I went through the pdf and installed Maya 2012 x64 rpms in OpenSUSE 12.1. When trying to launch I get this error:

/usr/autodesk/maya2012-x64/bin/maya.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have already copied the ‘libssl.so.6’ and ‘libcrypto.so.6’ files from ‘support’ folder to ‘maya2012-x64/lib’ folder. But it gives me this error when launching.

Copy those files to the request version numbers

.so.0.9.8. As well as .so.6

Depending on the system one may be better off to see if there is a compatibility rpm package for libssl.so.6

Red Hat Enterprise Linux does.  Fedora doesn’t
Other option is to link the system .so.10 to .so.6

Thanks for the help. The files provided with Maya are libcrypto.so.6 and libssl.so.6. I copied it to the maya lib folder. Still it doesn’t start after linking. I tried linking but doesn’t work and I get the same error. There are no compatible packages available or it states that a compatible version is already installed.

so you now have 4 files

libssl.so.6
libssl.so.0.9.8
libcrypto.so.6
libcrypto.so.0.9.8

my normal “workaround” is to not have any of those files in the Maya lib directory
and do:

cd /usr/lib64
ln -s libssl.so.10 libssl.so.6

cd /lib64
ln -s libcrypto.so.10 libcrypto.so.6

your system may find the 64bit versions of these libraries in other system directories

do check the permissions to the lib files you copied as well. for some reason the files i copied didn’t had executable permissions even though they were in place. I had to manually change them to detect the same. I think it should have raised a file permission error instead of file not found in my case. but the changes i made fixed the problem.
