Standalone Python API Set-Up

[dpost.py]

Hello,

I’m following the “Set-Up” section of this page discussing the Standalone Python API:
https://docs.thinkboxsoftware.com/products/deadline/7.1/1_User%20Manual/manual/standalone-python.html

I’ve already moved the API .py files into my Python site-packages folder. But when I try to run the first line of the example given in the “Authenticating” section, which is this:

from Deadline.DeadlineConnect import DeadlineCon as Connect

I get an error saying that the module named “Jobs” cannot be found. But it exists in the Deadline folder in my site-packages folder.

Why is this happening?

Thanks.

To fix this issue, I just did what @im_thatoneguy did in this post:

Python API Package

So… I added the deadline API to my sys.path: import sys sys.path.append(r'\\sfs-file\deadlinerepository6\api\python') import Deadline However I don’t think it’s being imported as a package. If I then try: Deadline.DeadlineConnect() I get: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#44>", line 1, in <module> Deadline.DeadlineConnect AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'DeadlineConnect'

But the issue I’m having now is when I try to do anything after I make the DeadlineCon object, it says:
http.client.RemoteDisconnected: Remote end closed connection without response

I’m pretty sure I have the correct host name and port number, and I do not have authentication enabled. What am I missing?

Thanks
