Hello, i've installed crowdrender on my headless linux machine, but i can't get it work. I've tried this command:
./blender -b -P /home/legend/blender/2.79/scripts/addons/crowdrender/src/bl_2_79/serv_int_start.py -- "server_int_proc"
and all i've got is:
Read prefs: /home/legend/.config/blender/2.79/config/userpref.blend
found bundled python: /home/legend/blender/2.79/python
about to reg client

Blender quit
I succesfully ran blender's default netrender, but i wasn't satisfied with it, so I decided to give crowdrender a shot.
Thanks for help
P.S. Sorry for my English, i hope you can understand me :)
Hi Pupetz, your english is great mate ;) No need to apologize, and no worries, we'll help you get this working. Just a quick question, are you running blender with the default paths for scripts? I ask cause your path to the serv_int_start.py file doesn't look like mine (I run Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Kubuntu). Normally when using the install addon feature in blender, the addon will be installed into ~/.config/Blender/2.79/scripts/addons/
It would be great to know why you're using the path you gave above where you setup the headless server.
Hope to hear from you soon
James
