Linux machine without stdout

Deadline

Hi, I have a few linux machine on our farm that don’t output any STDOUT line during render/simulation
The same machines always have this behavior. some will always output the STDOUT some will not.

I have noticed this only during Houdini simulation or render on some machine.

Anyone have a clue why this would happen?

thanks

same problem here… :frowning:

If you reboot those machines, do they work again? If so, I’d bet that AsyncStdout is to blame.

I modified the plugin to set these options in the

def InitializeProcess( self ): self.StdoutHandling = True self.AsynchronousStdout = False self.StdoutRedirection = True

and without any reboot of the slaves machine they all properly capture STDOUT now.

This is fantastic.

Thanks

Soon, soon Deadline will ship with this on by default!

Funny, but Deadline 8 ships with a much newer Mono which probably solves this problem anyway.
