License Error

Brunel
Brunel over 6 years ago

When I run the software I am getting the following error

Retrieval of 'Allegro PCB_Design Planner' license failed:

'ERROR (LMF-13018): License call failed for feature

Allegro PCB_Design Planner. The license server search path is

defined as <none> The FLEXnet error message is as follows,

FLEXnet ERROR(-18, 234, 0): License server system does not

support this feature.


Run 'lic error LMF-13018' for more information.'. Repot the

licenses in use log Via the menu item File-» Viewlog:

license_use.log

When I use the License Utility it is showing the correct port and server for the license, I have also checked the System Variable and this is also correct, btw I am running a silent install for this

Any Ideas?

    Allegro Design Planner is a specific product and has it's own license. And it looks like you don't have a license for that. You, more likely, want to be starting PCB Editor for the PCB tools. How the products were installed will have no bearing on what licenses are available from the license server.
