Deadline

Hello, I got this error when dropping Deadline node in Houdini 19.5.569 / Rocky Linux 9.1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “Driver/deadline, opdef:/Driver/deadline?PreFirstCreate”, line 13, in
File “/home/tang/houdini19.5/python3.9libs/CallDeadlineCommand.py”, line 46, in CallDeadlineCommand

raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘deadlinecommand’

Any idea ?

Thank you in Advance !

deadlinecommand is not in your $PATH
I think the installer should do this, but just in case you need to add it
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/Deadline10/... (replace with the correct path)

Hello @Tanguy_BODIVIT check what is DEADLINE_PATH environment variable set to for the user running the render process. You can also try to set this environment on the job for testing Deadline Monitor> Job’s right menu> Modify Job preparties> Environment - set the key to DEADLINE_PATH and value to opt/Thinkbox/Deadline10/bin/

Thank you, I am trying that now !
Nice that worked tiptop, using
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/Thinkbox/Deadline10/bin

So it looks like the installer did not add the path. But when installing on 8.7 I never had this issue, probably a finesse in 9.1 preventing it

Any idea how to bypass the libffi.so.6 / core dumped ?
would save my life from reverting to 8.7 :slight_smile:
