Monitor 'Configure Repository Options' not opening after upgrading to Deadline 10.4.1.6

After upgrading to Deadline 10.4.1.6, the “Configure Repository Options” window in Monitor no longer opens.
However, it works fine when using Monitor from version 10.4.0.13.

I’m running on Windows 11 Pro (24H2).
The Monitor console shows the following traceback when I attempt to open the dialog:

Do you have any ideas or suggestions on how to resolve this issue?
Any insights would be appreciated. Thank you!

I’ve not come across this, but it’s usually worth clearing out the temp folders (rename/move and relaunch)

C:\Users\Antg\AppData\Local\Thinkbox\Deadline10

as it may have cached something, I think there were some breaking changes to the UI at some point but I thought this was 10.3>10.4

I tried renaming the directory C:\Users\Antg\AppData\Local\Thinkbox\Deadline10 and restarting, but the issue was not resolved.
I then downgraded both the Deadline Client and Repository to version 10.4.0.13, and everything worked correctly.
After that, I upgraded only the Repository to 10.4.1.6 while continuing to use Monitor 10.4.0.13 to connect, and I was able to open the “Configure Repository Options” menu.
So for now, I plan to monitor the situation with this setup.

set_LicenseEndpointDNSNames.py (750 Bytes)

If you haven’t got this sorted out yet, could you try running this script? It worked on my machine, run it in a command prompt "%deadline_path%"\deadlinecommand -ExecuteScript set_LicenseEndpointDNSNames.py.

i had similar issue:
windows updated during render seasson and corrupted repository file.

what helped:
backup mongo data folder

run this comant in powershell - it automaticly runs througt all repository files and repairs corrupted:
& “C:\DeadlineDatabase10\mongo\application\bin\mongod.exe” --dbpath “C:\DeadlineDatabase10\mongo\data” --repair
