ERROR : FailRenderException | Houdini 19.5.303 + Deadline 10.2.0.8

Deadline

Hi All,

I am getting some errors when submitting from Houdini to deadline. I have another machine setup the same way and its rendering just fine. Not sure why this other one is flagging with these errors. Anyone run into this issue?

Thanks, Anthony, I double-checked my python folders and I noticed I had a 2.7 version. I removed that folder and only left 3.7 (3.9). I also uninstalled Houdini 19.5.403. For some reason it continued to pull up the missmatched redshift SDK. But now everything seams to be working with the main machine. I only have one more machine left with an issue.

This is what I get now on my laptop.

Looking at the logs above, it seems like Houdini failed the task on some plugin “Prism2”. Did you try isolating the submission from Deadline and see if you get the same behavior outside it. You can run the below command on the render node and check if you get the same error:

“C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 19.5.303\bin\hython.exe” “<hrender_dl.py>” -f 127 127 1 -o “$HIP/render/$HIPNAME.$OS.$F4.exr” -g -d /out/Redshift_ROP1 -tempdir “C:\ProgramData\Thinkbox\Deadline10\workers\Laptop-RTX3000\jobsData\637668293f09b2c9fee039ca\0_tempL6Vid0” -arnoldAbortOnLicenseFail 1 “P:/00_CLIENTS/GAMUT/2022/INTEL/OPEN-VINO/3D/HOU/OpenVino/03_Production/Assets/CacheSurf/Scenefiles/cpt/Concept/Concept_v0001.hiplc”

You might need to replace the <hrender_dl.py> with <[repo]\plugins\houdini\hrender_dl.py> in the command.

This error comes from the Prism pipeline, running inside houdini on the laptop. The expected filename was empty.
Not sure if you want Prism to be active while on the farm at all.
