I have spent about 5 hours trying to troubleshoot this, and I give up. I am running on a brand new install of Vista 32 with all the latest patches and updates. Using the latest version of Blender.
I installed on an XP box and it worked right away. It’s only Vista machines I get this problem with.
Here is the log…after the log I will list everything I have tried.
Error Message
Exception during render: An error occurred in RenderTasks(): Error in CheckExitCode(): Renderer returned non-zero error code, 1 (FranticX.Processes.ManagedProcessAbort) (Deadline.Plugins.RenderPluginException)
at Deadline.Plugins.ScriptPlugin.RenderTasks(Int32 startFrame, Int32 endFrame, String& outMessage)

Stuff I have tried…and yes I know some of this was not necessary but I like to be through.
- Set Everyone Full Control on Python, Blender, and Deadline directories
- Went back to Python version 2.5.4 even though 2.6.1 works fine on XP
- Ran slave from command line
- Clean install of everything including Vista
- Rebooted before each try
- Set Python directory in PATH variable
- Opened blend file in Blender to make sure the machine could render it seperately (it does)
A little help please?
Thanks
