Reply To: 2.8 Hurdles and Roadblocks

I have an old project that was created in 2.79 that I am rebooting and it opens fine in Blender 2.8. All the objects , textures and lighting are there , and it even renders out perfectly in cycles viewport rendering. However , as soon as I run a proper render, it renders out a black image instantly. 

I am assuming this may have something to do with render layers , as the original file was set up to render with several , but I may be wrong. From what I understand from reading back on this post , render layers have now changed to the icons that are available in the outliner/collections panel. You can see below the image I get when I render , and some of the render settings. Also , the few items in the outliner at the bottom with the holdout and indirect logos are the only ones that seem to have this setting. 

Can anybody think why it renders a blank black image?
