During deployment, user commonly encounters errors like "Unlicensed Version".
This error occurs due to several reasons, such as:
- Incorrect Runtime license key
- Spacebar in the end of Runtime license key due to copy and paste
- Install Intersoft product in production server
This topic will guide you on how to overcome general licensing issue on deployment
phase.
To handle general licensing issue on deployment phase
- Incorrect Runtime license key
When you deploy your project using Deployment Manager, you are
required to input the Runtime license key. When you input the license key incorrectly,
the tool will not alert any error. But, the error "Unlicensed Version"
will occur in your production server during deployment. Just remember that the
Runtime license key format is like following: 12AB3-12AB-12AB3.
- Spacebar issue in Runtime license key
When you input the correct Runtime license key, the error "Unlicensed Version"
still occurs. It is due to the spacebar added in the Runtime license
key during inputting. Sometimes when we copy and paste the key, it will somehow
add a spacebar in the end of the license key. It is better to re-check
after you copy and paste the Runtime license key.
- Install Intersoft product in production server
When you install Intersoft product in production server, the error "Unlicensed
Version" will occur. It is because Intersoft product will always look
for its license in the registry. It will automatically search for design time license
key for development environment. Since we only provide runtime license key for deployment
purpose, Intersoft product will detect its components as an unlicensed version.
Therefore, it is recommended not to install any Intersoft product in the production
server during deployment.
