Natron

[ramellij]

Hi Timur,

I have problems trying to render a Natron project : my Workstation doesn't start rendering and every render nodes freeze at the middle of the first task group. I have those outputs :

for the Workstation :

Getting task output: Can't get file: c:/temp/afanasy\jobs\0\2.natron_test.ntp\tasks\0.6\output\3.txt No such file or directory Check task log. If there is 'update timeout' check firewall. Client should listen a port and server should be able to connect to it.

on every nodes :

Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 2, in File "C:/Program Files/INRIA/Natron-2.0.0-RC3/Plugins/PySide/init.py", line 41, in _setupQtDirectories() File "C:/Program Files/INRIA/Natron-2.0.0-RC3/Plugins/PySide/init.py", line 9, in _setupQtDirectories from . import _utils ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package

Do you know what it means? Do I need to refer to Natron's guys ? Thanks for your help JR

[timurhai]

Hi. I have not checked RC3, yet. Give me some time for it. For now you can run task command simple in a console. ( to request task command you can double-click task (to request job tasks you can double-click job))

ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package

Is already being reported at https://github.com/MrKepzie/Natron/issues/983, which is also a warning and don't stop the renders.

[timurhai]

Hi. I tried RC3 on windows and it works! I also noticed the same warning message in a tasks output, but there is no error: zero exit status and a good result (picture looks fine).

Where you saw that error output? Also where you saw "Getting task output: Can't get file:..."? Strange situation, if task was started and produced some output, server should save it to a file, but later it can't get it. If task was not really started, check firewall on a windows client machine. ( afanasy clients listen a port too, so client firewall can block task from server )

[ramellij]

On the first try I have this error for every node and workstation : "ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package". It renders the first task correctly but doesn't jump to the next. Then I tryed to debug relanching all first node task and then I got "Getting task output: Can't get file:..." only for my workstation, my clients reacting as before.

[ramellij]

I reinstalled completly Afanasy and now I just have the first python warning and as before it renders my first task but can't jump to the next and in the afWatch it shows me some unrelated percentages (wich are freezed too) :

[timurhai]

It seems to be some other Afanasy error. Does it happen only if you are using Natron? (try other software, Blender for example) Try to see afrender and afserver logs, may be some error info there.

[ramellij]

It works for After Effect. And except "windows must die" I don't see specific info in logs ;)

[ramellij]

On server I have this : " ERROR Wed 11 Nov 14:12.33: AFCommon : writeFile: c:/temp/afanasy\jobs\0\3.test21\data.json No such file or directory " I cheked and the file is there. Testing on my laptop everything worked. Maybe I need to clean some temporary folders.

[ramellij]

OK My test with Natron was simply to read a sequence EXR and convert it in a JPG sequence. I tryed from PNG to JPG and it worked ! Maybe it's related to thumbnails...

[timurhai]

You can remove exr from this array: https://github.com/CGRU/cgru/blob/master/afanasy/config_default.json#L147

ps Remember, you should not modify that file (config_default.json), any overrides should be in cgru/config.json

[ramellij]

it changes nothing. I have this in render log : "AFERROR : TaskProcess : AssignProcessToJobObject failed with code = 5.

[ramellij]

and then in loop : "Warning : Task stopping time > 10 seconds. KILLING NOT TERMINATED TASK."

[timurhai]

Hi. Strange security politics: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms681382(v=vs.85).aspx It seems that afrender has not enough rights of AssignProcessToJobObject. This is needed to kill process with all its spawned childs by killing a job. Afrender kills task process on job stop(deletion), restart, or when parser parsed some error message. If you does not delete or restart job(task) and task has no error in the output this should not happen.

What is the entire afrender output from start to the first error?

btw, what OS(and version) are you using?

[ramellij]

I'm on windows 7 64 bit with your last release 2.0.7. The afrender log :

[timurhai]

Hi. And where is the error? Can you reproduce the error with the minimum movements? ( and afserver and afrender are win7-64 ? )

[timurhai]

"AssignProcessToJobObject":

• try to launch afrender as administrator

[ramellij]

Everynodes have the same OS. I get same result launching as admin but without the error mentionned above.

