Hi all,
I tried different Win OS and different 3ds Max versions.
I found a bug when installed 3ds Max Design 2015 after all worked succesfully with 2014 version.
Message on log was "unsupported 3ds Max version: 2015".
I resolved issue manually changing file DrConfig.txt.
You have only to add word 2015 followed by 3ds Max 2015 path.
EG:
2013 C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max Design 2013\
2014 C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max Design 2014\
2015 C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max Design 2015\

Hope this will help if the case.
Regards.

This is NOT fixed by the way.

We just had this same issue updating a couple of render nodes to 2015 and Corona 7.2RC1.

The installer, even when using "clean previous version" and overwriting the old DR install, does not update the config file.

After manually adding it, everything works again.

DR bundled with A6 probably does not support max 2015 - when you delete the file I assume it wont find 2015 installed on HDD?

That's all the server writes -

2015/04/12-16:18:35   DR server started
2015/04/12-16:18:35   Error in the config file

I subscribe to the statement issue. DR on the 2015 version does not work!

whether to wait fixing?
