Mixed Farm, Deadline Path Mapping Issue

DerQualle · 8 September 2025 08:08

Hi there!
First off, I’m very new to Ayon and pipelines in general, but I’ve been playing around with the docker image over the weekend and had a lot of fun so far.
Currently im struggling to get my linux render slave to pick up jobs from deadline that are submitted by a windows machine.

Rendering on the Windows machine works perfectly fine with no issues. The Linux machine always throws this error:

=======================================================
Error
=======================================================
Error: Renderer returned non-zero error code, 1. Check the log for more information.

It looks like the linux client is trying to access the windows path.
Here are my roots, the look correct:

I’m publishing a USD Render from Houdini.
I have SiteSync on, but both clients are set to studio:studio.
Initially I thought it might had to do with me not having the USD Addon installed, but after installing and enabling these settings, I still get the same issue:

Currently there are no mapped paths or drives in deadline.
Interestingly, If I create a path mapping like this:

The Linux node can render without issues, but then the Windows machine is also using the linux path, writing the files to:

C:\mnt\user\Farm\test_project\test\folder\work\fx\render

which makes no sense to me at all Of course the publishing task afterwards fails because AYON cant find the EXRs in the project directory.

At last out of interest I added a secondary path mapping like this:

But then they just seem to cancel each other out making the linux slave trying to access the win path again. I’m sure there is something I’m missing. Could anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks for any help in advance

Since this is Houdini, the issue might be related to your Houdini workfile setup.

The log mentions it’s rendering the USD file to Z:/test_project/test/folder/...

2025-09-07 19:00:04:  0: INFO: Rendering USD file: Z:/test_project/test/folder/work/fx/render/usd/tes1_folder_fx_v041/renderFxMainl89k5l75l8/__render__.usd

On my side, I usually use $HIP in my output directory, I wonder if $HIP preserves the windows path when rendering on linux machince.

How it looks like in my DL log

2025-08-07 12:29:39:  0: INFO: Rendering USD file: H:/AYON/projects/Experiments/things/USD_Render/work/generic/usd_renders/Expr_USD_Render_generic_v016/__render__.usd

Unfortunatly, I don’t have a linux machine around to test it.

Hey Mustafa,

thanks for your help!
I never changed the USD path, so its at its default using $HIP:

I did try swapping this path for an absolute one hoping that deadline would pick up the path mapping, but unfortunately both tries lead to the Linux machine trying only the windows path.

Have you tried to configure disk mapping in Deadline repository?

We were discussing recently that we should be filling these mapping on render job based on Anatomy, but that is not yet implemented.

Hi Petr,
thanks for taking the time to help. I dont think drive mapping is the issue here, since the drive is already mapped on the windows machine and accessible. Therefore, mapping the drive trough deadline again doesn’t do anything or the very least leads to the same outcome.
The issue is much more that the linux client isn’t mapping the Windows path correctly.
I tried setting HOUDINI_PATHMAP env var and made a $FARM var on both clients. First one I set to convert “Z:/” to “/mnt/user/Farm/” and I set the $FARM var to “Z:/” on windows and “/mnt/user/Farm/” once again on linux. But even that didnt help. the linux client still tries to access “Z:/…”

We were discussing recently that we should be filling these mapping on render job based on Anatomy, but that is not yet implemented.

Does this mean ayon doesn’t do any path mapping or am I misunderstanding this? Because I dont have this issue submitting with the standard deadline rop outside of ayon.

Are there any logs I can check for more detail to troubleshoot?

Cheers,
Luca

Could you provide an export of the Deadline job from AYON and the one from the standalone Deadline ROP so we can see the difference? What makes the Deadline one work in particular with the mixed paths, if you don’t have any path mapping configured?

DerQualle · 10 September 2025 18:11

Hey,

Not entirely sure what you mean by an export of the deadline job. I cant find export functionality in deadline itself. Could you explain it to me again?

I’ve attached the deadline logs if that helps in the meantime.

When submitting outside of AYON, I have this path mapping rule set:

And I use a relative path with a variable. Which leads to the windows machine and linux machine picking up jobs.

The path mapping even seems to be working just fine, just for it to error a couple lines after:

2025-09-10 10:16:42:  0: CheckPathMapping: Swapped "Z:/test_project/test/folder/work/fx/render/usd/tes1_folder_fx_v055/renderFxRubberToryRender\__render__.usd" with "/mnt/user/Farm/test_project/test/folder/work/fx/render/usd/tes1_folder_fx_v055/renderFxRubberToryRender\__render__.usd"

So something else I’m missing must be overwriting the path.

Appreciate the help.
Cheers,
Luca

I think that content of Submission - Time Rules at the bottom of your screenshot matches to we should be filling these mapping on render job.

Regular submissions fills that Submission - Time Rules, don’t really know from where, we should be probably filling those too.

(Or global rules could be filled in the meantime.)

Hey,

Just came across with this issue myself and then this post.

Did you ever figure out a solution?

When testing this on cross platform, at publishing, our windows machine picked up the usd render task and resolved all paths correctly from a file done under linux.

Then the linux machine fails the render. It seems the problem lies on the fact when creating the USD file in the first task, it burns in the image output path and that doesn’t get caught by path mapping.

cheers,
