Autodesk 2011 network license issue

I have setup a 2011 64 network deployment that works fine with our shared network licenses.  When I try to do a 32 bit deployment the installation seems to go fine but when trying to run AutoCAD on the workstation it acts as a standalone installation and asks  you to activate.  It then insists that the serial number is not valid.  I also tried to do a deployment for 2010 and encountered the same error for that network serial number also.  It gives the error as "Error 123".

Seems as though your network deployment is created as a stand-alone install rather than a network install.  You may need to modify or remake your deployment image.

Ok.  That was it.  I had to click on configure when I got to the create deployments page where standalone was the default option.  I don't recall doing that with the 64 bit install ...

Glad you got it up and running.  The 2012 products ask you instead of making you search for it, which is a huge plus.

OK, thanks. 

 

Now I'm wondering if I used the standalone serial number in the 64 bit deployment I used and that is why it is working fine.  Guess I better check that!

So long as it is a valid serial number and it is configured as a network install, it really shouldn't matter.  It will grab the license from the NLM.  Smiley Wink
