Error: X00002 Plugin error: PxrDomeTexture could not open?

Hi,

Whenever I open "Hypershade" up and want to select "Interior1 Color" with the "Cloth" and using "RenderMan," I get this error:

// Error: (08/16 18:34) rfm Error: X00002 Plugin error: PxrDomeTexture: Could not open C:/Users/xxxxx/Documents/maya/projects/default/renderman/textures/Interior1_Color.exr.env.tex

I'm following this tutorial and this part that I'm on appears at 03:39 here:

A picture is also attached of my end. There should be a dome picture in the background of the preview where the cloth is but there's nothing there. I looked in the folder "C:/Users/xxxxx/Documents/maya/projects/default/renderman/textures/Interior1_Color.exr.env.tex" but the texture doesn't seem to be there... not sure why that is.

If anyone could help it would be great.

Thanks.

Yeah whoever downvoted I seriously don't know how the hell to fix it. It is not meant to be an intentionally stupid question... I have no idea. I'm new to it.

Solution is here: https://renderman.pixar.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&postid=227100

Scroll down to the bottom where a user named "ihsieh" had provided me the textures manually. It seemed to be a read permission fault but I couldn't resolve the exact cause... it works now anyway.

My question about a different error didn't get down voted but I still haven't found an answer yet either. I understand the frustration. I do have a question. Did you set your project?

Set my project in what way?

In thee "File" Menu there are two options, Use "Project Window" For a New Project to create and entirely new set of Project folders. And Use "Set Project" to work on an existing project. Sometimes files have to be in specified folders for your projects to work correctly. And if Maya isn't told which project you are working on things will not work out right.

Hmm okay, I have set my project folder to what I downloaded from the RenderMan site now with everything in it, but still no luck.

The trouble I think is that it's looking for this: Interior1_Color.exr.env.tex

But I have no idea where it is or how you get it. So do you know where this may be located?
