Hi zhangjing711@126.com‌,

I would not go to extreme: windows reinstall. We have not understood the root cause of the failure yet.

According with this: https://community.nxp.com/message/941909?commentID=941909%23comment-941909#comment-908767 your error message means:

-1
Cannot find license file.

For your screenshot it seems you have used a custom install path. The default one is: C:\MBDToolbox\mbdtbx_MPC574xP

Perhaps that extra " space " might be causing something bad.

Can you please install the toolbox again in the default path suggested by the installer ?

Thank you!

Daniel

Hi zhangjing711@126.com‌,

The NXP Model-Based Design Toolbox is free of charge but it still require you to own a license to work.

The license can be downloaded for free your NXP account.

How to get and install the license procedure is shown in this video:  Video Link : 7692 starting with 3'15" (same video is also available on YOUKU)

Short tutorial below:

Step 1: Log in into your NXP's account;

Step 2: Select the MBDT link you wish to generate the license for:

Step 3: Select the License Keys Tab:

Step 8: Restart MATLAB and have fun!!!

A longer version of the NXP's licensing can be found here.

Hope this helps!

Hello dear Mr.dumitru-daniel.popa,

I just install the MBD toolbox in the right way, but the problem still exists, so I'm also confused, could you please have a look at all the pics. Thank you~~

Hi zhangjing711@126.com‌,

Have you placed the file into the mbdtbx_MPC574xP\lic folder ?

Also, please make sure the license extension is license.lic

Then, you could try to re-run the mbd_pnt_path.m script and restart MATLAB

Apart of these, once you pass the license you should try to update the build tools to use one of the latest S32 Design Studio and then apply this patch: https://community.nxp.com/thread/451804#comment-916493 

Let me know if this works!

Best regards,
Daniel

Do you have an A: or B: drive installed?


Do not just navigate to the C: drive.

Navigate to mbdtbx_MPC574xP\tools\mlt


Run  !lmhostid.exe vsn

That is the number you should use to generate your license with. 

Additionally it is trivially easy to disable the licensing all together. Dig through the scripts and all of the licensing ones are aptly named.
