Lighting Problem

[Philw]

The attached image has a light problem that I cannot find the solution. The light at the bottom of the door will not go away and I do not understand what is causing it to happen.

This scene is has a dome light, I have tried to turn off the lights but then I just get black. What am I doing wrong? If you have any idea or if you need more information on this file please let me know.
I am using V-Ray 2.0
Sketchup 2015

It's probably in your GI solution, look at your Light Cache or Irradiance Map settings.
For LC - try turning on retrace threshold, set at 0.9
For IM, "check sample visibility" can be enabled. Also, increase the "distance threshold value". Make sure your "HSph. subdivs" value is high enough (could try something like 120)
You can also increase your domelight subdivisions further, maybe try 64

Nice render, btw. Hope you render with some interior lights as well.

I got to HSph. subdivs" value (100) and that did the trick. This is one of my first images created in V Ray, so I am learning as I go. Still not happy with the shag rug quite yet.

thanks for the help and the complement.
