Hi all,

I can't get PDG to work with Hqueue on Ubuntu Linux 19.04, see the error below.
/shares/project1 is mapped to the shared network folder on the Hqueue server machine. I can access it from both the server machine and another machine on the network as the user hquser. Inside Houdini I can acces /shares/project1 just fine.
I tried logging in as the user ‘hquser’ instead of my regular username but the same error persists after opening Houdini and re-submitting.
All machines are using Ubuntu 19.04.

I'm at a loss at the moment why this is failing, any help would be much appreciated.
