I just upgraded to Sketchup Studio from Pro after my V-Ray license expired. I uninstalled V-Ray and the reinstalled it with the download from Sketchup. I made sure to use local licensing, but I still can’t get into V-Ray. "Failed to checkout a V-Ray for Sketchup License. The V-Ray License Server (by default accessed via internet browser [http://localhost30304](http://localhost30304)) has no V-Ray for Sketchup licenses available." Has anyone else dealt with this issue before? ---

I figured it out. Just needed to login into my Chaos account using Trimble. ---
