ID 267672 - Non-existent OCIO config crashes Katana

Katana 2.5 crashes on startup when the OCIO environment variable is set to a config that doesn’t exist or that the user doesn’t have permission to and prints errors to the terminal:

In Katana 2.1 and below it doesn’t crash, but prints errors, produces UI glitches and fails to create the Monitor tab:

 

 

Katana 2.5v1-5 RHEL 6.4

Katana 2.5v1, 2.5v5 Windows 7

 

Crash not reproducible in Katana 1.6v3, 2.0v1, 2.0v5, 2.1v1, 2.1v5

 

Katana should exit gracefully or fall back to a default config.
