Vray License server erron on local machine when using BB server

[PIXELBOX_SRO]

Hi chaosguys,

i am having weird problem which started happening today:

My computer serves as the one who distributes all the licences to the render machines.
Its name is WORKSTATION3
The BB managet to which i am sending the jobs is named RENDERMAN4.
It then sends all the other BB servers accross our network the jobs.

now

when i start BB server on my computer, the WORKSTATION3, i get this error.



all other comps render without any issues.
My vray licence in max works fine and is active.
we have 10+3 vray rendernodes, from which 4 are unused.

This should not be happening.
Any idea what the problem is?

Cheers

It may be because of this:
I installed PD Player on a different computer and ran it on my computer using the floating licence.
All of the sudden i have in my Vray Licence Server setup THAT computers IP address instead of localhost.
I dont get it somehow the vray licence and pd dont work together.
I cant even change it...it says it cant save :-/

So will uninstall PD and reinstall vray hoping it will work again.

Run the license server from V-Ray only, and not the one from PDPlayer. Both of them should run fine then.
