Description

Recently switched over to 3.0 for the cycles x abilities. wonderful, works great until I tried rendering a larger image than the tile size making it render multiple tiles, after it gets close to finishing the first tile it stops and gives the message "Error writing tile to file"

Tried some basic fixes that I could find online like changing file paths, resolution, tile size. but nothing seems to fix the issue. I would just scale the tile larger than the image but I run out of memory so its not feasible at present.

Try to change preference path of temp files to which Cycles uses for save tiles while rendering an image. May be a temp directory placed in RAM or a disk which doesn't enough has space? I had a similar issue.

It should be noted that if you change the temp files directory in preferences, you will need to save your preferences, then close Blender and re-open it again to avoid a different bug.

Same problem Alaska reported here: T93727: Changing temporary directory results in errors with tiles while rendering in Cycles

I don't see any reason to keep similar task open so I will merge your report in T93727

Thanks for the report :)

(Feel free to comment if issue is different and not same as T93727, I'll reopen)
