Installation Problem Inventor 2014 using network licence

Anonymous — Sun, 22 May 2016 12:58:37 GMT

Hi All

I am trying to install Inventor 2014 in a school environment. I have set up the server using the "single License Server" method and when I check the service is running it tells me it is and that I have 3000 licenses to access. I then go to my desktop and try to install the actual software, choose Network for License Type, Single License Server for Network License and browse and find the name of the server hosting the licence. The issue is that the Next button isnt becoming available so I can go no further with the installation. Does anyone have any ideas on what I am doing wrong? I have attached a screen shot to show what I mean

Hi Mark

No I hadnt put in the serial number as I thought that pointing to the network server would cover that. Have now put it in and it appears to be working. Thank you for your advice re the image posting (for any future issues) and for your solution 🙂
