Renderman errors

Berkyjay · October 24, 2018, 4:47pm

I’m doing a straight of out the box attempt at a Renderman for Maya render. I’m using the stock submission scripts from Deadline. When I run a Maya render job set to use PRman I get the following error:

2018-10-24 09:34:32: 0: STDOUT: Error: file: C:/Users/render/AppData/Local/Temp/tmp2D5B.tmp line 8: Plug-in, &quot;RenderMan_for_Maya&quot;, was not found on MAYA_PLUG_IN_PATH.

2018-10-24 09:34:32: 0: STDOUT: Error: file: C:/Users/render/AppData/Local/Temp/tmp2D5B.tmp line 41: Render failed.

tmp2D5B.zip (1014 Bytes)

Edit:
I realized that I didn’t put any relevant into here:

Win7
Deadline Client Version: 10.0.12.1 Release (1281798c0)
Renderman for Maya v22.2

Is it Renderman 22?

Berkyjay · October 24, 2018, 7:22pm

Hey Edwin! Thanks! So there are like 5 instances of that line of code. I’m safe with commenting them all out?

Edit:

Good news, that worked and Deadline is rendering the jobs. Bad news, I’m not getting any file output. I don’t think the two are related. I’ll do some internal debugging before I escalate it.

eamsler · October 25, 2018, 2:05pm

Five you say? I see one instance of “rmanCreateAllGlobalsNodes” in MayaBatch…

Want to give us a call today and we’ll hack on it a bit? Usual number, you can grab it from here.

It’s been 3 days since I broke my head, I have more or less trying everything, but Renderman has a too lot change between 21 and 22 and I think we must review the entire script launch rendering.

Hello!

I had a customer report that they were able to get MayaCMD/Renderman working. They had to modify/comment out a few lines.

Change line 417:

-r rman

to

-r renderman

Comment out line 426, 441, and 842.

#rendererArguments += " -n " + self.GetPluginInfoEntryWithDefault( “MaxProcessors”, “0” )

#commonArguments += StringUtils.BlankIfEitherIsBlank( StringUtils.BlankIfEitherIsBlank( " -im "", outputFilePrefix ), “"” )

File to modify:

“DeadlineRepository10\plugins\MayaCmd\MayaCmd.py”

To use MayaCMD you will need to turn off Batch in the Maya integrated submitter.

eamsler · October 25, 2018, 4:00pm

Update here now from my call with @Berkyjay, here are some possible workarounds:

For now, we’ve only had success working around the problem how @cmoore has outlined it above. This only supports rendering when “use batch mode” has been disabled.
I’m not sure how this may work, but submitting a “Rib export” job type would be good to know (@Berkyjay is going to try this).
Downgrade to Renderman 21.

On our call, it seemed that the option to “Batch render” from within Maya does not work and it exited. Has anyone managed to batch render without Tractor on their local workstations? I’d want to see the output from the script editor to see what magical Melscript/Python was called to get things working.

Berkyjay · October 25, 2018, 4:25pm

OK so I did a quick render test with Charles’ changes with Batch turned off. Unfortunately it errored out.

Next I ran a “Renderman Export” job from the submitter. This failed as well with what seems like the same error.

Did you use the file I attached or did you make the changes manually. Not sure why &quote is popping up in the commandline arguments here. Most likely the cause.

Berkyjay · October 25, 2018, 5:36pm

I used the file you provided. I also am putting all the edited plugins into the Custom directory.

Berkyjay · October 25, 2018, 5:56pm

OK, some good news in the RIB export front. I was able to successfully render a frame by exporting a RIB manually from Maya. Then using the Renderman submitter through the Monitor I submitted a render job using that exported rib file. It’s not super intuitive doing the RIB export but once you know where to do it, it’s straight forward.

I think I actually prefer this method of rendering Renderman versus going through Maya to do it. It seems like a lot less overhead and less things to debug if something goes wrong. I’ll probably look into developing tools to streamline the process.

Oh I also forgot to mention. I had to comment out this piece of code in the Renderman.py plugin:

initialRibFilename = self.SubstituteFrameFolderNumber( initialRibFilename, self.GetStartFrame() )

I’m not sure what the original purpose of that code was. But it was returning a rib file name that was versioned up, which was then fed into the Renderman executable argument. This resulted in the job failing because it was looking for a file name that didn’t exist.

hi Berkyjay to fix the error 208 you juste need put C:\Program Files\Pixar\RenderManForMaya-22.2\etc\rendermanRenderer.xml to C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2018\bin\rendererDesc

You looking for a solution or you just ignored us? We have 20 people who can not work today! We pay for a service that does not work. The least thing would be to tell us if you are looking for a solution or not. That I know if we cancel our subscription, for another solution that works, or not.

Edit :
I’m sorry, I get a little upset, but understand our situation which becomes critical with the passing days

I found workaround for use MayaCmd with renderman 22.2 .
As Cmoore said change Change line 417:

-r rman

to

-r renderman

And comment this line 426, 441, 842, 836 and 844 :

#rendererArguments += " -n " + self.GetPluginInfoEntryWithDefault( “MaxProcessors”, “0” )

#commonArguments += StringUtils.BlankIfEitherIsBlank( StringUtils.BlankIfEitherIsBlank( " -im “”, outputFilePrefix ), “”" )

#commonArguments += StringUtils.BlankIfEitherIsBlank( " -rd "", StringUtils.BlankIfEitherIsBlank( renderDirectory, “"” ) )

#commonArguments += StringUtils.BlankIfEitherIsBlank( StringUtils.BlankIfEitherIsBlank( " -cam "", self.GetPluginInfoEntryWithDefault( “Camera”, “”) ), “"” )

And this work again

Hey Brice,

Renderman has quite a few changes with release 22 that we need to look into. Renderman 22 is not supported yet but I can assure you the it is not being ignored. In the meantime workarounds are the best option we can provide.

Please don’t hesitate to call support if you are in a critical situation where production has been halted.

It seems like something is wrong with my script so I have removed it. I’m happy those changes to the plugin worked out for you. Please let us know if continued testing goes successfully with this solution.

Regards,

Charles

I found one big flaw with my RIB export idea. Our server space would take a huge hit rendering this way.

Hey Brice,

I tried your fixes for the MayaCmd.py but I’m still getting errors. How are you launching your jobs? Are you using the integrated submitter through Maya?

Yes , what is your error ? Do you have uncheck use Maya batch plugin in submiter , and lunch in maya job not in Renderman Export job ?
