Hi,
I am getting an error on two of my render nodes, the job log is bellow. Not really sure what it means or where to begin troubleshooting this. Could this be some kind of permissions or access issue?
Running version 6.1.0.5 and windows 7 sp1 x64. There is about 40GB of free space on the system, so its not a space issue.
[code]
Error
