As of Corona v5 DB 19-09-30 paths have changed again. You do not need to reinstall the service(s), the path adjustment can be done (also remotely) with the registry editor at location

Code: [Select]

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Corona Dr Server\Parameters
New Values:

Code: [Select]

"AppDirectory": "C:\Program Files\Corona\Corona Renderer for 3ds Max\Dr Server"
"Application": "C:\Program Files\Corona\Corona Renderer for 3ds Max\Dr Server\DrServer.exe"
(Same applies to the Corona Licensing Server service)

Imho this should be done by the installer btw. (detect the installed service, official name "Corona Dr Server" and adjust the paths in the registry).

Edit: And don't forget to adjust firewall settings as I just did :)


Good Luck
