AE plugins can't access license server

Engaged ,
Jan 04, 2022 Jan 04, 2022

Hello,

I have several plugins that can't access the license server. 

I send you a video to show you what happens : the login page should have appeared after selecting the RTFX pack.

I saw this post but the guy from Adobe answered on direct email (??!...) 

RTFX is not the only plugin that can't access so how can I change that without going to info.plist ?

Thanks

Sometimes, closing the panel and reopen it works.

But since this post and some updates from After Effects (or maybe from plugins), I've not had this issue again.

What does some third-party script/ plug-in have to do with AE? I fail to see how that's relevant for AE's core functions. If there are specific issues, you have to contact the plug-in vendors. Otherwise you have to provide more info on your system and critical stuff like how you actually installed and licensed those plug-ins/ scripts.

As plugins are inside After Effects, I guess After Effects is the chief officer of what it does or doesn't accept. 

I had several issues with third party plugins these last days, that I've never had before. And I guess that some configurations work, because if not, they won't sell it as is.

I contacted the vendors and they did have fixs, but I would have preferred not to have fix them. 

 

So let me reformulate my question : what is inside After Effects that doesn't allow me to access the license servers of those third party plugin ?

 

I'm on MacOS 10.13.6, AE 17.5.1

 

Thanks

What version of After Effects are you using? Also, which plug-in are you having issues with? Updating the plug-ins should be the first thing that I'd do for such issues.

Let us know how it goes.


Thanks,
Nishu
