Houdini Plugin can't authenticate

Tue Apr 21, 2020 7:03 pm

Hi,

I get an error saying " Can't authenticate the standalone Octane license. Could not activate" when i try to launch the IPR in Houdini. I can launch the standalone edition just fine. Already tried unlocking the licenses through the subscriptions page but that didn't help.

Hmm, what plugin and Standalone versions are you using? I think that the RC1/RC2 builds have expired ...

You can also try to reboot your system to check if it helps.

Thanks,

OKay, so they expire. good to know

I installed the last version and it's working now . I got a bunch of error warnings upon opening the Houdini scene file, about unknown parameters but everything seems to render fine at first glance. Thanks Juanjo
