How to pause the Licensing Service from updating on Linux
Hi Licensing Forum
I have been trying to love my problem with my Maya 2024 installation on Fedora 41 for a while now, and I think I may have come to a breakthrough discovery. I keep getting the ADSK_STATUS_LICENSE_CHECKOUT_ERROR message for a while now and I was stumped for a while on how to fix this issue after reading log files and researching. However upon finding out fellow Fedora users have managed to get Maya running on their systems after upgrading to Fedora 41, and after uninstalling and reinstalling the licensing service rpm packages included with the Maya 2024 V2 release, I managed to get Maya working again on my system! But after I wake up my computer from sleeping or log out and log back in, the installation breaks again with the same error. I later found out that the adsk licensing service must have installed new packages in the background, since after doing a dnf list before and after, I realized there were new packages, not included with my installation. I assuming that the licensing service must have installed these new packages, and I do not want them to come into my system.
So as I continue to find out how to containerize the licensing service, in the meantime, I am wondering if I can stop the licensing service from updating or installing new packages in the background so I can keep working on Maya projects on Fedora 41. Is there a command or configuration file I can look at to stop the service from installing any new packages? If there is nothing I can do and this must happen, is there something specific to Fedora 41 that is breaking the licensing service? Should I make some new symlinks to fix this?
Attached to this post is a before and after screenshot of the packages that were installed and some log files
Thanks
