Codewarrior license problem

stefanorocca — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 00:41:51 GMT

Hello to all,

I purchased a CWA-PRO-FL codewarrior suite.

My PC is not a server: it is only a PC (windows XP professional based) connected to the internet via an ethernet card.

I tried to activate it: received the license.dat file and loaded it in the codewarrior directory.

When I run the program, I get the following error:

The CodeWarrior IDE is licensed and a valid license key was not found

Please contact ....

Network connect to THIS_HOST failed

The license file indicates THIS_HOST, and the server is not running on this host.

If it's running on a different host, THIS HOST sould be changed to the correct host.

Feature: Win32_CWIDE_Limited

License pat

Could my problem resides in the fact that my PC is not a server?

Hello Stefano,

In fact you have purchased Floating License CodeWarrior suite. In contrast to nodelocked license which works only on one PC, floating license allows you to run licensed CodeWarrior development tool on any computer within a LAN network.

In order to use this license you have to configure your PC to be the licensing server. In doesn't metter that it's the same PC where you will run CodeWarrior.

Attached instructions may help you to do it.

I'd suggest you to replace THIS_HOST string within your license.dat (SERVER line) by IP address or host name of your PC.

Problem solved.

The Customer Support changes my license to a node locked (NL) version.
