CreatePreviewJobFromTasks.py - PythonNetException: DeadlineSubmissionException : could not find Auxiliary submission file: 6f03647cc5d01164.json

[Kornosky]

Hello! I'm trying to use this awesome script, but keep getting the error:
PythonNetException: DeadlineSubmissionException : could not find Auxiliary submission file: 6f03647cc5d01164.json

This doesn't make sense to me because the Aux files are very much there, is there something that needs to be added to the script for it to correctly find the Aux file?
Additionally, I would like to have it consider job dependencies, but that's a later issue.

Repository Version: 10.1.12.1 (f21639b8f)
Integration Version: 10.1.12.1 (f21639b8f)

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for reporting this @Kornosky! I bet the problem is that we're not builidng the full path to the job's aux files here:
https://github.com/ThinkboxSoftware/Deadline/blob/master/Custom/scripts/Tasks/CreatePreviewJobFromTasks.py#L58C32-L58C63

I think the way around that is going to be to resubmit the job as suspended using ResubmitJob, then make modifications to that, then unsuspend it. This avoids the need to read and write the aux files via Python and we can just let the core Deadline API do the right thing for us.

I can't commit to when this might happen, but it does look like we'll need to do that to support any jobs with auxiliary files.
