Network slave under ubuntu
I am trying to install several network slaves under ubuntu, but I get the following failure message:
Using base Indigo directory path '\home\s\Desktop\indigo'.
Scene file path: '\home\s\Desktop\indigo\network_cache/1486804824\scene.igs'
Using working directory path '\home\s\Desktop\indigo\network_cache\1486804824'.
Loading Scene '\home\s\Desktop\indigo\network_cache/1486804824\scene.igs'...
IndigoDriverExcep: SceneLoaderExcep: failed to open XML doc from path '\home\s\Desktop\indigo\network_cache/1486804824\scene.igs': Failed to open file
I am using Wine to run the windows version. The original computer is using windows and blendigo. I gave the folders on the slave computer writing permissions and shared it on the network. Could anybody help please?

I think you use an older Indigo version m8!
Nowadays this als is autoated, your master packs the scenefiles and send thm via network to each slave that was found...
here my master and slave cmd files for Indigo:
With this one you start Indigo in Working Master Mode, simply oben your scene file to render and it will spread it to your slaves.
This starts a slave in console mode, where x.x.x.x is the IP and yyyy the Port you connect to. This whole -h command isn't needed eventually, but better you know about it!
have fun!

I tried version 1.1.15 and version 1.1.17 with wine and the linux version. You're right, it's automated, and it worked fine for me with all slaves in windows intalled, the problem seems to be that ubuntu is not able to read the files it just created.
I found another thread about this:

This guy ended up copying the files manually on each network mashine. Do you know anything more about this? Thanks in advance.

The master creates a scene.pigs in the network_cache folder for distribution over the network.
In the Slave network_cache folder this zip file get extruded into a Folder with some random number name... and from here I don't know how to work with this one
The crash of your Linux master is interesting.... shouldn't hapen and a Bug indeed!

On my linux slave I get a packed scene file in *.pigs format, but it never creates a folder with the same random name. If I copy the files manually to a folder with the same name everything works fine, the master receives frames from the slave.
Maybe this is a unpacking problem because ubuntu does not recognize pigs-files as packed archives?

hmmm.... so it seems the zip-code in Indigo is not Linux save!? I acctually don't know much about Linux and all the strange packs etc. you need to install to get stuff running etc., so I log off and hand over to some Linux Heads
Nice that it works as long as you start your Network renderings with unzipping by hand... better than nothing
