Activating indesign server 5.5

When we try to activate using adobe_prtk with leid as indesingserver-cs5.5-win-gm we get return code=1. What should be to activate

Why install a localized version of Server?
You can replace or rename the default job options files with the english versions.

I am facing difficulties activating InDesign CS6 server

I'd like to share with you my frustration about InDesign CS6 Server which tries to do the very same as shown above, but apparenty noone at Adobe did think about the fact that ID Server has NO GUI. So as a customer youre left with an Installation that provides NO means for later offline activation, but provides the very same link at installation, basically guiding you through a process that can not be accomplished with ID Server by any means.
Moreover, the Installer claims there is a 7-day grace period until you MUST have activated your license but even with entering a valid code the Server wont start from second ONE, stating "Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit". This sort of misdesign is what makes customers furious! And then they wonder why people use circumvention technologies.

Hi Detlef,
    For offline installation scenarios of InDesignserver, if activation is not done while installation, then as a user we need a utility named "Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Toolkit (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html) " for activating InDesignServer.
For usage of Provisioning Toolkit, please refer "http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/creativesuite/pdfs/Ad obe_Provisioning_Toolkit_Enterprise_Edition_v5.pdf"
Using the specified utility, 1st generate the Request Code, use this Request code to generate a response code on site "http://www.adobe.com/go/getactivated". Then use that response code in the Provisioning toolkit, to activate InDesignServer.
Please, do follow following steps:-
Now type the following command in that Terminal/Command Prompt window
Set directory to adobe_prtk and type below command
                      adobe_prtk --tool=Type1Exception --generate --serial=1111111111111111111111111 --leid=InDesignServer-CS6-Win\Mac-GM
This will generate a Request Code something like : - YXpex7HpnjTKTG9yK4kK/BE/VmeAKJrh
Now go tohttp://www.adobe.com/go/getactivated on some another online machine.
Ø Login with your adobe ID and password the click on “Generate Response Code”.
Ø Now enter Request code and Serial number (using which you have generated Request Code), click “Generate Response Code” button.
Ø It will give you a Response code, eg: - jnGVmMxU0IkIBv324qhALnT2Yt9RhyCBr8hTtJBAtBs=
Ø Now type the following command in command prompt/terminal.
                   adobe_prtk --tool=Type1Exception --accept --serial=11111111111111111111 --responsecode=jnGVmMxU0IkIBv324qhALnT2 Yt9RhyCBr8hTtJBAtBs= --leid=InDesignServer-CS6-Mac-GM
you will get the following message:
                Copyright 2012 Adobe Systems Incorporated
                All rights reserved.
                Return Code = 0
It shows that the InDesign Server has been successfully activated

Comment activer la licence de démonstration sur InDesign Server CS6 ?

Bonjour,
Au démarrage d'InDesign Server CS6 sous MacOSX, j'obtiens l'erreur :
ERREUR [serveur] Adobe InDesign Server a détecté une anomalie de licence et va s'arrêter.
Après quelques recherches, j'ai créé un pack d'installation Trial avec Application Manager Entreprise.
Le problème reste le même avec cette installation.
Une solution à me proposer ?

Et oui c'est ce que j'ai fini par trouver
InDesign Server Trial not Licensing
Et évidemment, il faut remplacer Win par Mac sur un OS Mac
Merci de ton intérêt et de ta réponse

InDesign Server CS6 (MacOS) - JavaScripting & Troubleshooting "Bus error" or "Segmentation fault"

I'm attempting to convert a workflow from InDesign CS5.5 Desktop with AppleScript to InDesign Server CS6 with JavaScript. It seems most of our templates work fine but every now and then I run into one that seems to work properly but right after we export to PDF and JPG which is the final step in the script I get either a Bus error or a Segmentation fault error. The files do export and the console sits idle for a few seconds then I get the crash. It doesn't seem to give me anything else and I can't find a crash dump or core file anywhere on disk to examine.
The exact same input files on InDesign CS5.5 Desktop completing a very similar automation task via AppleScript work without an issue or error. I'm not certain if it's a problem with the way the InDesign files were put together, a version problem between a CS5.5 file and CS6, or something that I'm doing wrong in the script.
Is there a way to get InDesign Server to go into debug or verbose mode so that it will show more than just two word errors on crash? I've read a few people talking here about the debug version but every path I've found to get access to the debug version runs into a roadblock with a bad link.
I would appreciate a point in the current right direction for how to debug these templates this script.

