System Information
OpenSuSE 12.1

Blender Version
Blender 2.69

Short description of error
I've downloaded the latest blender release (http://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/graphics/blender/release/Blender2.69/blender-2.69-linux-glibc211-x86_64.tar.bz2) and extracted the files as usual to /opt. From my console I move to the install directory and type ./blender, the application won't start and reports a lot of error lines:

OpenColorIO Error: Error: Loading the OCIO profile '/opt/blender-2.69/2.69/datafiles/colormanagement/config.ocio' failed. yaml-cpp: error at line 1, column 3: unknown escape character:
Color management: using fallback mode for management
connect failed: No such file or directory
found bundled python: /opt/blender-2.69/2.69/python
bpy: couldnt find 'scripts/modules', blender probably wont start.
ImportError: No module named 'bpy_types'
ImportError: No module named 'bpy_types'
pyrna_srna_ExternalType: failed to find 'bpy_types' module
...
...

Blender 2.68 works like a charm on the same computer.

You probably got a corrupted download, or deleted by mistake some dirs… Did you check the paths from your error messages? Did you try re-downloading and re-decompressing the archive?

Oh, or this could also be an authorization issue, can you (as a simple user) read content from /opt/blender-2.69/2.69 & co?

Thanks to mont29, the download was corrupted. I installed blender again, now it works perfectly.
