Maya 2014 SP2
VRay 3 Final
I have two different scenes, both of which I'd like to render with GI using Irr Map / Light Cache. The scenes render happily within Maya, but if I do a batch render (or submit to our farm) it fails. Locally, I just get a "Rendering Completed" message after a minute or so, but no output. On the farm I get:
2014-11-06 09:58:37.191026 | Segmentation fault (core dumped)
2014-11-06 09:58:37.192901 | // Maya exited with status 139
This happens either during, or immediately after the Light Cache has been generated (I can't tell exactly, as I don't get any Light Cache progress info in a batch render).
If I disable GI or use methods other than Light Cache it renders fine. On the farm, the renders fail on ~98% of nodes, but there is no consistency (i.e. one node might render correctly once, then fail if tried again).
I did not encounter this issue with 3.0504 (this may be a coincidence). The scenes are not very memory intensive (peak usage during render <2GB)
Is there any way this could be a permissions issue? Does VRay write the Light Cache to disk during a batch render, and if so, where does it put it?