Re: verbose mode. These are not InDesign error messages. They are system errors, saying that an app (InDesign?) crashed, went away, hence could not issue any kind of message. Crash logs are the place to start. If they don't help, and the crash is outside your code, after that it's over to the maintainer (Adobe?)
Worth sharing a suitable crash log, as the list of routines active at the crash can narrow down issues.

InDesign Server Automation

I'm looking into purchasing InDesign Server for the document automation features. One feature, Data Merge, would be a tremendous help for our company.
I'm having some trouble setting it up with a script.
Here's what I have running, just a basic test.
var myDocument = app.open(File("C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\indesign\\test.indd"));
with (app.dataMergeOptions) {
linkImages = true;
removeBlankLines = false;
createNewDocument = true;
documentSize = 100;
} // (end of dataMergeOptions)
myDocument.dataMergeProperties.mergeRecords();
myDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, File ("c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\indesign\\merged.pdf"));
myDocument.close ();
In the file I had it linked to a csv that pulled data but it seems the link has been broken (or out of date according to the error).
Can anyone help me with what I am doing wrong or even provide a better method?
I am running the script through PHP via SOAP in IIS running on Windows 2008 R2
InDesign Server CC 2014

Thank you for your post Loic.Aigon.
After I stumbled upon this post javascript - InDesign Script: export to IDML - Stack Overflow I found the option dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource(csv file).
Here's my updated code, sorry for the missing formatting.
var myDocument = app.open(File("C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\indesign\\test.indd"));
var myDataSource = File("C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\indesign\\test.csv");
with (app.dataMergeOptions) {
linkImages = true;
removeBlankLines = false;
createNewDocument = true;
documentSize = 100;
} // (end of dataMergeOptions)
myDocument.dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource(myDataSource);
myDocument.dataMergeProperties.mergeRecords();
app.activeDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, File ("/c/inetpub/wwwroot/indesign/merged2.pdf"));
//myDocument.save(new File("C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\indesign\\mergedOutput.idml"));
myDocument.close ();
if I run myDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, File ("/c/inetpub/wwwroot/indesign/merged2.pdf")); then it tries to merge but throws a warning [link manager Link out of date: file: and links the original csv file it was created with (not my referenced data source file).
I believe I should merge on the active document and not the original document.
But if I run app.activeDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, File ("/c/inetpub/wwwroot/indesign/merged2.pdf")); it throws a javascript error, app.activeDocument is undefined.

I have spent some time geting Java automation to work with InDesign, it's not my favorite language but I learned some things that may help and put them into some course content that Adobe should put out shortly; will post here when it is available online.
Our company, Silicon Publishing, provides general InDesign Server automation training, though we don't have a current offering that specifically targets Java we teach some of the basics of working with Java (many unique techniques!) and could arrange a limited form of training.
The documentation and samples with the SDK should take you part of the way there: for specific scripts, it has been helpful to us to get things working in an easier-to-write (i.e. JavaScript) script first, then translate such a script to Java, taking into account the unique characteristics of the language and various tactics (outlined in the SDK documentation) to address these.

Indesign Server CC Trial issues

The installation instructions states
You need to download Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition (APTEE) for using the InDesign Server trial
The download link only refers to CS6, CS5.5 & CS5 not CC
Since there is no Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition for CC I decided just to install and run the trial.
However I got the Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit message.
According to the CC Release notes it says:
InDesign CC Server needs to be activated before it can be used. If the computer is online, activation is done automatically when you install. You need to provide your Adobe ID, and serial number when prompted by the installer. Unless the software is activated, you'll see an error, "Adobe InDesign Server’ is not properly licensed and will now quit."
My computer was online yet the it seems it didn't perfom the automatic activation as it suggests. When I entered my AdobeID credentials I did not get any errors saying it could not connect online.
So I had to do something and decided to use the Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition for CS6.
This allowed me to get pass the licensing issue.
The next problem was I was getting DDE Server Window:InDesignServer.exe System Error popup. Telling me The program can't start because svml_dispmd.dll is missing from your computer.

So after browsing the net to see where I can get this missing svml_dispmd.dll I found this post http://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/topic/285859
and decided to install what it suggested.
I still got the missing dll error so I copied it from C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Intel\Shared Libraries\redist\intel64\compiler into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server x64
Now it just sits there and hangs at the same spot
11/28/13 08:09:08 INFO [javascript] Executing File: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server x64\Scripts\converturltohyperlink\ConvertURLToHyperlinkMenuItem.jsxbin
What the heck is going on here?
I have installed Indesign Server CC on another machine and although I did not get the missing dll problem it still however hangs at the same spot mentioned above.
Could someone from Adobe please help. The already I'm losing days with this trial and I will have little days left to test this product.

I'm having same trial activation difficulties. How have you activated it with APTEE? What leid did you use?
Thank you.
UPDATE: Never mind. I found it and activated server by executing:
"adobe_prtk.exe --tool=StartTrial --leid=InDesignServer-CS7-Win-GM"

Indesign Server CS5 Multiple instance - Urgent, Please help!

Hi,
I am using a windows service to access the indesign server. The instance is created like below.
        Dim oType As Type = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("InDesignServer.Application")
        If oType IsNot Nothing Then
                 Return Activator.CreateInstance(oType)
        End If
If already an instance is created by some other application, then my service is not able to create an instance. I get the following error from the COM
"Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {96D10A00-63E3-423E-A223-DFC4BEA21206} failed due to the following error: 80080005."
In some article i read that instance can be created by different port numbers and different configuration.
Is there anyway in VB.net to create an instance like that and will it solve the multiple instance problem ?
Regards,
Karthik B

The solution on that site looks pretty good in theory.
What did you do to implement it?
Did you return a forward page from your executeSynchro method which you overrode to implement it?

InDesign Server CC2014 Trial issue

Hi,
I cannot start our InDesign Server CC 2014 (Windows Server 2008). I have installed the software and was logged with our Adobe ID and installation was successful without any error message. The installation manual states that “InDesign CC Server needs to be activated before it can be used. If the computer is online, activation is done automatically when you install.” However, I got an error message when I tried to launch InDesign Server: “Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit”.
Since I had previously installed InDesign Server CS6 on another machine, I tried to use the APTEE to start the trial. I used the CS6 one because I did not find any version for CC 2014, I finally got the message:
StartTrial Successful
Return Code = 0
but when I tried to launch again InDesign Server, I always get the Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit message.
I also read this thread but did not find the solution Indesign Server CC Trial issues
Thanks for help!

We got the answer hereReturn code 6 when trying to activate trial of InDesignCC Server 2014

Indesign server CC trial help

I have programmed Applescript and Indesign for desktop for years.
I have a solution that should work well with Indesign server and applescript.
Downloaded the Trial for Indesign Server CC.
Then you have to figure out how to activate the product, which i think i have done via this command :
adobe_prtk --tool=StartTrial --leid=InDesignServer-CS7-Mac-GM
Now that its not compaining about being activated i can see that the sample applescripts provided in the install can compile.
If i run them however i get a failiure thats odd.
tell application "Finder"
          get startup disk
                    --> "CWFM1:"
          exists "CWFM1:ServerTestFiles"
                    --> true
          exists "CWFM1:ServerTestFiles:bob.indd"
                    --> false
end tell
tell application "InDesignServer"
          close every document saving no
          make new document
                    --> document "Untitled 3"
          save document "Untitled 3" to "CWFM1:ServerTestFiles:bob.indd"
                    --> error number -1728
Result:
error "InDesignServer got an error: Can’t get document \"Untitled 3\"." number -1728 from document "Untitled 3"
The folder is chmod'd to 777 so its not a read write issue.
if i just use the normal open command in applescript i get this error :
The document “bob.indd” could not be opened. InDesignServer cannot open files of this type.
which is just odd. its a normal empty indesign document with nothing in it!
has anyone got ideas?
Server is MacMini i7 with 16gb ram, OS X 10.8.5 server.

Ok, i uninstalled indesign server CC and found a copy of the Trial CS6 indesign server. that works fine. must be a bug in CC. Joy....

I don't have a server at hand right now ( that machine is busy with an OSX install, on a different partition ) but you could start by looking for any Adobe document that even mentions VC++ 2008.
In other words, at least for the desktop version of CS4 the oficial compiler is the VC 2005 SP1 .
Express should be no problem, I use it myself: "VS80sp1-KB926748-X86-INTL.exe"
You'll also need the matching Windows SDK. Watch out for something labeled "5.2.3790.2075.51.PlatformSDK_Svr2003R2_rtm.dmg"
Hth,
Dirk
Afterthought: funny that this thread always pops up when my experimental machine is busy ;-)

[IDS Win]How to flush Indesign server.

Hi All,
I am using Indesign server to create documents which contains text, images & tables. My job is to create & export documents to pdf. Document are sometimes contains 300 plus pages. And cs2 server process this jobs one after the other in queue ..may be 100 jobs in a queue. Here after certain amount of time a 'out of memory' error comes up and Indesign server gets crashed(its around after processing 30-40 jobs).
I have taken care to delete all allocated meomary in my program through New- delete pair. Still after each job allocated memory to Indesign keeps increasing.
Is there any way so that I can purge memory from Indesign after my job complition? I tried to use 'PurgeMemory' over IDocumentList but its not that effective.
Any suggestions are most welcommed!
Thanks,
Rahul.

Well, it's been two years since the last activity in this thread, and I am having this exact same problem with InDesign Server CS4.
I have a .NET web application that calls the IDS through SOAP and simply tells it to run a JavaScript. In simple terms, the script opens an InDesign file, imports some XML, makes some minor formatting changes, and exports the PDF to the filesystem. The .NET webapp then receives the status message and redirects the user directly to the finished PDF which they can then view/save/etc.
This all works perfectly, but while it's running, I see the memory usage of InDesignServer.exe spike by several MB, and then it settles back down to a still-higher-than-initial value. Eventually, the InDesignServer.exe is taking up several hundred MB and my server starts giving out-of-memory errors.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Like the original poster asked, it appears as though I should be flushing something that I am not. I've researched this "ErrorList" that was referenced, and my memory "leak" seems to be bigger than this (although I could be wrong), but I can't find anything in the language reference on how to programmatically flush this after each document. I'm not even sure if this is the culprit.
Can anybody help? Many many thanks in advance

New to InDesign Server

Hi,
I use InDesign CS2 and also have access to an InDesign CS2 Server.
On my desktop CS2 I use scripts and the InEventScript plugin from RogueSheep to automatically run javascript scripts on certain events such as export to PDF.
How would I go about getting InDesign Server to run the same scripts on the same or similar events.
Thanks
Simon Kemp

My understanding of the concept is:
The only way that the server will export to PDF (or perform any of the triggering actions) is if you tell it to either with a SOAP command or a script, so given that you are already controlling the event you can add a call to your script in association with the call you're already making.
On the desktop, the user triggers such events independently and hence the need for InEventScript, but with the server, there is no such independent activity.
Or so it seems to me. I've never thought about this before.

Adobe Indesign Server is not properly licensed.

I am having trouble activating Indesign CC server 2014,StartTrial Successful Return code = 0, however i get this: ERROR [server] Adobe Indesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit. How do i resolve this issue?

I'm afraid I know nothing about setting up or running Server (and there are not a lot of users on this particular forum who will). I suspect you'll have better luck asking in the scripting forum: InDesign Scripting

Visual Studio compiling 64 Bit Plugin for InDesign Server CS5

Hello guys,
Again I have a problem compiling 64 bit plugins, but this time in windows environments, the 32 bit compiling works fine (also on 64 bit machines). The first thing I've done was creating a new project configuration for 64 bit environments copying the 32 bit settings. Now I changed the precompiled libraries to use the 64 bit ones and changed the output directories. After that the compilation process completed without errors, but the resource files have not been copied to the output directory (the directory for them has been created, but it remains empty). Adding the created plugin into the servers directory ends up with a server message that the plugin could not be recognized. Have I missed something that is necessary for compiling 64 bit plugins?
I'm using the 64 Bit Developer Version of the indesign server CS5. The operating system is a Windows Server 2008 x64 R2 with Visual Studio 2008.
Thanks!
P.S. a plugin compiled with 32 bit settings (including 32 bit libraries) also works for the 64 bit version of the server, so does it make any difference if I'm using 32 bit or 64 bit libraries?

The libraries were all correct (all using 64-bit). The problem was a pathing issue. libxml2 needs iconv.dll, but it couldn't find the 64-bit version that I built. Once it found it, everything worked correctly.
The funny thing about depends.exe is that it isn't right all the time. For example, if you open one of the 64-bit .aip files that ships with Illustrator (rename it to .dll first), you'll see what I'm talking about. It complains that you're mixing x86 and x64 CPU types, even though you're not.
The program I used to discover my issue is Process Monitor (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx). I've been using it for years and love it.
