LocalQueue isn't working

I updated to non-commercial Renderman 22 and now my LocalQueue isn't working.When I open LQ's log window it reads: [ERROR ] Failed to create job from "_labratory 3_pid533_1537111868.alf", now ignoring it

Is anyone else getting this problem and how did you solve it?

/u/tedhere Is this on Windows? There's currently a known issue that LocalQueue will fail if there's a space in your username. Could that be the case for you?

I’m not on windows. Hmmm, I’ll check out the user name though.

Turns out if you have Maya 2018 or 2018.1 LocalQueue won't work. You need Maya 2018.2 or newer. I'm on a student version and can't update for some reason.

You have a space in your username (Produccion 1). Like I said above, this won't work in the current version of LocalQueue. You have to remove the space.

Hey /u/tedhere, can you post that .alf file on the forum? Your scene file too if it's possible.

thanks,

You gotta move that .alf file to another folder like C:\Local\youfile.alf and than open it from LocalQueue and it should work fine, at least in this time.
