Re: jobs failing to delete

If you installed Linux packages, it is SystemD.

Sometimes for an error catching is more easy to launch afserver and afrender manually in terminal.
Such way you can watch logs real-time.

Re: nonrootuser file not found

Hi!
Since 2.3.1 Afanasy Linux packages moved on from init.d to SystemD.
Any service settings now via SystemD.
There are lots of information about how to setup/tune SystemD services.

Re: Error Message When Submitting A Comp Job

Hi.
How are you submitting scenes from 2.8?
CGRU 2.3.1 has no Blender 2.8 support, as they completely rewrote Python API since 2.8.
What submission plug-in have you used?

Re: Houdini ocean geo cache render issues

Re: afrender.service on NFS mount

Hi. Everything is normal. You deploy Afanasy in any custom way. You can write any own init.d/systedm.d service or modify existing. For example, i am not using a nfs share for binaries. And we have such /opt/cgru/config.json: {"cgru_config":{ "include":["/cg/tank/config.json&...
