Bug Checkin and Update Merge issues citing 'proper permissions' or license manager

Starting about a week or two ago I've been running into this error when trying to check in pending changes or Update Workspace.

In Unity:


In Plastic client:


In the log, the only useful part seems to be this:
2023-09-05 15:32:06,143 EVERY_USER_OR_GROUP Server:[REDACTED] FATAL LicenseManager - Limited by days evaluation licenses are not available anymore

What does that mean? I pay for Unity. used to pay for Teams seats too but that got replaced with DevOps. There's nothing else in the logs that seems pertinent; nothing about file paths.

 

... And this doesn't happen with other project repos. Just one in particular.

 

Steps taken:
Uninstalling and reinstalling the Plastic Client did nothing.
Inspecting and updating repo user and user group assignments and permissions did nothing.

Here's how I worked around this:

• I renamed my local project folder then checked out a fresh and complete download of the entire project from the repo.
• Opened both versions of the project in separate instances of Unity
• In the "old" version I viewed what files were in "Pending Changes" and then:
• ... copied those files over manually to the "new" project (luckily less than 20 files, but still...)
• Checked in changes in the "new" project and now this is where I will continue to work.

This really seems like a local file problem that Plastic didn't know how to deal with and the logs didn't provide details about.

 

The package version was 1.17.x when the bug happened, installed via a git path since the official package lists 1.15.18 as most recent and recommended, for some reason. After the above steps to recover, I reverted to 1.15.18. Should I stick to this one or update to UVC 2.x ? I am using Unity 2021.3.5.
