nfs-utils 1.3.3 : access denied by server while mounting

After upgrading my archlinux nfs server to nfs-utils 1.3.3, clients are unable to mount nfs exports.

On my client ubuntu 14.04, when mounting a share, it says :
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting ...

I find out exports located on / are not affected by this issue.

my /etc/exports :

/share 10.0.10.0/24(ro,no_subtree_check)   << It works
/home/john/Photos 10.0.10.0/24(ro,no_subtree_check) << access denied

The workaround is temporary downgrading nfs-utils to 1.3.2.

Any ideas ?

Check that the server is actually running with 'systemctl status nfs-server'. If it isn't then try to restart it.

nfs-server.service is ok and tried to restart many times.
I don't encounter this issue with archlinux clients, but only with ubuntu clients.
It seems there is a issue between client and server version.
I have forced ubuntu clients to use nfsv3.
