Missing Flexnet Service

Anonymous · ‎05-19-2016

I am missing the "Flexnet Licensing Service" service. I have the "Flexnet Licensing Service 64" service. Are there files I can download to resolve the issue?

Welcome to the community, @Anonymous

The reason you don't have it is because you don't have any 32bit application that needs the 32bit flexnet engine. You can disregard not having it.

In addition, if you're referring to the "Launching program results in Softlock License Manager error" then the licensing mechanism is screwed up which mean you'll need to perform a CLEAN UNINSTALL/REINSTALL.

Receiving the following error. It's been years since i have messed with AutoCAD LM services, but it seems you may need the licensing service to be present in order to issues licenses. Please correct me if i am wrong.
