Hey y’all,
I’m hoping somebody can help me here. With the command line options available in MocapLive, I’m trying to set up Condor to distribute MotionBuilder work to other machines. Everything is working with the job distribution, but I can’t get MotionBuilder to actually start up. It actually just hangs there when I call:
C:\Program Files\Autodesk\MotionBuilder-7.5\bin\motionbuilder.exe -suspendMessages myScript.py
The hang happens prior to the initialization screen even getting displayed. If I run this on my desktop, it of course runs fine.. just not via the job dist. I can get onto the machine that this job was sent to and see that the process is there (motionbuilder.exe) but it seems to be waiting on DLL’s. When I use ProcessExplorer and grab the stack I’ve got this at the end:
ntoskrnl.exe+0x57e8
ntoskrnl.exe!SeFilterToken+0x309
ntoskrnl.exe!CcPurgeCacheSection+0x201
ntoskrnl.exe!CcPurgeCacheSection+0x240
ntoskrnl.exe!KeQueryRuntimeThread+0x5e8
ntoskrnl.exe!CcPurgeCacheSection+0x240
ntoskrnl.exe!NtQueryInformationToken+0xb4e
ntoskrnl.exe!ZwSetSystemInformation+0x23
ntdll.dll!KiFastSystemCallRet
mswsock.dll+0x5fa7
WS2_32.dll!select+0xa7
klicense.dll+0x2de39
... lots of “klicense.dll addr” stuff
klicense.dll+0x211b
klicense.dll!GetProductPointReleaseVersion+0xac
kernel32.dll!RegisterWaitForInputIdle+0x49
So, this is a big lead up to what might be an easy question. What might I be missing? I figure its something in my path. Are there environment variables that I need here? I could swear I’ve got the PATH set up right and all. But I don’t see a DLL Path and can’t think of what else MB would need to start up properly.
(if there’s a way to process things in a future MB without loading up the GUI, I’ll be happy to see it! :)).
Thanks,
Steve
