Wanting to ping the community to see if anyone has experienced the error [ A PythonObject is not attached to a node ] when opening an existing Nuke comp version that contains a Shotgun Toolkit Nuke Write node.
The comp could be something as simple as a colorbars node and a Shotgun Toolkit Nuke Write node
Save the comp via Nuke's Shotgun pull-down menu, reopen the comp via [ Shotgun File Manager ] and without fail, we'll get the error dialog [ Failed to open file - A PythonObject is not attached to a node ].
The comp still opens but the [ Shotgun Toolkit Nuke Write node ] is corrupt and the [ Shotgun File Manager ] remains open and has to be manually closed.
Explanation of "corrupt":
After the comp has opened, I open the [ Shotgun Toolkit Nuke Write node ] in Nuke's Properties panel.
The [Context, Local Path, File Name] fields are empty with a yellow [Proxy Mode] "warning" above the [Context] field and a yellow [Warning] above the [render order] field.
I click on the [Reset Path] button on the [ Shotgun Toolkit Nuke Write node ] in Nuke's Properties panel and this "resets" the paths. Visually everything looks like it's fixed in the [ Shotgun Toolkit Nuke Write node ] in Nuke's Properties panel.
If I were to submit this comp via [ Nuke's Deadline Render Submit ], a warning dialog box will open with
- [ Output path for write node 'Write1' is not padded: ]
- [ None ]
- [ Do you still wish to submit this job to Deadline? ]
If I delete the existing [ Shotgun Toolkit Nuke Write node ] and recreate a new [ Shotgun Toolkit Nuke Write node ] via [ Nuke's Shotgun Write Node Toolbar ] selection, the [ Nuke's Deadline Render Submit ] is successful.
Additional information and things I've done to remedy this:
- Utilizing Python2.7
- Python site-packages in [ C:\Python27 ] are empty
- Python site-packages located on our server that are typically used, have been removed from the system and application PYTHONPATH's
- Shotgun Toolkit Project Config was cloned and replaced with the default Shotgun Toolkit config [with the exception of modifying certain paths for applications and the directory structure schema]
- Shotgun Toolkit Core API has been updated along with the Shotgun Toolkit Project Config mentioned above.
- All Nuke users are experiencing this issue.
- Created a default, clean system user account with no custom settings applied for any apps.
- Have had an on-going ticket opened with Shotgun to look into it [no fix yet or idea of why it's happening] and have had a local Shotgun rep out to go over this issue and others we've experienced. Again, no luck tracking the issue down.
I've also provided a screen capture of the Nuke error dialogs that are displayed when going through the processes mentioned at the head of this email.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
