URLOpenError[SSL:1076]

Error: <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer cerficiate (_ssl.c:1076)>

SOLUTION:

• Groomer's Tool is not tested with Apple Mac and will have no support for it. If you must run the tool with an Apple Mac, please try this instead.

• For MAC, the default Maya folder is located at 'Users/YourName/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/2024/scripts/' Please put the xgtc folder in this path and run the following code.

• If you are installing Groomer's Tool in Maya's default folder, the folder path is /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/2024/scripts/

import ssl
ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context

import xgtc
import xgToolsUI_user_sub
xgToolsUI_user_sub.XgtRun()

• If you are installing Groomer's Tool in a custom folder path (E:/3rdPartyTools/)

import ssl
ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context

import sys
xgtcPath = 'E:/3rdPartyTools/'# change the path in green to the directory that you put the xgtc folder in. Make sure to use '/' forward slashes
if xgtcPath not in sys.path:
    sys.path.append(xgtcPath)
    
import xgtc
import xgToolsUI_user_sub

xgToolsUI_user_sub.XgtRun()
