"Failed to write"

This popup is happening routinely today: "Failed to write: <texture filename>"

Details to help narrow down the cause:
  • I get this error when I start SketchUp and when I try to render.
  • When the render begins, half the scene is missing.
  • The path it is attempting to write the texture to is my SketchUp Octane folder (D:\Documents\Octane\SketchUp\temp\textures)
  • The file it is having a problem with is the map from a simple SU material (not converted to Octane) on model I grabbed from the 3D Warehouse.
  • I highly suspect it is related to this other *incredibly* annoying problem I am still experiencing. (http://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=41332)
  • I tried a repair install of Octane. No joy.
  • When I assigned a different material to the object from 3D Warehouse and purged the offending material from the scene, this error went away.
Any ideas?
