Can not use Demo lic
« on: April 20, 2013, 09:57 »
Dear Sir,
I want to use atk-12.8.2 with Demo lic (# Demo license for ATK 12.8, valid until 2013-05-16
), I did like this:
Windows system start -> QuantumWise -> ATK License Server -> ATK License Configuration,
choose  Standalone

but error happens, like the attachment shows
I wonder the reason.
Thanks~

Looks like a spelling mistake in the environment variable (Progran Files instead of Program Files). It's recommended to use the "..." file locator button instead of typing in the filename of the license file, then you avoid simple mistakes like this.

Dear Sir, thanks for you reply.
but I don't quite understand it. You said "It's recommended to use the "..." file locator button instead of typing in the filename of the license file". Could you say it more detail ?   Thanks~

Thanks for your reply,
I did as you said, but it still can not work.
my license file is located in C:\lic\atklic\qw_license.lic

when I click vnl, the same error message happens.

1. Check the fireware installed on your computer.
2. Following the manual of install license and try it again, because mostly you may miss one of the steps: http://quantumwise.com/documents/manuals/latest/InstallationGuide/index.html/chap.licensing.html#sect1.licensing.managing

Try to undefine the LMX version of the environment variable, it's confusing to have both. Otherwise, check the details - that the license file exists and is readable by the current user (and is the correct file, with the correct expiry date).
