NOTE: mismatch issue is solved, ------- but inability to save image remains, and inability to render from previous version remains.

Hello Lino,
Thank you for checking this.
As noted in the FB group, ---- accurate render in the previous stable 2.9.2. . This file crashes in the latest stable 3.2.2.

If I disengage all texture maps, and resocket from within within 3.2.2, I can get a correct preview, and now correct Render with the simplified file, 3x fail scene.blend.

Before I simplified the file, the color management was off in the Render, as demonstrated in mismatch P and R.Blend.
------------------------------------------------------

ADDED INFO: sorry to pile on, but maybe these things are related. Render will not save in the file 3x fail scene.blend. This is the file that does match Render and Preview. One frame of a two frame animation will show, but not save automatically, nor manually (alt S) . In addition, very strange - an image of the cursor is present in the rendered image.
Also, Maybe relevant, in the comparison image of the output settings, there is a missing data line in 3.2.2. Maybe it moved? See Screenshot.jpg, yellow highlight.

-----------------------------------

Additionally: for the file, mismatch P and R, if you start a 2 frame animaion at frame 259, again, saving is denied.

The render mismatch is caused by a disabled Octane Imager in your scene. Enable it in either on camera or in 3d viewport window.

Yes, thank you for that, JC.
Image renders as a match, and there is no cursor image within the render.

Unfortunately, image saving is denied. I tried saving manually and animating. Tried switching target folders. I will edit the post to mark solved the mismatch issue.

Have you tried running Blender as Admin user?

Thanks, JC.

Yes. Both Server and Blender are set to "run as admin."
Neither of the uploaded files here are able to render past the first frame, nor do they allow image saving.

Starting a new file from scratch gives no relief.

Switching from Octane to Evee, or Cycles, no relief.


The Server and Blender are within a subfolder in Windows Programs.

I am running the latest Nvidia driver.

Not to add to your list, but you tried to save an Octane image from one of the uploaded files?

Both Beauty pass and Octane output are disabled in the scene, that´s why you can't get any render saved to disk.

Hi Lino,
Thanks for looking - Unfortunately not saving.

The image below shows my setup in 3.3. and also in 2.9 , except for the starred item.

2.9 did not require this enablement for Octane Output, at least where I have found it within the scene/output tab for both versions.
Does it exist somewhere else?

As I have it, enabled or not, still saving is denied.

I am missing something obvious, and I apologize, but could you direct me to the Octane Output you are referring to?

Thank you

Hi!
The panel is the same one you show in your post.
The problem you have seems to be related to some permission on your system.
Did you try launching both Server and Blender as administrator?

Hi Lino,
Yes.
I installed both Blend and Server as administrator.
And I rightclick and launch with Run as Administrator.

I guess I will un and re-install.

Hello,
I am still prevented from saving images or animations.

I have installed as admin. and run as admin.

My outputs are all solid when using the previous version. This indicates that my system is not at fault , correct?

What else should I look at?
