Nuke viewerProcess: None

Hello there

We are having some issues rendering a Nuke script in Deadline.
We keep getting this error:

Error: FailRenderException : [14:54.32] ERROR: Bad value for viewerProcess : None

We have a viewerProcess registered in the init file, but have disabled this. We’ve tried deleting it as well.

#nuke.ViewerProcess.register("PROJECT_LUT",nuke.Node, ("PROJECT_LUT", ""))
#nuke.ViewerProcess.register("PROJECT_13_ABCD_SHOT",nuke.Node, ("PROJECT_13_ABCD_SHOT", ""))

Is there anyone here that might know how to fix this? Thanks!

I can’t help on the Nuke script side of things, so this is all a little more generic troubleshooting. Does the script work outside of Deadline on that machine? Since Deadline is failing the render when it sees a line starting with Error: it might be wrongly killing the task early?

In the task report there should be a line that starts with ‘Full Command’ that has what Deadline is running. Use that command in a terminal on the render node and see if it behaves the same.
