Chaos Corona for 3ds Max => [Max] I need help! => Topic started by: Erik1974 on 2024-11-13, 14:13:32

Is there a problem with the licensing service? All of a sudden i can't access the license anymore. I have been working with Corona the entire morning and part of the afternoon and now i keep getting 'license not found' errors. A reinstall of the license server gives me 1 time to access a license but after starting max i can use the license but as soon as i want to render the license is gone again. The license server shows that there is a license available but i can't use it?
Anyone else experiencing problems?
Edit: the license servers also reports a license in use while that is not the case. The computer using it according to the server is my workstation.

I allready did that, i was just wondering if this is a global or local issue.

Hi,
No, I am not familiar with any global issue that maybe going on. If you have already sent the support ticket. Someone from the licensing will reach out to you soon.
-
we have the same issue as well
Feel it might be more global then expected?

I found that when i remove my Vray dongle (which i still use for an old Vray version for 1 specific client) the license works normal again. I also reported this to the support team.

I got the same issue today afternoon. I noticed that after windows 11 was updating
-
Well well, it seems that it is wider spread than just me.....This is becoming an urgent issue indeed!
-
we could locally check out a license which helps us carry on working, but it's not ideal as no render farm at all.
I'm hoping we get a reply asap but corona support is slow as F

For now only removing the dongle solves the problem

On our side the issue has been fixed. I am now able to use the dongle again.
