I was wondering if anyone as had this error when sending a job to your network render nodes through 3dsMax Backburner.

3dsmax adapter error: Autodesk 3dsMax 19.3 reported error. Render Error (Initializing Renderer).

I can use the render nodes through DR and they work fine, just not through Backburner.

Hi might be able to answer this :)
I have had the same problem and mostly it comes to the fact that my Corona Licserver-laptop has installed updates
and has rebooted >> LicServer is not running and the nodes which try to connect to the server wont get licenses and 3dsmax says error (in backburner).

I had this problem just last week again. Have to put that licserver-program to start with Windows (8).

EDIT: Would be cool if the Corona Warning window in 3dsmax could sniff that the DrNodes cant connect to the licserver!

Based on the previous reports with similar issue I would suggest:
1) Making sure that Corona is licensed on all PCs, the easiest way is using our licensing server: https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000618553
2) Making sure that it is possible for Corona to access the folder with the license (e.g. there may be a problem if %localappdata% folder is moved to some other place)
3) Re-installing 3ds Max, Backburner, and Corona (this might not sound good, but it actually helped in one case)
