Nuke error with write node inside a group

Deadline
1

We are using deadline 10. When a write node is inside a group node the UI does not open. Gives error that is so common issue. I know it is fixed long ago, however, it still occurs. :unamused:

How should one find a workaround for this problem?

please reply.

Thank you

What versions of nuke/deadline? Is this a py3 issue?

deadline version 10
currently on nuke version 12.2v5, but it occurs to have been an issue
with all nuke version.

py3 ?. Could be, donā€™t know.
How does one find out, if py3 is an issue ?

Nuke 13.0 onward uses py3.

But this sounds like a bug in the submitter. Could you post the error? (sorry no time to test this right now)

When you mention

ā€œI know it is fixed long agoā€

Is that fixed in Deadline or Nuke? Also why I was asking which version, 10 could be 10.0.0.0 or 10.1.20.3, at which point you could check the release notes to see if there was a fix

ā€œI know it is fixed long agoā€ means iā€™ve read other tickets where this was an issue but fixed in Deadline 5.

We are using Deadline Client Version 10.1.9.2
Repository Version ā€¦ 10.1.9.2
Integration Version ā€¦ 10.1.9.2

From a scene file that has write node inside a group node, the error is

ā€œNo enabled write nodes were detected. Do you still wish to submit this job to Deadlineā€, yes

error is ā€œcould not write sticky settingsā€.

FYI: Pool and Group are disabled

Nothing gets submitted to the deadline farm.

While this is the case on my machine. Other folks around me have been able to submit to farm ( long ago ). Being a holiday, let me update this ticket with error that they got on a Monday.

Happy Weekend.

I donā€™t know really, it could be that your submitter was not updated?
You could check submission/Nuke/Main/SubmitNukeToDeadline.py around line 1587 to see if this comment is present:

    if dialog.separateJobs.value():
        #we need the fullName of the node here, otherwise write nodes that are embedded in groups won't work
        fileHandle.write( "WriteNode=%s\n" % node.fullName() )

@mois.moshev , the SubmitNukeToDeadline.py that i have access to has 587 lines and no comment ā€œwe need the fullname of the node here ā€¦ā€ is present in this script.

only mention is

fileHandle.write( ā€œWriteNode=%s\nā€ % node.name() )

on line 241

So there you have it - your version of the submitter is old. Install a new one from the repo.
