Description

Current Behavior

Currently with ayon-maya 0.4.2, if I create a basic scene and publish, I get the following error:

DEBUG: Staging dir found: "C:\Users\JOSEPH~1.HEN\AppData\Local\Temp\ay_tmp_dp2pu9mn". Ignoring setting from `project_settings/maya/render_settings/default_render_image_folder`.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\joseph.henry\AppData\Local\Ynput\AYON\dependency_packages\ayon_2501211400_windows.zip\dependencies\pyblish\plugin.py", line 528, in __explicit_process
    runner(*args)
  File "C:\Users\joseph.henry\AppData\Local\Ynput\AYON\addons\maya_0.4.2\ayon_maya\plugins\publish\validate_render_image_rule.py", line 40, in process
    raise PublishValidationError(
ayon_core.pipeline.publish.publish_plugins.PublishValidationError: Invalid workspace `images` file rule value: 'renders\maya'. Must be set to: 'C:\Users\JOSEPH~1.HEN\AppData\Local\Temp\ay_tmp_dp2pu9mn'

Then if I use the Repair button, this is the next error:

Invalid workspace `images` file rule value: 'C:\Users\JOSEPH~1.HEN\AppData\Local\Temp\ay_tmp_dp2pu9mn'. Must be set to: 'C:\Users\JOSEPH~1.HEN\AppData\Local\Temp\ay_tmp_726ku8fd'

Then the Repair action does nothing

Expected Behavior

I don't really understand the why

Steps To Reproduce:

1. Create a new Maya scene
2. Publish a render product

Additional context:

Version

ayon-core: 1.0.14
ayon-maya: 0.4.2

What platform were you running when you found the bug?

Windows 10

What is strange is that the workspace value for images is defined here:

ayon-maya/server/settings/main.py

Line 86 in 1d29cc7

'workspace -fr "images" "renders/maya";',

but then it is set to a temporary folder. Why is that?