[timurhai]

hm, i don`t see any error in your latest log. Can you reproduce the error with the minimum movements (from afrender restart) ? ( and provide full afrender log )

now i don`t know what is the error we are looking for:

• "AssignProcessToJobObject"
• "If there is 'update timeout' check firewall."
• "ValueError: Attempted relative import in non-package"
• "KILLING NOT TERMINATED TASK"

What "reproduce the error with the minimum movements" is:

• restart everything ( afrender, afserver, natron)
• run the simplest job ( project )
• get the error
• provide afserver and afrender logs, task log and ouput (4 different texts) ( task log and output you cat get from afwatch )

Task log is afserver movements log, it should be like

Thu 12 Nov 12:26.51 : SESSION #1: Starting on "compname"
Thu 12 Nov 12:27.03 : Finished success.

[ramellij]

Ok The test is made only with my workstation : afserver and afrender run as administrator A simple Natron project to convert exr in jpg (again it works for png to jpg)

So, it works? If yes, try to remove "jpg" extension from thumbnails. I see a bug, that afrender tries to generate thumbnail several time while task is still running. Then try Afanasy again.

[ramellij]

from the beginning it rendered all frames in my first task, the problem is it never jumped to the next. The percentage bar was always wrong. I removed exr, jpg and jpeg extensions from thumbnails in a new config.json AND in the default config to test and there is no change.

[timurhai]

No change? The output is the same? Afrender still tries to generate thumbnails?

[timurhai]

Such Afrender output tells that it is generating a thumbnail:

convert -identify "\workstation-pc\renderfarm\test\rendus_test_0001.jpg" -thumbnail "100x100^" -gravity center -extent 100x100 -colorspace sRGB "c:\temp\afanasy\tasks\2.0.0_1\rendus_test_0001.jpg.jpg"

[ramellij]

same outputs... I know Natron's guys have made a big change in the EXR reader to improve its speed. Could it be related. Can I try without thumbnails ?

[timurhai]

This line in a config without exr and jpg should disable thumbnails: "af_thumbnail_extensions":["exr","dpx","jpg","jpeg","png","tif","tiff","tga"], Where is your config.json is located? And what is in there? Can you try keeper "Show Info..." action to test your config files?

It seems that everything is OK. btw, You should restart afrender on a config change, it loads config files only once, have you?

[ramellij]

yes I have

[timurhai]

Very strange ) But! I have just fixed a bug, that afrender tries to generate thumbnails, while task is running. You can try a new version: http://rules.cgru.info/#/downloads/testing

[ramellij]

same results

Afrender output is completely different. It does not try to generate any thumbnails. And process is finished with a non-zero exit status. What are task log and output?

this render output says that task "frame 1-10" was started 4 times, and task "frame 11-20" 2 times, but task log Thu 12 Nov 12:36.05 : SESSION #1: Starting on "workstation-pc" says that it was started only once and still running Are you sure that render log and task log&ouput are from the same situation?

Now i do not understand what is going on. Try an example from CGRU (cgru/examples/natron) You can run it directly from keeper "Software -> Examples -> Natron"

[ramellij]

Yes the previous render log and task log&ouput are from the same situation. your example renders correctly

[timurhai]

Try to change project, we should know what project effects cause this error. For example, read png and save jpg, or something.

Every time server ask task to start/stop or task has finished itself(error or success), server make a new line in the task log.

[ramellij]

there are no effect in my comp : just a reader for a EXR sequence and a writer to export in jpg

After restart everything : afrender output :

This is what I have :

[timurhai]

hm, try to read some png instead of exr

[ramellij]

with png it works perfect :

[timurhai]

hm, i should try to read exr's too (give me some time, right now i can't test), but if image file type plays such role, probably it is some Natron bug.

[ramellij]

yes of course

[timurhai]

Also you can try to enable thumbnails back, one bug with its early generation already fixed in 2.0.8

please include @ip in quotes :smile:

Hi Timur, Just to say that I'm testing Fusion too and I got same result as Natron : trying to load EXR and save it in JPG it renders the first task in loop. And when I use PNG instead of EXR it works. There is definitely something going wrong with EXR.

[timurhai]

Hi. What does it mean that it "renders first task in loop"? You should provide task log. "Loop" means that 1st task was started, finished error, restarted, finished error, restarted, finished error ... Until host appears in an error host list or task error retries limit reached? This means that task process finished with a non zero exit status. This means some error. May be it even printed in the task output.

Afanasy just run commands, no matter what that command do natron or fusion, read pngs or exrs. So if it does not generate thumbnails, it does no nothing about any result file type, exr or not.

I just tried natron to read exr and save jpg, task does not finishes at all for me, and even no matter whether i read exr or png, only if there is no reader in the project, command can finish.

So, natron command does not finishes. Fusion - some error - see task output.

When you tried run afanasy task command in windows terminal, command finishes? For me - not. Afanasy (afrender) waits for process finish, of course.
