Softimage 2012 Submission bug

[Alcium]

Softimage submission is only partially working here

on the 1st submission script goes fine to the end of the submit
once a scene has already been submited it fails with

INFO : [‘none’, ‘none’, ‘12gb’, ‘12gb’, ‘16gb’, ‘16gb’, ‘24gb’, ‘24gb’, ‘monothreaded’, ‘monothreaded’, ‘nuke_texture’, ‘nuke_texture’]

ERROR : 2000 - Argument 0 (InputObj) is invalid

ERROR : 2001-EDIT-DeleteObj - Argument 0 is invalid

Application.DeleteObj(“Scene_Root.SubmitToDeadline”)

ERROR : The SoftimageToDeadline.py script could not be found in the Deadline Repository. Please make sure that the Deadline Client has been installed on this machine, that the Deadline Client bin folder is set in the DEADLINE_PATH environment variable, and that the Deadline Client has been configured to point to a valid Repository.

so basically we only have one shot to submit from softimage

(note we are still running b8, will update to b9 through the week end)

Thanks for reporting this! It will be fixed in beta 10.

To fix in on your end for now, go to \your\repository\submission\Softimage\Main and open SoftimageToDeadline.py in a text editor. Find this line:

Application.ExecuteCommand("DeleteObj",[str(Application.ActiveSceneRoot) + ".SubmitToDeadline"])

Change it to this:

Application.ExecuteCommand("DeleteObj",[str(Application.ActiveSceneRoot) + ".SubmitSoftimageToDeadline"])

Restart Softimage, and you should be good to go!

Cheers,

Found it, but did not restart, I thought Softimage was directly reading from repository, not from cache …

I’ll restart next time (and inform of course )
