Watermark problem

[nezgro79]

Hi I have this problem from june 2020 I don't understand why but if I make a render for 800 frames or toher frames range I have randomly the arnold watermark on frame !!! And I need to remake a render just for 10 frames why?

I have a paid licence maybe I need to use a crack ?

To find out why, we have to start with an Arnold log that shows what licensing errors happened.

Also, enable Abort on License Fail so you don't render with a watermark. Then you have to check for missing frames.

Yes but is a random problem i have launched 800 frames now and no watermark problem…

and i'm working i cant waste my time

Enabling Abort on License Fail is worth it.

Ok, so it's a timeout...the licensing service didn't respond within 10 seconds, or the licensing client wasn't able to connect within 10 seconds.

Are all checkouts slow?
If you have the logs for the rest of the sequence, we can check.

In a terminal, use grep:

grep authorized *.log > authorized.log

and then post that log
