S32 Design Studio Offline activation issue hot fix

[#1]

Problem description

When installing S32 Design Studio using the offline activation method (Offline activation on S32 ) the installer may pop up an error dialog: " Error: "Invalid offline response, ResponseType"." This typically occurs on the computers that have no previous installation of S32 Design Studio.

 

Affected versions

S32DS for ARM v1.1, v1.2, v1.3

S32DS for Power v1.1

S32DS for Vision v1.0

Newer versions should include the fix already.

Solution

Option A) Easiest solution is to use online method instead of offline. But in some cases it may not be possible (LAN restrictions, computer is not connected to the Internet or there is some other network obstacle etc.)

Option B) Apply the hot fix attached. See the instructions below how to proceed for Windows and Linux (Ubuntu) users

Windows users

• Download and extract the attached archive file "licfix.zip" to your local machine (same package for Windows and Linux)
• Run "clean.bat" to reset trusted storage 

• Run "setts.bat" to run the activation fix and enter your activation ID for the product you need to activate

• Select offline activation type and save generated "request.xml" file

• Submit generated "request.xml" to your nxp.com account offline activation section and generate activation response "activation.xml"

• Save the created activation response, refresh the Activation response dialog and select the saved file
• 
• The script is then successfully terminated and now you should be able to install S32 Design Studio

Linux (Ubuntu) users

• Download and extract the attached archive file "licfix.zip" to your local machine (same package for Windows and Linux)
• Add the executable right to configure.sh script

chmod 777 configure.sh

• Run the script as admin with parameter "install" to install appropriate libraries

sudo ./configure.sh install

• Run the script as admin with parameter "reset" to reset trusted storage into its initial state 

  sudo ./configure.sh reset

  

• Run the script as admin with parameter "activate" to proceed to activation process
  

  sudo ./configure.sh activate

• Enter your activation ID for the product you need to activate

• Select offline activation type and save generated "request.xml" file

• Submit generated "request.xml" to your nxp.com account offline activation section and generate activation response "activation.xml"

• After this step the script should be terminated without any error message.

Now you should be able to install S32 Design Studio on your computer.

Special thanks to denisrobert and zhongzhengliu for your help with fix testing and to all of you who reported this nasty issue. Thank you!!!

Hello Stan

I've tried this method,but it didn't work. It seems that the license can not be detected,and I still need to enter an activation code, but I got "Activation ID is already used on this station", could you help me?

Best regards,

Michael Von

Finally I solved this problem!

The ID I used before is unavailable,I ran licfix with ID:C699-XXXX-XXXX-E800 , after this process ,the installtion succeeded.

[teodor_hamnholm]

This is not working for me, tried both in Windows 10 and Ubuntu Linux. I get the same error as before for both online and offline activation. Tried with several activation codes given to me by NXP-staff.

Here I have a problem, 

S32 Design Studio V1.2 starts failed after Offline activation installation, although there is information says the installation is successful. After the installation, I double click the icon to start the S32DS V1.2 IDE on my 64bit computer, which runs on a windows 7 OS, then it appears the information"An error has occurred.See the log file D:\software\s32_power_win32_v1.2\eclipse\configuration\1587541348989.log.", when I install it on a x86 computer, it starts normally after my double click the icon.

How to solve this problem under an Offline activation installation method? 

Thank you.

                                                                                                                                       yours Jakie.

Where is the "HOT FIX" attached? ........ as described above?

[stanish]

Please check the bottom of the original message.

Hi, 

This problem does not seems to be related to the activation since the generated XML response is ok.

It rather seems like an eclipse is missing some plugins. Can you try to download the installer again and try to reinstall S32DS.

I'd suggest you to install the lateset greatest version:

https://community.nxp.com/docs/DOC-343864 

Regards,

S.

[littlepirate66]

Sorry to bother you.

I also encountered problems with the installation(S32DS_PA V2.1).

I also tried the relevant solutions in the community, but I couldn't solve the problem.

Thanks in advance for your help.
