"failed to open file" error with Linked Files

[felipe_g]

Hello

Recently I keep getting this error. 

I have a linked file (EXR file, render using Blender), with Resource manager open and "Automatically update linked resources when modified externally" option On

The file is updated and replaced automatically as expected, but the error message appears anyway.

When I switch off Automatic Update and replace the linked file manually, the error message doesn't appear

UPDATE: This happens in the latest Beta 2.1.0.1732 version also

Hi Felipe_RB,

I don't seem to get this error when I try this here, in Blender are you saving as an Open EXR or an Open EXR multi layer?

Thanks

Hi Callum

Its an OpenEXR file. Im getting it every time now, not just occasionally. I thought maybe its something to do with Half/Full Float color depth but I get the same message with both.

Its a minor thing really as the file still updates, just an annoying popup
