  I'm running version 8 update 151.

    No firewall blocking that port?
    What does the DS log say (you find it in DS under Help->TroubleShooting->View log file  (or in ~/Library/Application Support/DAZ 3D/Studio4/log.txt

    There should be log entries about postgres in there.

    No need for java ;-) Java and JavaScript (ECMAScript or LiveScript) are two entire different entities. When Java came in 95, Netscape had just created LiveScript, but marketing saw the buzz around Java and decided to rename it JavaScript (to ride the hype)...

  • Totte, 

    I'm not sure what I'm looking for in the error log.  The log is quite lengthy, but here is the last section that might make sense:

    2017-12-19 09:07:20.819 A valid PostgreSQL CMS connection could not be established.  Several DAZ Studio features that require a valid PostgreSQL CMS connection, such as context aware content views and loading content installed using the Daz Connect service, will not be available.  Check your network, anti-virus, and firewall settings for conflicts.

     

    For your reference, I have DIM, Studio and pgAdmin3 set in the MAC firewall for allowing incoming connections.  Also, I have McAfee disabled for this process.

    Also my port scanning did not show the standard Studio port of 5432 as active or 1024 or 1800.  Further, I attempted to use an open port, but still no connection to cms. 

    Once more thanks for your help.

    Hello,

    If you start Studio, and then start Acitivy Monitor, set it to show all processes, hierachical, do you see any postgres processes running under Studio, as in the attached screenshot?

  • Totte, 

    No, postgres is not running at all.  You may be on to something.  How do I correct this?

    Hello,

    I will try to get you the information you need, unix commands, which I no longer can type in the forum as CloudFlare prevents that from reaching the server and flags the poster as a potential hacking attempt. I tried this in a few posts up, but no, and it's bugreported. I will need to create an image with it, stupid as it is, will take some time though. much less efficient than typing in the forum.

     

  • Totte,

    Thanks for the assistance.

    Let's see if we can fool the CloudFlare protection that prevents me from doing this....

    First start Terminal and navigate to the correct directory
    cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/DAZ\ 3D/cms/ContentCluster

    Now type
    tail -200 dblog.txt

    Then type:

    ls -ls

    Then copy the stuff from the terminal, paste it into a Text Editor (and remove the commands you typed as idf they are in the post it will be blocked, paste the results here in a post.

    Good Day Totte, 

    I ran into an issue with the instructions you gave.  Here is the issue:

    1.  When I open my terminal it shows:  

    Last login: Fri Dec 22 09:48:30 on ttys000

    MacBook-Pro:~ bill$ 

    2. I get the following message.

    Last login: Fri Dec 22 09:48:30 on ttys000

    MacBook-Pro:~ bill$ cd~/Macintosh HD

    -bash: cd~/Macintosh: No such file or directory

    MacBook-Pro:~ bill$ cd ~/Library/Application\Support/DAZ\3D/cms/ContentCluster

    -bash: cd: /Users/bill/Library/ApplicationSupport/DAZ3D/cms/ContentCluster: No such file or directory

    MacBook-Pro:~ bill$ 

    3.  I can see the folder in the finder windows.

    ----------------

    Any thoughts ?

    Thanks again,

    Bill

    I see spaces missing, spaces are represented by \  (backslash + space) in pathnames

    You can open the ~/Library/Application Support/DAZ 3D/cms in finder, then type cd and drag the directory from Finder to terminal to get the correct path

  • Good Day Totte, 

    I was unsuccessful doing the cut and paste from the finder method.  So I attempted to type it in as you specified.  The attached image shows the finder window with the path bar revealed.  It also shows the terminal where I typed in the (backslash + space) but it yielded "No such file or directory."

    Perhaps, I'm not understanding how to cut and paste the (or drag the directory) process.  

    Once more, thanks for your assistance.

    Seeing if I can jump in and help. The reason that all those directory not found you had is you were missing a space.  you have cd~/Library...........  its missing the space after the cd.  so its cd ~/Librarary instead of cd~/Library. 

    A couple of ways of doing this if your typing type the following

    cd ~/Li  (after you type Li press tab and that will complete the word Library/   Then type App. then press tab again and its going to give ou Application\ S    Then you have to type upp and press tab again and it will finish the word Support/   (It does this because its working around having spaces in the path.

