Rendering doesn't work after upgrading to 3.3

3.3 client and 3.2 server

Hi, Should a client with CGRU 3.3 be able to connect with 3.2 server? Or do they all need to have the same version? I've just updated one workstation/render node to 3.3 (for Ubuntu 22.04) and the server (Ubuntu 20.04) doesn't see it anymore. Also I can't open Watch on that workstation anymore, altho...

Central settings for CGRU Keeper

Hi!

I'm trying to set up a multiuser environment, and apparently for each new user that logs in to a system CGRU settings are set to default.
Is there a way to have a central configuration that would be used by all system users?

Thanks,
Lukas

Re: Custom command for launching software

I've launched Keeper from terminal, to see what it's doing when launching software.
Aparrently it's not executing the shell script which I've created and set as the executable for NukeX, but simply it's running "nuke --nukex"

Custom command for launching software

Hi, I'm working on Ubuntu which is not set to English, and because of that one Nuke plugin has a problem with commas and dots, and in the result it's causing an error. A workaround is to launch Nuke with: LC_NUMERIC="C" ./Nuke12.0 To launch NukeX I have created a shell script: #! LC_NUMERI...

Re: Adding custom parameters when calling software

Nice, thanks for the suggestion.

BTW, the submision plugin doesn't work with latest Blender version 3.0.1. It installs but returns errors while trying to submit a job.

Adding custom parameters when calling software

Hi,

Apparently Blender, when rendering in headless mode, is not using any GPU. There's a solution by adding some paremeters and calling external python script. But how can I change how Afanasy is starting Blender, and add custom parameters?

Thanks,
Lukas

Re: Dailies / Moviemaker problem

OK, problem solved - partially. Apparently when my render client machine is on the login screen, then Dailies are rendered correctly. But if I login, as a user to this machine, then they fail.
The render client is also a render server.

Dailies / Moviemaker problem

Hi, I have a problem rendering video files from Nuke. Everything works fine when I render image sequences, but when I use Dailies node, I get this: MakeMovie: "/opt/cgru/utilities/moviemaker/makemovie.py" /media/VFX/QoC/shots/QoC_S01E01_VFX_0036/export/EXR/QoC_S01E01_VFX_0036_comp_v03_####...
