Problem running RHugin using latest version of HUGIN

[Anders L Madsen]

The RHugin plugin (https://github.com/huginexpert/RHugin) searches for the HUGIN installation is a specific location. This location is no longer used to install HUGIN software.

Here is how to solve the issue on the Windows platform:

RHugin tries to locate the Hugin installation, but fails because the naming of the Hugin directory has changed.  Try the following workaround:

• Start a “Command Prompt” with “Run as Administartor” privileges.
• CD to the directory that contains the Hugin installation ("C:\Program Files\Hugin Expert").
• Run this command: mklink /D "Hugin Researcher 8.8 (x64)" "HUGIN 8.8 (x64)"

     

Notice the Hugin/HUGIN distinction in the mklink-command.

Then follow the instructions for installing the RHugin package.
