Lightwave hanging on rendered frames

Deadline
1

Hello frantic folks!

We have been having a problem with Lightwave 9.2 hanging on already rendered frames using both Deadline 2.5 and now 2.7.

It is really eating up our rescources as the machines will not release the frame and move on.  On average each Lightwave submission takes 2-6 machines and hangs onto them until someone "Marks task as complete".

Any suggestions would be much appriciated!

Hi Will,



The next time this occurs, can you copy and paste the contents of the

slave log (from the slave interface) into a text file, save it, and

email it to us? Note to do this BEFORE you mark the task as complete. We

would like to see what lightwave is printing out before it hangs on the

frame to see if there is any useful information that might explain the

problem.



Also, if you are rendering with the Use Screamernet Rendering option

enabled, try rendering with the option disabled (or vice versa) to see

if you notice a difference.



Thanks!
