UnauthorizedAccessException

Hi there,

I am a new user of Deadline, using it actually in free mode to test it.

I am running it on two machines, trying to render blender jobs.

One is my desktop, with openSUSE 11.1 fresh install, mono 2.4 and Deadline 3.1 SP1
The other is my laptop MacBookPro with OSX 10.5.6, mono 2.4 and Deadline 3.1 SP1

The openSUSE desktop is used as the server for the repository

The repository is installed in /mnt/render/repository

/mnt/render is shared over a NFS service with 192.168.1.1/24(rw)

/mnt/render/repository is chmoded 777 and chowned nobody:nogroup

/mnt/render on the desktop is mounted at /mnt/render on the laptop

I put my blender scenes in /mnt/render/scenes

A slave is launched on the desktop, and another one on the laptop.

Everything goes fine, each slave launch perfectly and find the repository. BUT…

When I submit a Blender job from the desktop, it throws an UnauthorizedAccessException on the laptop but renders on the desktop

When I submit a Blender job from the laptop, it throws an UnauthorizedAccessException on the desktop but renders on the laptop

I’ve read that page and the detailed help how to configure folder rights :

So now I am a bit lost.
Think I will dive a bit more into NFS especially in uid/gid mapping.

So if someone knows another path to solve my puzzle, I will really appreciate that and will be grateful.

Best regards

Nevermind, just found the problem.

Had to map uid/gid of the openSUSE desktop with the NFS options

In my /etc/exports configuration file

/mnt/render 192.168.1.1/24(rw,squash_all,anonuid=1000,anongid=100)

did the trick.

Then the MacBookPro Submit jobs using these uid/gid.

Hope this subject could help someone trying to do the same !
