If I set a Houdini project with the output like this, it renders fine but fails the Quickdraft
\server\tests\houdini\render$HIPNAME.mantra1.0001.exr
It fails searching for the EXR as the variable seems to remove the trailing slash
\server\tests\houdini\render$HIPNAME.mantra1.0001.exr
Works fine with absolute path names
I have a ticket open about this
