License server selector

[ruud]

Trying to start up Smoke 2015-3 I suddenly get the message:

"Smoke was unable to get a license"

The license server is not running.

And indeed the License server (ADLM) is giving a red sign.

I have no idea to get this straight. I'm running OSX 10.8.5 From the forum I get the idea that it might have to do with the network port. I changed it last weekend, but after that Smoke has been running fine several days.

Is there someone who knows how to solve this?

Just giving it a chance, I inactivated the network port, rebooted and after that Smoke seems to work fine again.

Weird,

but happy.

Hi,

What happened to your computer? does it have new network ports? licensing is based of the MAC address of your primary ethernet port.

Can you post the first 3 lines of your license? /usr/local/flexnetserver/adsk_server.lic

Also attach the adlm logs.

/var/log/autodesk/adlm_flexnetserver.log

/var/log/autodesk/Adlm.log

Finally, send the output of the terminal command 

ifconfig

cheers

SERVER localhost e80688ca206c
USE_SERVER
VENDOR adskflex port=2080

Thanx for helping me out.

Hi,

Looks like you sorted it out. The license server log shows it working fine.

Was Ethernet1 (en0) not active before?

cheers

Hi Jaseo,

Ethernet 1 has always been active on this computer.
It was, by making it inactive, that the license server was able to start.
After that I have put it to active again.

regards, Ruud
and thanks for your support.
