I have been rendering frames from Houdini Solaris with Redshift on a local (single computer) installation with Deadline. All of a sudden I am getting an error. I can see from the worker logs that the actual rendering is happening fine, but when it comes to write the file, I get this error:
Error: Failed to create file “pass : Permission denied”.

I’m not sure why this has just started happening when it was working fine before. I am able to render directly out of Houdini, but that means I obviously can’t queue things up.
I have tried reinstalling the Deadline Client on my machine, but same problem. Anyone know what’s going on here?
Using Deadline 10.4.0.8
Houding 20.5.410
Redshift 2025.2.2
Thanks!
