Houdini 19.5 deadline error runing python code

Deadline
1

hi,

i got houdini 19.5 and deadline working on the workstation fine, using the trick of copying /python3.7libs and renaming to /python3.9libs, as i said this works submitting from my workstation and doing the job with out errors on the same workstation, but sending the job to my other 2 houdini engine computers gets me this error:

any ideas what is happeing? using deadline 10.1.20.3 , works fine with h18.0/18.5/19.0

a bit lost with this one :frowning:

Do you have the plugin installed with the python39libs folder on the rendering machine? as they’ll also need it.

If you just submit via the menu, it doesn’t need the Deadline plugin. BUT if you use the nodes in /out then the render machines also need the deadline plugin configured so they can read these /out/deadline1 nodes

3

Sounds like a python version mismatch. Crypto is using some syntax that is invalid in the running python (presumably Deadline’s).

4

tried sending the job via the menu, same exact error… :thinking:

5

but if you have deadline nodes in /out it’ll still require the plugin installing on the rendernodes, even if you use the menu.

Are they both using 19.5.303 py39 installs? arey the both using matching Deadline versions?

6

ah, yes. it was a HDA i have been carrying on my env file since H18, as the render nodes are using H Engine i did not find the error sa i would just by opening houdini…it works fine now! :grin:
