Error console

Deadline
1

Hi those that read this thread. Does anyone know if there is, or there are plans to have a console window in Deadline that will show python script errors. I found reference to self.LogInfo and have seen the stdout functionality, but it would be handy to have a console similar to the script editor in Maya or the listener in 3ds max to show errors. I have been off deadline for a bit while I have been developing other tools, so may just not be remembering the way in which python script errors are shown/recorded. If anyone can shed some light on this, I would appreciate it as I need to be looking at errors created by python scripts that I am defining. It could also be that the functionality is there, I have just overlooked it.

This is not applicable to plugin events, jobs etc, it is purely to do with incoming script errors.

many thanks.

Hello Malcolm,

Can I ask for a bit more clarification from you on what you are looking for? What errors are you looking to see reported, and in what application and format? The Monitor has a console panel relating to it’s activities, and the Slave has the slave log, which shows what it’s doing. If you can elaborate a bit, that would be awesome.
