Everything was working great last night, no problem, then this popped up and has kept me from finishing.
This is the message. // Error: [driver_exr] defaultArnoldDriver@driver_exr.RGBA: can't create file ".exr": OpenEXR exception: Permission denied.
I looked this up and worked the two solutions, but neither of them worked with this file.
The first solution tried had us enter the syntax 'defaultArnold*' in the rename window, which I did, but nothing changed. It didn't show up in the Attributes editor.
The other solution regarded dumping the preferences using 'preferencesold' and starting over, which worked. I was able to render with Arnold no problem with another file. That told me that there is probably a syntax problem. I tried renaming everything and saving the file, rebooted Maya, but no change. I continue to have the same issue. How do I fix this? Is there a list of syntax that we're not supposed to use? I know we can use the underscore and the hash '#.' Please advise.
