6th June 2007 at 2:06 pm #14189I got an error when using Muster with XSI render:
“The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.”and I got some reference from this link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318746but It seems there’s no error like the above link describes.
help please…

8th June 2007 at 9:16 am #14685Hi Leonardo.
I’ve been testting Muster 5.2 based distributed rendering with XSI 6.0 , 3ds Max 9.0 in windows server 2003, and got some error messeges from both of them
for XSI:
1. calling XSIBatch.bat, and using UNC scene path:
[MUSTER]Spawning process C:SoftimageXSI_6.0ApplicationbinXSIBatch.bat inside C:SoftimageXSI_6.0Applicationbin using the following command line flags:[MUSTER]-r -startframe 25 -endframe 26 -step 1 -verbose “prog” -scene “\RfserverdigiManRootproductionASP_RnDxsiPrjScenesxsiRenderTestDisp.scn”
The system cannot find the path specified.
[MUSTER]Process terminated with the following exit code: 1
2. calling XSIBatch.bat and using drive mapping path:
[MUSTER]Spawning process C:SoftimageXSI_6.0ApplicationbinXSIBatch.bat inside C:SoftimageXSI_6.0Applicationbin using the following command line flags:[MUSTER]-r -startframe 25 -endframe 26 -step 1 -verbose “prog” -scene “Y:ASP_RnDxsiPrjScenesxsiRenderTestDisp.scn”
The Filename, Directory Name, or Volume Label Syntax Is Incorrect.
[MUSTER]Process terminated with the following exit code: 1
3. calling “XSIBatch.exe” and UNC path, everything is ok, but you’d setup the Envirenment Variables manually.
and for Max, all the renderclient radomly encounter errors like this:
[MUSTER]Spawning process C:Program FilesAutodesk3ds Max 93dsmaxcmd.exe inside C:Program FilesAutodesk3ds Max 9 using the following command line flags:[MUSTER]-v:5 -start:2 -end:2 -nthFrame: 1 Y:ASP_RnDMaxProjscenesrenderTest.max

[MUSTER]Process terminated with the following exit code: 3
any help is appreciated!
9th June 2007 at 1:54 am #14686Ok, regarding XSI, the next service release will include a modified template that allows you to set the environmental variables on a client basis using the management console.
Regarding Max,as the log says, it’s an unexpected exception,I suppose you’re rendering a basic scene, so it may be something related to your file server ? As you see, it’s the max batch render that’s crashing just before starting the render. I may suppose it crashes when loading textures or other stuff.
You said in happens randomly. What’s the frequence of this behaviour ?
11th June 2007 at 11:03 am #14689Never heard about such kind of crashes, I suggest you to check your file server as well as your licensing configuration.
Regards.
