[SOLVED][FUSION] Deadline 8.1.5.3 and Fusion Studio 8.2.0.2 not playing nice.

Deprecated Deadline 8 Bug Reports
#1

Hi there,

We’ve got a v.simple comp that works on a standard command-line using “FusionConsoleNode.exe”.

When the same command-line (generated by the plugin) tries to render on our Windows 7 Deadline 8.1.5.3 node it fails to render due to the Deadline render thread receiving an “exit code -1073741819” signal before it can get to load and process the comp.

For Fusion 7.7 in Deadline 7.2 we had a work around where we told the plugin to ignore that exit code but that doesn’t work here within Deadline 8.2

CORRECTION:

The old work around we use in Deadline 7.2 ‘does’ work in Deadline 8.1 for both Fusion 7.7 and 8.2. We simply re-added in the ignore the exit code that we were advised to use before.

elif exitCode != -1073741819:

into the fusion.py plugin code

    def CheckExitCode( self, exitCode ):
        if exitCode != 0:
            if exitCode == 10:
                self.FailRender( "Renderer returned error code 10. There was a problem with rendering the comp (see the render log for details), or the process was interrupted by a CTRL-C signal." )
            elif exitCode == 20:
                self.FailRender( "Renderer returned error code 20. There was some problem with the startup - DLLs may be missing, or a problem with a plugin was encountered, or there was a problem obtaining a licence. Check the console slave's output." )
            elif exitCode != -1073741819:
                self.FailRender( "Renderer returned non-zero error code %d. Check the console slave's output." % exitCode )

Cheers

Thanks Jamie. I’ll see if we can add this into Deadline shipping version.

#3

Hi Mike,

Thanks for that. Over on BMD forums the guys there are coming to the same conclusion that it’s a safe to ignore fail.

I believe one poster mentioned that he sees the same problem with Maya when it tries to check out OpenCL libraries on a node with no GPU on board. Still to hear back from BMD on this one myself.

Cheers

#4

Just a quick heads up to say that BMD have been back in touch with us here about this and have been making progress.

Cheers
