I have a TOP subnet containing a DeadlineScheduler, with only a few parameters exposed to simplify things for the production floor.
As part of an easy-to-use UI for PDG render/sim there is a button that should trigger the ‘Submit Graph as Job’ functionality in the DeadlineScheduler. This seems like it should work, except it is not. Any ideas?

edit: added .hda for reference

Have you tried with the latest daily build of Houdini 18? We fixed some issues with this in the past weeks.

Hey Seelan.
I have not. Unfortunately we're version-locked to 17.5.391 for the current show due to version compatibility with other plugins. I guess there's no other work-around?

I tried your HDA. I had to fix up the Python path in the scheduler Python parm to the following:

If you use back slashes, you'll need to double them up (i.e. \\) to escape Houdini evaluation. Or just stick with forward slashes (/).

Make sure your TOP Deadline scheduler settings works normally (i.e not in subnet). If you are still getting errors, paste the Verbose Log output.

Ah, that is a really old version. Maybe you can try using parm presets instead?
