Render farm failed to initialize corona engine

I have a file I need to get rendered pretty urgently, however when I upload to pixelplow render farm i’m getting the following error:

My scene has no IRay materials, all materials are corona materials. The scene was converted from Vray using the corona converter script. The scene renders fine locally and also with a different render farm.

I’ve spoken to Pixelplow who have told me they’re unable to assist as corona doesnt kick out any error logs, so have forwarded me to yourselves. I am aware that they are using the beta of 1.3 whereas i’m using 1.2. Could this be the issue. Also when I upload i’m ticking the distributed rendering settings in the render setup dialog.

Cheers

Mik.

you should solve this with the render farm, we dont know what setup exactly they use, and I am not sure what the problem is from the log. If they confirm there is a problem with Corona, they should contact us and we will solve it directly between the technical personel.
