DR Spawner.exe

[Ken Finley]

I loaded up the latest version and tried distributed rendering, but my slave machines are actively refusing to connect. Any ideas? I installed the DRSpawner again on the slave machines and checked all the firewalls. The slave machines do not go to error when I render, they just sit there.

Thanks to anyone who can help, earlier version worked fine.

Make sure that when you update you're VfSU that the spawner gets updated as well. Most of the issues that we see with the spawner is because its from a different version. Unless you're using the spawner from the build that you have running in VfSU, then you can't be 100% certain that it will work. Some updates might not change the spawner at all, and some might have a change that will prevent the spawner from connecting or contributing. The spawner is working fine here, so it does work.

I had the same problem when we updated to the newer version. We have 10 computers its on and we just updated them and it all worked normally.

Copy Damien's reply; the problem is most likely with version of the spawner. Make sure all servers are running the same version & there won't be a problem.

How do you find out the spawner's version number?

Would be nice if it's print the version in the console window it opens.
