Adobe engine crashing on long operations

CGSoup · April 23, 2020, 4:04pm

Good morning,

Re-posting a long standing issue I have had with the Adobe frameworks. This ‘bug’ exemplifies my love/hate relationship with the adobe frameworks.

Working with the engine is frustrating as things often behave differently in different cases. Here is the latest issue I just can’t seem to get past.

Using a operation like…

self.adobe.app.load(self.adobe.File(path))

…works great on small to medium sized files. But very large files seems to cause an issue that results in the engine crashing, very reliably.

I have mostly experienced this in Premiere where exporting a very large Sequence will cause the engine to crash. Now I am seeing this a lot in Photoshop, especially now that I am working from home via VPN. File transfers are MUCH slower and the issue has gone from occasional to almost every time.

In the past, I have gotten around these types of issues with something like…

self._HEARTBEAT_DISABLED = True
very long operation
self._HEARTBEAT_DISABLED = False

… but that does not seem to be helping here.

Sometimes I can get around all of this using the direct RPC commands…

rpc_cmd = ‘app.load(File("’+path+‘"))’
results = self.engine.adobe.rpc_eval(rpc_cmd)

But that gives the exact same results.

Here is the tail of the log.

I should add the file loads fine but the engine is crashed afterwards. Most of the time I can recover the contexts after restarting the engine.

Hi @CGSoup,

Thanks for the details report. Could you give us the size of the files? If you could send us a sample would be great.

CGSoup · April 24, 2020, 10:20pm

They are all production files so I cant easily send them but the current ones were around 4-5G, regular multi-layer psd file. Does not seem to matter about the content, just the time to download/open. It seems more related to the time, not the size as I have seen this for a while when working from home before the recent pandemic caused wfh to be all the rage.

I will try to get something packaged up to test when I have a moment. Right now I need to submit a New Topic . It’s also related to one of my current projects.

Hey Daniel – is disabling the heartbeat actually working? We’ve seen disabling it causing the engine to crash: as I understand it, when the heartbeat is disabled, Toolkit thinks Photoshop is not responding, so it falls down.

I’m going to run this by an engineer that’s more familiar with this specific part of the code, but I did want to mention this bit of information in the meantime.

CGSoup · May 18, 2020, 10:26pm

Answering multiple replies here.

Sizes are large. The one I use to test is 636MB. Not sure how small is on the lower end because when it works, you work. When it crashes, you notice. To me though it more about the time, as opposed to size.

self._HEARTBEAT_DISABLED = True

No. It’s not working. That was me flailing about…

But, it fails in exactly the same way regardless of whether I set the flag, use a with heartbeat_disabled(): or none of the above, just adobe.app.load()

Actually, the error when loading through Workfiles (as opposed to my custom App) is slightly different but the gist is that it has lost communication with the engine.

We use a custom WorkFiles and PS Engine so I tested on a config using the latest greatest releases of both from GitHub. Here is the log…

Let me clarify about the file sizes.

At work, on the local network, it seems that files above 3.5G or so cause the crash.

WFH via VPN makes this much worse and the max is around 500MB. This is why I postulate this is a time related issue, not necessarily a size issue. Every now and again one of these big files will open fine without crashing the engine, and it’s always seems to be because the file loaded much more quickly than usual. Sometimes our connectivity speeds spike!

Please let me know if there is anything in terms of testing or more detail that I can provide.

Hi @CGSoup – I just wanted to let you know that we’ve put in an internal bug ticket for this one, so it’s in the hands of the engineering team. Our first step will be to reproduce the issue, and then figure out how to address it from there. I’ve linked this post to the internal ticket, so we’ll be notified when it’s resolved, and will notify you in turn.

So sorry you’re experiencing this – we really hate it when our tools cause crashes in other software.

CGSoup · October 13, 2020, 4:18pm

Good morning,

Wondering if there was any movement internally on this issue. It is still causing us daily headaches, especially over VPN.

Hey all,

We’ve also been having this issue, and I wonder if there’s been any progress tracking down the issue.

Let me know

I upped the SHOTGUN_ADOBE_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT from 300 (5 minutes) to 900 (15 minutes) here…

github.com

shotgunsoftware/tk-framework-adobe/blob/0d8b4e314a42e65bdb503ba3254b20aca98bac73/python/tk_framework_adobe/adobe_bridge.py#L94


class AdobeBridge(Communicator):
    """
    Bridge layer between the Adobe product and Shotgun Toolkit.
    """
    # Backwards compatibility added to support tk-photoshop environment vars.
    # https://support.shotgunsoftware.com/hc/en-us/articles/219039748-Photoshop#If%20the%20engine%20does%20not%20start
    SHOTGUN_ADOBE_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT = os.environ.get(
        "SHOTGUN_ADOBE_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT",
        os.environ.get("SGTK_PHOTOSHOP_TIMEOUT", 300.0,),
    )
    SHOTGUN_ADOBE_HEARTBEAT_TIMEOUT = os.environ.get(
        "SHOTGUN_ADOBE_HEARTBEAT_TIMEOUT",
        os.environ.get("SGTK_PHOTOSHOP_HEARTBEAT_TIMEOUT", 0.5,),
    )
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(AdobeBridge, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.logger.debug(

That seemed to help a lot. Best I could tell it was just plain giving up after 5 minutes.
Still wondering why I did not raise it even higher…

Hello, community!
After some investigation, we found that increasing the Socket.IO server (CEP plugin) ping time significantly improves performance. Feel free to try the latest version tk-framework-adobe v1.2.5.
To implement this, set the following environment variable and ensure you’re using the latest tk-framework-adobe version

SHOTGUN_ADOBE_SERVER_PING_TIMEOUT=60000

kporangehat · October 25, 2024, 6:35pm

FYI, this seems to work for us. We’re setting the env variable in our tank_init.py core hook so that it persists for artists running Photoshop from Desktop. Another option would be to have your IT groups just set the env var system-wide on your user machines.

This has been a very long-standing issue for us and it’s great to have this workaround.

Thanks @eduardoChauca for following through with this!

YAY Eduardo!

I’m still testing and seeing if this is going to fix the issues we’ve had, but already having good results! This has plagued us for a long time, and if it’s fixed, I will be so relieved.

Appreciate the update, y’all! Thank you.
