Tridae Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Greetings, I've had some down time and decided I'd attempt to get HQueue to work on the couple of machines we have here. NOPE. Somehow I can get the Server set up on a machine and the Client on that same machine will register in the web interface but none of the other machines will register. All windows 7 machines, all clean installs of HQueue client and Server. Can someone make a HQueue setup for idiots? I've read through the official instructions it doesn't really offer anything other than the bare basics of what to install. Example of my setup now - Server-PC 192.168.0.1 running server and a client, client works fine it seems. Port 5000 Slave01-PC 192.168.0.2 running just the client, and installed and pointed to "Server-PC" in the ini. What am I doing wrong? Is there anything else I HAVE to have installed? Am I missing a step? The guide makes it seem as though that's all I need to do. Both systems have working versions of Houdini on them already.

Tridae Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 Ok. Now I feel even worse. For anybody encountering these same issues. DISABLE YOUR FIREWALL. So simple, flicking the switch on the firewall for the server seemed to fix all my issues. All the clients register now, humming along happily. . . . now to go and purchase a new dunce cap for myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeLetellier Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I've read through the official instructions... My turn to wear the dunce cap: where are the official instructions? I can't for the life of me find them in the documentation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourfather Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 It's in the same place as all of the other documentation. http://www.sidefx.com/docs http://www.sidefx.com/docs/hqueue14.0/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeLetellier Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Ah, I understand now. There's a completely separate set of documentation for Hqueue. If you're in Houdini itself and click Help --> Contents, you're unnable to search through Hqueue help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SESI should do a once-over on all the HQueue documentation and links, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
