Deadline Mobile

When I try to access via Deadline Mobile on Android, It crashes pulse immediately. We have Deadline 6 beta 13 installed. The repository and pulse are running on a Win 2008 R2 server.

Is there a newer version of Deadline Mobile that I need for v6? It was working fine with v5.

Pulse window shows: Web Service - Executing Mobile_GetJobList script… Then it crashes

Thanks for reporting this! We’ve fixed this internally and confirmed that both the Android and iPhone apps now work properly. This fix will be included in beta 15.

Cheers,

Yep, Deadline Mobile (on iPhone) is working for me now, after upgrading to Beta 15.

Are there any plans to increase the functionality of Mobile? I’d love to be able to get more information - a task breakdown, which machine is rendering which tasks, individual task render times, etc. Also, the ability to suspend jobs, blacklist slaves, change priority levels, etc. would be great.

Glad to hear it’s working now.

There currently aren’t any short term plans to add additional functionality to the Mobile applications. We have a lot of big plans for 6.x and 7.0 that are currently a higher priority, but I’m sure we’ll revisit the Mobile application at some point!

Cheers,

Still getting a crash on pulse with beta 15

Did you update the machine running Pulse to beta 15? You can confirm the version number of Pulse by selecting Help -> About.

Thanks!

I did update the machine running pulse. It was set to auto update. After I noticed the problem I did a clean uninstall and manual install. Here is the text from Help > About:

Deadline Pulse 6.0

An optional server application for the Deadline Render Management System

Deadline Version: 6.0.0.50661
FranticX Version: 2.0.0.50648

After a restart of all our severs the problem seems to be gone. Looks like it was a configuration problem on our end or perhaps the auto update did not function properly.