    Dragging from the finder is going to require you make the ~/Library folder unhidden so it would be easier to copy the line that was shown above (and copies here) 

     

    Totte wanted you to type / copy these

    Let's see if we can fool the CloudFlare protection that prevents me from doing this....

    open your terminal and where you would type highlight this line below and go to Edit->Copy   Then click on the open terminal window and do Edit->Paste and it should look just like this line and then you should have what he is looking for.


    cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/DAZ\ 3D/cms/ContentCluster

    Now type
    tail -200 dblog.txt

    Then type:

    ls -ls

    (See above posts)

  • Totte and Milo, 

    Thanks for walking me through this. Milo, I copied and pasted your instructions.  For both your considerations, I'm posting the resulting output from the commands:

    1. After I typed in the "tail" instruction, I received the following:

    Thanks once more for your guidance.  Is there a way to get my cms back on line?

    If you in the Terminal type: 
    ps -lax | grep postgres

    (try copy from here and past into the terminal), and then copy/paste the result in here.)

    And a big thank you @Milo for stepping in and explaning.


    And also, you have the wrong privs on the cms folder, you should fix that, but the command might be difficult to explain here.

    You can select the ContentCluster folder in finder and do Command-I (GetInfo)

    Then select "everyone" to no access and then use the cog popup at the bottom and set "Use for all included objects" (or something), trying to translate the text from my "Swedish OSX" to English.

    This can also be done from the Terminal but might be trickier.

    Edit: Adding explanations to the two last things too.

    (1) Postgres complains it cannot start as somthing else is running on that port (another postgres instance)
    (2) it complains about wrong privs, should be 700 (only owner access, no world and no group

  • Totte, 

    I reset the cms folder permissions as you directed.  I typed in the terminal instructions.  This is what is the result:

    MacBook-Pro:~ bill$ ps -lax | grep postgres

      501  5497  5469     4006   0  31  0  4267768    896 -      S+                  0 ttys000    0:00.00 grep postgres

     

    Does this explain the problem with postgres?

    Thanks again, 

    Bill

    OK, no other postgres running in the port.

    Do you have a firewall and does it allow Postgres to open ports?

    hi!

    I'd like to build a mac using a GTX 670 card for running DS 4.10. To do this, I am wondering:

    (1) what is the minimum MAC OS version I must use for DS 4.10

    (2) which version seems the one with the least issues running 4.10

    (3) regarding the minimum MAC OS necessary, as well as given the recommendation made in (2), for 4.10 what

    (a) nvidia web driver and

    (b) cuda driver do I need?

    Thanks for any and all help!

    (1) what is the minimum MAC OS version I must use for DS 4.10

    I think it's 10.7 miminum, not 100%, but I would not recommend running anything below 10.9 (10.7 & 10.8 were rather bad OS:es)

    mcorr said:

    (2) which version seems the one with the least issues running 4.10

    I would say 10.11 or 10.12 (10.13 is still buggy)

    mcorr said:

    (a) nvidia web driver and

    Latest WebDriver from nVidia for that particular OS X version

    I would say 9.x

    mcorr said:

    Thanks for any and all help!

     

    Don't forget that for running Iray you need at least 2GB VRAM, the more the merrier!

    Awesome .... thanks so much Totte ... will get back to you if I can think of other issues that I need to get squared away to get the project going.

    By the way ... the GTX 670 should work in the above configurations, right? It has 4GB Vram and I think is of the Kepler variey.

    Happy Holidays!

    You need to asure one thing, that it has a display port adaptor. I had a ASUS GTX750ti that didn't work, and have a EGVA GXT750ti that does work, only difference, the ASUS has DVI-D and HDMI outputs, no displayport. It's the nVidia driver that only enables cards on Mac OS X when they have a displayport.

    @Totte What do you think of hte EGPU over thunderbolt three, I had heard that 10.13 has better support for it, I read a few reviews and it seemed to work well, though no one running DS. And well for me since I just got the New system its going to be a little while to save my nickles.. or maybe quarters for the cost.  I will say that hooking the Yiynova tablet monitor went way smoother then when I had it on the windows systems.

     

    Though I started to play with reality again and that runs well, and Carrara doesnt use the GPU thouigh luxus will use luxrenderer even exported to cheeta and that rendered pretty well.

    I haven't played with it, but finally Apple seems to have made an agreement with intel so they can allow External GPUs.

    i read that using thunderbolt throttles the thru-put, that is to say, the performance of the external gpus
