This is a real stumper for me!
Back in 2022, I wrote myself a userSetup.py
or a userSetup.mel
file that was intended to open up a custom toolkit window on startup. And it worked!
The trouble is, it’s now 2024, and somehow in the past 2 years, I managed to bork it! Now when I start up Maya, it says the following:
# Error: line 1: name 'myRiggingToolkit' is not defined
# Traceback (most recent call last):
# File "<maya console>", line 1, in <module>
# NameError: name 'myRiggingToolkit' is not defined #
The thing is, I’ve forgotten where I saved that userSetup
file, and I’ve had no luck searching my computer for it! I need to find it so I can update that broken line of code, but my PC seems to think the file doesn’t exist. However, I know I haven’t written that line of code in any path available to Maya. Believe me, I’ve checked thoroughly!
Is there some weird userSetup cache that I might not be able to find with just a cursory search? Can I override this mystery userSetup file with a new one? Would a fresh install do anything? I’m really banging my head on this one!
I’m running Maya2022 on Windows. Maya.env looks like this:
MAYA_SHELF_PATH = %MAYA_APP_DIR%\2022\custom\shelves;
MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH = %MAYA_APP_DIR%\2022\custom\scripts;
XBMLANGPATH = %MAYA_APP_DIR%\2022\custom\icons;
PYTHONPATH = %MAYA_APP_DIR%\2022\custom\scripts;
