8.0.0.47 Beta Installer Bugs

Hey guys,

I’m running into a couple of bugs when I try to install Deadline 8.0.0.47 silently. First issue I run into is when I don’t define the --slavedatadir it fails the install complaining that it’s not defined. Seems like the default location isn’t defined in the --help either.

Second issue is that after using the following command to install D8, the launcher shows “invalid Repository” and the attached error log comes up when running the slave.

Command:
S:\DeadlineClient-8.0.0.47-beta-windows-installer.exe --repositorydir \inferno2\deadline\repository8 --licenseserver 27001@deadlinelic.scanlinevfxla.com --slavedatadir S:\deadlinedata --slavestartup false --mode unattended

Now if I install D8 again manually using the UI, it works just fine. I don’t have to change any of the values for what it has in the repository or license server location for it to work.

Thanks for reporting this, we will look into it.
