Hi there,

i'm not sure if this has something to do with 3d max in general or corona...

i'm rendering an animation of 5000 frames. i use renderpal with my 2 x i7 machines.

each chunk (renderbucket) is 250 frames big => 21 chunks of 250 frames.

from time to time (every 2-3 chunk) the 250 frames run through nice, but after finishing the last frame of the chunk, max brings up a "failure message":

renderpal records this in the eventlog:

27.06.2014 11:01:06: head_pappen_023(3) :: Erroneous (The renderer returned an error-code (0x3))
the stupid thing is, that i have to manually to press the button to confirm the error. once this is done, the next chunk start right away and renders smoothly, until maybe 2-3 chunks later this happens again!

does anybody got a solution for that? i found in the net other people having the same problem, but no real solution. only hints are install all the sercive pack (what i did before) and all win 8.1 update which i did...

the other solution would be to make the chunks bigger, so the failure happens not so often...

does anybody else get this kind of problem?

All the best and thanks

That is unrelated to corona i believe.

WSCommCntr4.exe is autodesk infocenter bullshit. It crashes on our machines at work as well. There are some solutions to this around the internet.

I remembered what the solution was.

InfoCenter was crashing because it was missing a folder where it stores it's logs. So you need to go to: "C:\Users\*username*\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\" folder, and create folder named WebServices there. Once that is done, restart your computer and it hopefully won't crash again. ;)

Niiiice, I'll test immediately, the test without corona has to wait a bit, until project (https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php/topic,4339.0.html )
Will be finished or I'm save in terms of time deadline.
By the way, if you have hungry none rendering render farm... I have same finger food ;)

Thanks a lot for the quick replies!!

could be the firewall the problem? ... 10 min off internet research...

i'm using wfc firewall control.

can i just disable / uninstall  this shitty InfoCenter?

see link here for autocad, would this work?
http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-architecture/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/How-to-disable-the-Communication-Center-in-Autocad-s.html

or did you mean this folder?

Infocenter is quite hard to get rid of. I remember trying to simply remove it, but something ceased to work...  i am not sure... it was a long time ago.

Simply try to disable the process and service via task manager, and then rename WSCommCntr4.exe to WSCommCntr4.bak.

In case something breaks, just rename it back to WSCommCntr4.exe.

this better than renaming? could the renaming cause problems too? ( i'll keep you informed, stay tuned ;)
