JulesGuerin Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Hello, I'm stucked, I think I managed to install and configure Hqueue correctly. This is what I do: -Plug a HQrender node after mantra's -Submit Job then Open HQueue The Job is submitted but after 3sec. it fails and the worst part is I don't know how to check what's wrong… If i click on the Job id number, it opens the Job details window but I can't see any “output log” to download. If I go in the Clients window, i can see that my Client machine is recognized with Avaibality set to Any @anytime. The server machine is a macpro 3,7 GHz Quad-Core Xeon E5, the client is an Imac 3,2 GHz Intel Core i3 Any idea where to start to resolve the problem? Thanks!!

JulesGuerin Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) I kind of solved a part of the problem but now I have this: The Houdini 17.0.352 environment has been initialized. Loading .hip file /Users/JULES/Dropbox/PROJECTS/HOUDINI/Hqueue_test.hipnc. ERROR: Cannot find file /Users/JULES/Dropbox/PROJECTS/HOUDINI/Hqueue_test.hipnc It seems it's still looking for the HIP file on the client machine. Weird because both machines (client and server) have the file located at the same place via dropbox..

JulesGuerin Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 Ok, I think I will try to explain how things are setu pand see I can get some precious help My server-workstation have the shared folder located at /Users/JULES/Documents/PROJECTS This PROJECT folder is mounted on my client machine at the root of the shared volume. This is specified in the hqserver.ini file like this: hqserver.sharedNetwork.path.macosx = /Users/JULES/Documents/PROJECTS hqserver.sharedNetwork.mount.macosx = /Volumes/PROJECTS On the client machine, in the HQClient folder, i modified the hqnode.ini file to point to this [main] server = Mac-Pro-de-Jules.local port = 5000 sharedNetwork.mount = /Volumes/PROJECTS [job_environment] Though the client still doesn't find the HIP file.

ikoon Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I had difficulties when I had PC addresses defined as names. Now I have everything set as IP numbers and it works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I changed the addresses to be as IP numbers but haven't had success Strange thing is that it's trying to point to a folder that is not the correct folder anymore... The Houdini 17.0.352 environment has been initialized. Loading .hip file /Users/JULES/Dropbox/PROJECTS/HOUDINI/Hqueue_test.hipnc. ERROR: Cannot find file /Users/JULES/Dropbox/PROJECTS/HOUDINI/Hqueue_test.hipnc But in the hqserver.ini I've changed this shared folder to be hqserver.sharedNetwork.path.macosx = /Users/JULES/Documents/PROJECTS I'm confused! Is there any other place than the hqserver.ini file where I should check if it's pointing to the correct shared folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikoon Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 There is the hqnode.ini on the client computer, but afaik client should "read" info from the hqserver.ini and update itself Are you following this? http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/hqueue/installation.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
