Houdini Python

[Soal GIVORD]

Hello, hi would like to run a script in some HIP files via RR.

But i encounter an error early in the job process (see joined .txt):

C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 18.0.348\bin\hython.exe: can't find '__main__' module in ''

Here is how i launch the job :

        # BUILD JOB COMMAND

        sCommand = ""

        options=""

        flags=""

        flags += ' -Software Houdini'

        flags += ' -Version 18.0.348'

        flags += ' -NoAutoSceneRead'            

        flags += ' -Renderer Python'        

        flags += ' -CustomScriptFile '+customScriptPath

        flags += ' -CustomFlagA '+";".join([lastScene,seq,sh,desc,str(row),str(col)])+" " 

        # flags += ' "CustomScriptFile=1~'+customScriptPath+'" '

        flags += ' -customScriptArguments '+";".join([lastScene,seq,sh,desc,str(row),str(col)])+" " 

        flags += ' -ImageDir '+houdiniLogPath

        flags += ' -SeqStart  101'

        flags += ' -SeqEnd   101'

        options += ' "Priority=1~99" '

        options += ' "Color=1~1" '

        options += ' "MaxClientsAtATime=1~3" '

        options += ' "IgnoreCrashes=0~0" '

        options += ' "MaxCrashes=0~1" '

        sCommand += submitterPath +" "+lastScene + flags + options

        print(sCommand)

        # launch job

        subprocess.call(sCommand, shell=True)

Can you please help?

Thanks

Best regards

Hi

 

The python script to be executed is missing in the commandline.

I remember there was an issue with older help files.

Regarding the latest version
http://www.royalrender.de/help8/index.html?Houdini.html
it has to be

flags += ' -CustomScript '+customScriptPath

PS:

I would recommend not to use the scene name in “FlagA”.
As you already have it as “scene” commandline flag.
But it should not be a problem either.
