Of course.
Here is a screenshot of the HQueue settings in the OUT context.
And also the scene file.
Thank you for having a look!
Cheers.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to render a scene via HQueue, using Arnold.
The submission process works fine but the render fails to start.
Here is the log from HQueue.
Could someone have a look at this, please? I've posted this on the HTOA forum, but no answer yet, so maybe it's a Houdini issue??
Thank you very much!
Alain
