License Failure....

[Anonymous]

Just installed Fabrication and AutoCad 2018. Upon getting in to the program, everything looked normal. Shortly after I noticed some of my commands wasn't working. Then I got to working on trying to place product, per normal means in the service menu, and nothing would populate. So I tried to right click and place object that way. Then I got the error message "Licence Warning /Licence failure/ This application will now close - Please save any changes first"(backslashes inserted to denoted different lines). What's going on. We have a full recurring licence for our whole office, with several Autodesk Products. Why is mine the only one having this issue?

Attached is a shot of the error message.

Network license or Standalone?

Looks like you have network licenses.  For whatever reason your computer lost connection to the server.  Or possibly the license server was stopped and re-started.  Your computer will eventually detect that and shut the software down.

I do believe that it is a network license. Although I'm not totally sure, I have reached out to another team member that does most of the computer maintenance in house for more info on our set up and how he updated everything, He did say that he had to reinstall 3 times to get it to load "correctly". I'm thinking the network code may need to be updated from the server side. Don't know how all that works exactly. Using 2016 until it gets figured out.

Have you restarted the network or any links to your connection to the internet?

We restart our connection daily. We shut down at the end of the work day. The program has been reinstalled a total of 3 times now. Still don't know what's up.

Sounds like your contract manager or software coordinator for your subscription never assigned the use of Fab CAD MEP to your Autodesk Account
