the workstation to 3ds max 2011 last week and reinstalled vray I launched the license server but got the " WK1118- " error box with the title " WkWin64.dll " After pressing OK I then get " error 128 is occured! " the title on this being vrlservice.exe: Start Error .
I REALLY need help getting this problem solved fast.

If you go to a browser window where the dongle is located and type- http://localhost:30304/getstatus
Does anything come up?

Hello,

It seams like a WIBU-KEY driver issue. Please proceed with fresh new installation of the latest WIBU-KEY drivers corresponding to your OS from
http://wibu.com/download\_user.php

Make sure that the dongle is not plugged in and the V-Ray license server is not running during the installation.

Hello Zori,
Thanks for the quick reply; I’ve a question the site is in german so are the drivers known as " codemeters " or are they in the " Wibukey Runtime-Kit " ?
Thanks,

There is an english version of site too, but in any case you need the WIBU-KEY drivers.

Hello Vlado,
I installed the drivers, launched the server and I get this dilog box with a yellow warning triangle with an exclamation point in it: Error WK1122 -
WIBUKEY.SYS cannot be started (systems error 577 ). The dialog box is titled " WkWin64.dll " . Any suggestions would be gladly followed.

Thanks,

Lytestream

Hello again,

Please uninstall the WIBU-KEY driver and delete all WIBU related files (if any left). Check if the V-Ray license service and the WIBU-KEY server are registered as Windows services and if so, stop them. Plug out the dongle. Then proceed with fresh new installation of the WIBU-KEY driver (for Windows Vista/Windows 7 make sure to use the “Run as administrator” option).
If the problem persists, please e-mail us at vray@chaosgroup.com in order to arrange a web conference to solve the issue.
