My first inclination is that your video drivers are old and might be using an old version of CUDA. That would be my first step in fixing the issue. Also it helps if you put a list of your hardware, driver version, etc. in your signature line. That way we can quickly see possible issues.

Hi mattafeller,
Sorry for the inconvenience.
As Jason mentioned, could you please have a check about your nv driver's version? Thanks!
"We are now using CUDA toolkit 9.1 (required to support Volta), which requires NVIDIA drivers of version 387 or higher. "
PS: Thanks for your help Jason!
Cheers,

Hi,
I have the same issue ... Unable to choose gpu and refresh gpu list, unable to clic on network preference. I don't thik so it comes from drivers, my video drivers is 397.64. In my otoy profile my licences are activated. I don't understand ... Am i missing something ?

mattafeller fixed it by never letting GEForce Experience chose your drivers.
Download them from the NVIDIA website.

The error you are getting is saying that there is a version difference between Octane Server and the custom Blender version. Did you stop and restart Octane Server?

Thanks a lot, Can't to wait for testing itDrawFun wrote:Hi MistAjuliax,
It seems to be a local character sets issue in some specific platforms, which would cause a mismatch version number between server and client.
We will look into the issue and release a quick fix soon.
