Help on licensing for multiple Autodesk products

[ILT_HCHFE]

Hi, Hope someone can help,

We have (Educational) versions of Autocad 2014 in use and we now need to install the following Autodesk products alongside Autocad 2014:

Autocad 2015,
3ds Max Design 2015,
Alias Design 2015,
Showcase 2015  
Mudbox 2015

The existing licensing setup is via a Flexnet server which has been upgraded to the NLM 11.12, but when we run the "Autocad 2015" we get the (License invalid 0,0,0) error message.

All the 2015 software was setup for a distributed deployment with all relevant serial keys and license server name, we can ping the server via IP address and host name ok so I am assuming it cant find a license file on the server for the these products ?

The license file in the C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD 2014\LICPATH.LIC is correctly formatted ie:
SERVER license-server 000000000000
USE_SERVER

In laymans terms am i missing something where i have to enter license files for each 2015 product on the flexnet server or is there a license file we can download which covers all products so to speak ??  (Including the existing AutoCad 2014 licenses)

Hope someone can point me in the right direction as i seem to be going round in circles.

Many Thanks in advance...

I suspect that your adskflex.exe version did not successfully update to 11.12.  Check that in the status enquiry.  It should tell you.

Thanks, I'll take a look.

I was also informed we should have combined our licenses as our current one only covers the 2014 version of autocad so the 2015 clients have no licenses to check out.

Thanks for the help.

Excellent!  Glad you are on the right track.
