New installs of Houdini 20, Redshift, Deadline 10.3.2.1

Hi,

After wrapping up some projects we have upgraded Deadline to the latest version, and upgraded houdini to 20.0.653

We successfully added the patch to submit to deadline thanks to this post. Houdini 20 Patch files - #23 by brycegbrazen

The job submits successfully, but we are getting the following error report.

Any advice - bit stumped.? Thankyou

Hello @Dan_Barker

Seems like a permissions issue. Could you follow here to isolate the render from Deadline?

Thanks for the responce @zainali .
After going nuclear, and re-installing plugins and tools step by step - the root was a custom houdini asset (hda/osl) - which one though, im not sure. The are many legacy ones which ive separated from the houdini 20 install via the env file.

Cheers.

There is a parser, which is trying to write a file, presumably some parsed definitions.
What user is Houdini running as? Is it an administrator?

Old thread, but i’m just running into a similar error after updating to Houdini 20.5, deadline 10.4.0.10 and Redshift 2025.1.1

=======================================================

Error

=======================================================

Error: 'const uint8_t*'

at Deadline.Plugins.PluginWrapper.RenderTasks(Task task, String& outMessage, AbortLevel& abortLevel)

The logs also show permission denied to lextab.py

I have no idea whats causing this. I’m following the suggestions above to try and figure it out.

So far have tried:
1 - running houdini as admin
2 - removing all HDA’s

after removing all our HDA’s from HSITE this issue resolved itself, still not sure which asset is causing the issue. If i figure it out i’ll drop a note here
