Scan for Missing Files - Error

Hello Everyone!

I ran into a problem with the “Scan for Missing Output” option. Sometimes it works great as intended (Screenshot 1) but sometimes it doesn’t work (Screenshot 2). It looks like the frame suffix (eg. _0002) was changed into the suffix _job

Any idea where to look at to fix this?

Thanks in advance and have a great time!

Short introduction to myself: This is my first post in this forum. I am a 3D artist freelancer and also working as a trainer in a training center were we use Deadline to manage our students render jobs.


Hey,

Can you share a job report or two from the one where the files were output with the wrong file name? Also, can you take a screenshot of the settings page of the job properties so we can see what is supposed to happen? Thanks.

Hello,

unfortunately we do not have the original log file anymore. I will send a log file as soon as the issue occurs again as it did in the past.

Have a great time,

Hello,

If you can also make sure to add the output to the jobs, this should allow you to properly scan for missing output, as then Deadline will know where the files should be. Look forward to logs if this comes up again.
