AEGP Plugin CINEWARE SceneLayer: CINERENDER - Connection failure (5027 :: 12)

Working in AE CC2014.1 and C4D lite.  I have a project with a few .c4d files in it.  I'm working on this project at my work computer, and I then bring it home in the evenings and work on it on my own computer (both mac pros).  At work it's fine, at home I have problems. 

I get the error "AEGP Plugin CINEWARE SceneLayer: CINERENDER - Connection failure (5027 :: 12)" when I launch AE, and I think it does this for every .c4d file I have in this project.  I can see the file just fine in C4D lite, and in after effects I see a black screen in the comp window.  However I can see the thumbnail of the c4d file in the project window when I have the c4d file selected.  The layer is active in the comp's timeline as well.  Not sure what to do about this.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

Hey all,

I resolved the problem by running AE as the administrator. Right click on the program and run as administrator. This is using Windows 8.1

I have the exact same issue. Has anyone figured out how to get around it? I'd really appreciate the help.

I've been getting this quite often as well. Almost reason enough to just buy Cinema 4D outright even though all I need is it to work within AE.

I am having this same exact issue.  I'm guessing Adobe hasn't found a proper solution yet?

ARe your C4D and AE versions the same? Have you checked the port connection options in Cineware?

Hi Mylenium.  Thanks for the reply.  They are the same versions as far as I know - CC 2014.1 and C4d r16 (CC updates and all).  But I am relatively new to C4D, and I don't really know anything about port connection options.  I'll do a google search for that, but if you have a link, it would be greatly appreciated.
