Photo Generation Problem

[Mzigaib]

I am having problems to generate the photon map, when I try to render just the photon map with a simple scene with just 2 objects mantra always crashes.

I am sending a simple scene that crashes on my computer so you can tell me what I am doing wrong, thanks.

I am still having problem to generate photon from some scenes, I start to render the photons after a while I got an error:

"Command Exit Code: -1073740791"

Does anyone knows what it means?

My scene is just a plane with an object on top of it, I have a light template with a GI shader and a area light to make the shadows, is it a problem to generate photons with the light template with GI shader on the scene?

PS: I am using Houdini 10.0.528

Thanks.

That's an old post, but I rised this error and now mantra seems broken, using Houdini 17.5.173. Does anybody knows any troubleshooting steps?
