Im using win machine as a server and linux as a worker. Have no clue where is the problem )) Please help!

The worker does not know where deadlinecommand is. You could add the path to it in the PATH environment variable, e.g. sys.path.append("/var/lib/Thinkbox/Deadline10/bin") in JobPreLoad of the Houdini plugin.

Hi! After some research I found where problem is, but asking for help to find solution. So, we are using a lot of assets created for older version of redshift, and when it happends, redshift terminates render untill you are running this command

Redshift_disableRaiseExceptionOnRenderError

then redshift ignore version mismatch and continue rendering…
I try it using hbatch command line rendering

But how to add this command before starting render?

Thanx for advice, but unfortunately this doesn’t work in my case, as I wrote, the problem isnt in plugin path, if I create new simple scene than everything works fine.
