Hi, I've a problem sending a usd render to deadline in TOP.
It's working with no problems in H19.5 and H20, but in H20.5 it seems that the scheduler is not reading the remote connection server

When I try to cook the node, I get this error from the scheduler
Deadline SubmitJob error: Error: Could not retrieve NetworkRoot from "Thinkbox\Deadline10\deadline.ini" because it does not exist.

From the deadline documentation [docs.thinkboxsoftware.com] you need the specify a NetworkRoot only if your ConnectionType parameter is set to Direct, but in my deadline.ini is set to Remote...

I've tried to override the type of connection in the deadline scheduler node, but I got this error
Ignoring Deadline command non-json result: b'Error: Encountered the following error when trying to load the specified certificate: Cannot find the requested object. (System.ApplicationException)\r\n'

Any suggestions? thanks
Fabio

I submitted as a bug ,and get reply:
Please try enabling "inherit local environment".
This behavior change is noted in the H20.5 What's New documentation (https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/news/20_5/pdg.html):
The Houdini 20.5 Deadline Scheduler now submits one job per work item as opposed to Houdini 20.0 where the Deadline Scheduler submitted one task per work item.

Fix the problem.

I tried enabling "inherit local environment" but with no luck...
I got the same error
CoreSign did you set something else? Thanks

No more info,just check this under "deadline command envirment" worked for me

I solved it.

I solved it.

How have you solved? Did you just check “inherit local environment”?
In that case I should probably investigate my configuration further…
Are you using direct or remote connection with deadline?
Thanks
