When commandline rendering using Maya, we always get this error:
Cannot find procedure "shaderBallRendererMenuUpdate".
The error itself doesn’t seem to affect the render and the render completes just fine. However, this becomes an issue since all errors during rendering are being submitted into a Slack channel. This error completely spams the channel as it *always* is being hit on every single render.
What could be causing this to happen?
The error appears in this context which causes me to think it could be related to V-Ray:
