Invalid license file

I'm setting up Prime Infrastructure and have it up, licensed and running. I've done nothing but that so far. I've now setup my Mobility Services Engine and am trying to install the license.
I have added MSE to Prime.
I have gone to https://tools.cisco.com/SWIFT/LicensingUI/Quickstart and selected the l-mse-7.0-k9 pak
I activated the license and downloaded the license file.
When I try to apply the license I receive the following error: Invalid license file, UDI mismatch
I did not get a service contract with the MSE or Prime, so I can't open a TAC case. Any help on how to get the license problem resolved would be great.

Problem is it keeps asking for a support contract, which there isn't one. I know how to open a support case. I would like to know how to open one without the contract, or some other way of getting this resolved. I believe I mentioned the lack of support contract in the initial post.

Installing essbase 7.1 and its getting error license file.

Hi,
I have license file in my folder and I wish to try to load Essbase 7.1 to my desktop PC windows based. I installed client and when I try to Install Essbase server, it asked license file. I have mentioned the file which it have loaded sucessfully in my windows server.
But if I am using that file in desktop, I am getting a Invalid license file.
Kindly help me what I need to do?
Thanks,
A.Dhans.

Hi,
I think in 7 version that too fro 7.1, we need to have a license server in place of license file.
kindly install license se4rver and then Essbase server.
Thanks,

MSE and license file

Hi.
I try install license file to Prime Infrastructure. Prime Infrastructure displays message: Invalid license file, no increment lines found or file is corrupted.
What does it mean? Must I get new license file?

Thank you for your answer Leo Laohoo. But....
I used a few license files. None is correct. What value should I set in the UDI field? I found in Prime Infrastructure this:
Device UDI "AIR-MSE-3355-K9:V02:XXXXXXX" (XXXXXXX - serial number). And used it.
But I still receive the message.

ERROR: invalid backup file version. Exception: Error while unzipping invalid wcs 7.x export file

Hi,
I'm having a serious issue with your brend new Cisco Prime Network Control System (NCS) and i would appreciate if someone could give me good answers.
After a background backup task failure, the database was entirelly corrupted and the oracle server no longuer wanted to start. And because of that the NCS web server is unusable, since no one can log in.
We tryed to restore to last known backup obtained after a former suucessful backup. But we get this error:
"ERROR: invalid backup file version. Exception: Error while unzipping invalid wcs 7.x export file"
All the lost data was previously migrated from the former WCS 7.x server. Before this issue everything was working fine.
So we think that the appliance is seeing the backup file from NCS as a WCS backup.
We need to find rapidly a solution. Here is our configuration:
We formerly had WCS 7.0.172.0 hosted on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2 with the above caracteristics:
Intel(R)Xeon(R) CPU 5120 @ 1.86Ghz 1.87Ghz 16GB of RAM.
We now have NCS Version 1.1.1.24 running under Cisco Application Deployment Engine
OS Release: 2.0
ADE-OS Build Version: 2.0.1.038
ADE-OS System Architecture: x86_64

I was getting this error too. TL;DR: When you transfer the wcs.zip file to your FTP server, make sure you are using BINARY mode... which is often NOT the default FTP mode.
Long Version:
TO GET THIS ERROR, what I had done was use the Windows CLI FTP command to transfer my "wcs.zip" to the NCS FTP server.
-----BEGIN WRONG STEPS-----
C:\ftp
ftp> open x.x.x.x
Connected to x.x.x.x.
220 Service ready for new user
User (x.x.x.x:(none)): ftp-user
331 User name okay, need password for ftp-user
Password:
230 User logged in, proceed
ftp> put wcs.zip
200 Command PORT okay
150 File status okay; about to open data connection
226 Closing data connection
ftp: 526768949 bytes sent blah blah etc
-----END WRONG STEPS-----
I would then run "ncs stop" and "ncs migrate" and get the "ERROR: invalid backup file version. Exception: Error while unzipping invalid wcs 7.x export file".
I remembered something from my misspent youth: Windows, for no good reason, likes to transfer files in ASCII mode. UNIX (which LINUX comes from) prefers BINARY, and the two do not like to negotiate.
TO FIX THIS, I had to just FTP in Binary mode.
-----BEGIN RIGHT STEPS-----
C:\ftp
ftp> open x.x.x.x
Connected to x.x.x.x.
220 Service ready for new user
User (x.x.x.x:(none)): ftp-user
331 User name okay, need password for ftp-user

200 Command PORT okay
150 File status okay; about to open data connection
226 Closing data connection
ftp: 526768949 bytes sent blah blah etc
-----END RIGHT STEPS-----
NOW when I enter "ncs stop" (actually... had to restart them... then stop them... x.x) and then the proper "ncs migrate" commands, I get a happy output and don't have to go home late troubleshooting this.

I hope this helps anyone banging their head against the WCS->PI1.3 install wall.
(Note, WCS needs to be migrated to NCS 1.1.1.24 (NOT NCS 1.1.3!!!!!) before you can migrate to Prime Infrastructure 1.2 or 1.3, because for no readily apparent reason the "ncs migrate" command was removed from PI 1.2 and up. Also note, there is no "Prime Infrastructure 1.1;" they just renamed NCS to Prime Infrastructure after NCS 1.1 because. Yes, the sentence ends there. Great products, all 3, just... agonizing to migrate.)

LMS 3.2 Invalid license error.

Hi there
I recently installed LMS3.2 in the setup process it asked me for the *.lic file which I provided. I then installed diffrent updates and patches for LMS. LMS is working int the common services tab. but anything else gives me a error: The license file is invalid. Please click this link for information about obtaining a valid purchase license or click here for current licensing information Otherwise, please contact your Cisco representative for purchasing information.
Can anyone give me a tip on how to fix this error and get all the modules working. The license is a full license for all the add ons.
Regards

you need to have to original license file
go to NMSROOT\etc\licenses and backout all the .lic files;
restart dmgtd (on Windows)
net stop crmdmgtd
net start crmdmgtd
after this procedure you should be able to login and re-install the original license file under
Common Services > Server > Admin > Licensing

Invalid License Key need help

I just installed kodo 3.0.1 using the windows installer, I also asked it to
install it in JBuilder9.
Then when I went into JBuilder I saw the Configure KODO JDO under tools
menu,
when I click on this selefction the dialog comes up OK
but when I try to close / OK this dialog I get an invliad license message.
One mistake I did was that I satarted JBuilder9 before I updated the
kodo.properties file.
I closed JBuiulder and then updated the properties file and tried Jbuyilder
again and got same invalid license message.
Can you tell me how to fix this ?
Thanks
Mousa Shaya

Thanks
It wasn't clear from the documentation that I needed to do that. I am using
3.0.0 docs and maybe that was the problem.
Anyway I had added the license to the properties file and as you mentioned I
added it to the General Tab and that solved the problem . I didn't see any
project tabs.
Thanks
Mousa

Mousa-
There may be two separate tabs ("Project" and "Global"), both of which
contain a license key field. If you enter the license key into both
there fields, do you still get the error?
If so, what exactly is the error?

Invalid license after moving software to a new computer; old version disengaged

I bought a new MacBook Pro. I copied PhotoShop Elements 10, along with other software, from my old Mac and added it to the new one. I got a request on the new Mac to enter the license. I did that and receive notice that the license was invalid. Some investigation revealed that I did not have permission to use the software on two computers. I disengaged the software on the old Mac. I'm still getting a request for the license, but every time I enter it, I get the same invalid license error message. I have emptied the cache and dumped cookies on my browser. What else can I do?
Any help much appreciate; thanks!

Your license does allow the use of the software on two computers. The problem is that you can never, never move an installed version of PSE. PSE is not a tidy package like most mac apps; its installer strews stuff all over your hard drive and you can never hope to get all the necessary bits and bobs. You must ALWAYS install PSE from scratch on a new machine.
By attempting to move it, you have made a lot more problems for yourself. Now you will need to download and run this:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
After which you can go around and manually remove all the PSE bits you've brought over. Look not only in Applications, but also in hard drive>library>Application Support>Adobe and also in your username>library>preferences. (You can't use spotlight to search. It's programmed to skip these kinds of files.)
After that you can reinstall from scratch.

License file for studio trial install

I just installed Studio (twice) for the 1st time and when I launch the app (from Windows) I see a dialog that says, "The existing license is invalid or expired" and a button to "Import License".
I used to have WLS 8.1 from 2005 but deleted that directory before installing. Any ideas why I'm being prompted for a license file?
Edited by bedfordd at 10/04/2007 9:25 AM

The eval license is generated by the installer. It is placed in the
bea.home directory (usually C:\bea in Windows). All products share the
same license file (licenses are merged in a single license.bea file, it's
an XML file).
See if you can locate it, if not, try re-installing.

UCCX License File

Thought the MAC Address is correct in the License File, it shows invalid MAC Address while uploading.

Hi Gibin,
You need to provide the License MAC address (from UCCX 8.x version) for getting the licenses from Cisco.
Hope it helps.

Invalid license data. Reinstall is required.

I am getting this error message when I attempt to open a ".sln" file.
The window title is "Visual Studio 2010 Shell".
I purchased sql Server Developer 2014 60 days ago. Have never installed Visual Studio on this computer.
I have followed all of the uninstall / reinstall instructions and the problem is persisting
It appears to be a very common error message by the google search. This is a show stopper for me and I am surprised that the solution is apparently so elusive. Please Help!

Does Phone NTP Server reference change my licensed files, (CUCM)?

Hi all,
Good day.
I just wanted to know of on my CUCM Admin web page, on PHONE NTP REFERENCE, if adding or deleting NTP's does make my CUCM to re-host my active licensed files.
Because I changed the NTP server on the CLI call manager, (delete it and added one). And now all my licenses are invalid
I have a few more questions.
Which are the differences between of the Phone NTP Reference Server and NTP reference servers (CLI)?
Which one I do not must change?
If mi licenses say "Invalid", what is the worst case scenario could happen with my current configurations of IP Phones/GW/GK/Trunks/CSS?
Thanks in advice.
John

I assume you are using a UCS server,,,
The license MAC is generated by hashing the following user-configured parameters:
◊ Time zone
◊ NTP server 1 (or ?none?)
◊ NIC speed (or ?auto?)
◊ Hostname
◊ IP Address (or ?dhcp?)
◊ IP Mask (or ?dhcp?)
◊ Gateway Address (or ?dhcp?)
◊ Primary DNS (or ?dhcp?)
◊ SMTP server (or ?none?)
◊ Certificate Information (Organization, Unit, Location, State, Country)
When you change any of the parameters that create the license MAC, the license that you obtained with it becomes invalid. You must request a rehosting of the license to obtain a valid license. The old license continues to work for a 30-day grace period.
To rehost your licenses, you must open a case with the licensing team. Contact the licensing team at [email protected]
During the grace period, you can change the settings back to the licensed values to make your original license valid again. If you need more than 30 days of grace period, change your settings back to the licensed values, then change them back to the new values that you want to use. You will get another 30- day grace period.

Installed license in the path, please correct me if i am wrong.

Invalid license for Java AS 7.01 SP03 J2EE-Engine_ADA

Hi,
I am having some problems with a license for a Java AS 7.01 SP03.
Licenses for J2EE-Engine_ADA and Maintenance_ADA has been generated as described in note 870871 and license file from SAP has been received.
The license gets installed through Visual Admin without any problems ("License installed sucessfully"), but when you view it afterward the value validity is set to "invalid". I have not found any log entry indicating why the license is invalid.
All other fields are filled correctly and both SID and hardware key match.
Just before the system restarts automatically it logs the following
com.sap.engine.core.licensing.impl0.LicensingManagerImpl.checkLicense(String)#######Thread[Thread-34,5,main]##0#0#Error#1#/System/Server#Java###The installed license for software product "" is NOT valid. The concerned component may only run with restricted functionality. In case of "J2EE-Engine" the system will shut down.#1#J2EE-Engine_ADA#
From note 1374965 I see that there are some fixes for licensing in SP05 (though none directly relevant), but would prefer not to upgrade unnecessary.
Anyone experiencing the same or have any workarounds?
Regards
Dagfinn

Managed to resolve it myself, just before I gave up.
I turned on full logging for location com.sap.engine.core.licensing through visual admin-> log configurator
There I saw
com.sap.engine.core.licensing.impl0.LicensingManagerImpl##com.sap.engine.core.licensing.impl0.LicensingManagerImpl.likey package#Administrator#8##n/a##77dc1c6035b911dfc3fd001e4f9e516d#SAPEngine_Application_Thread[impl:3]_32##0#0#Path##Plain###The license key for system "EWZ", hardware key "01145643903", product "J2EE-Engine_ADA" is invalid: the hardware key doesn't match "O1145643903".#
As you can see the hardware key starts with the letter O, while when the license was requested it was typed as the number 0 (by someone other than me )

License file error during portal startup

I've installed a portal (6.1MP1) on RHEL4. A few days ago, I've upgraded the license file to put new licenses for the installed components (Portal, Search and Publisher).
This morning, I had to restart my portal, unfortunately it doesn't come running. I got the following error :
Task 'InitializeLicense' Failed on Startup
Task #10 (InitializeLicense) Step #4
error: Missing, invalid, or expired license for AquaLogic Interaction-6.1-Portal.
platform: RedHat Linux (Java)
failure: FATAL: Missing, invalid, or expired license for AquaLogic Interaction-6.1-Portal.
recommendation: RECOMMENDATION: Please make sure the license.bea file in
the BEA home directory contains valid license entries for this
product/release/component.
exception: XPException
Portal: license error, Invalid host IP
It's a kind frustrating because I didn't have changed the IP adress since the last portal restart.
For information, my OS (RHEL4) run under a VMWare ESX Server
Any idea to resolve this ?
Thx

I had this issue and logged into the BEA license site and did a new retreival to replace my file. If you edit the text it will fail again though. based on your message you had my other issue where the ip of my good license was actually wrong and I had to change it via the online license management. then retreive again later.
