License Key Error: Invalid Key

Hi,
I have an installation of BOE XI R2 which includes:
1-BusinessObjects Web Intelligence Starter Kit (8 user licenses)
2-BusinessObjects Enterprise Professional (for Query, Reporting, and Analysis) 12 users
So in total I have 20 users.
When I add BusinessObjects Web Intelligence BOE Professional Bundle 1 user ,
I get the following error:
There was an error while writing data back to the server: License Key Error: Invalid Key XXXXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXXX-XXXX.
Regards
Sokol

Hi Veera,
Following is the temporary license key for SAP Dashboards 4.1
<key code>
During the installation of SAP Dashboards, it will ask for product key. You need to insert the above product key in it.
Let me know if this works.
Regards,
Noopur

Error: invalid key kength

Getting some strange occurrences:
-unexpected quits more unexpected than usual
-my keychain disappearing and not being able to make a new one
-my drop box (shared folder) disappearing
-hard crashes with FireFox and my flight sim
The computer still works (typing from that boot partition now) but I need the drop box back so we can move some files for CD archiving from the wife's old iMac to her new eMac that arrives tomorrow.
I booted from the OSX Jag install CD yesterday and ran Disk Utility on the OSX boot partition. Its repair function reported an "invalid key length error." Running Repair Disk several times would report it fixed and then not fixed.
Searching the forums here, I know what I need to do to correct it. Nearly all information says that even DW cannot correct this. About half the responses to reports of this error say that it's a sign the the drive is dying, the other half say that wiping the partition and reinstalling should take care of it.
Out of an abundance of caution, I ordered a new 120GB drive today (on sale at Staples.com for only US$60!). However, I want to try the reformatting first. Any thoughts on whether the drive is going belly-up??
The boot partition is on a 60GB drive that is somewhere between 3 and 4 years old. The larger slave drive is less than two,
Here's my plan:
1) remove the CD-RW and ZIP, and make the 80GB slave drive "master" on the ATA1 bus.
2) Use Carbon Copy Cloner to move the boot partition (on ATA0) to a reserved 7.99GB partition on the 80GB drive (boy! Am I glad I set that up when I installed the drive!)
3) Wipe the orig OSX boot partition and zero it out with DU.
4) boot from the cloned partition
5) Again use CCC to move OSX back to the orig partition.
DU reported no problems with the other three partitions. I also have the option to simply make a new install of OSX on the 80GB's first partition.
Anyone see any potential problems with my plan? Hand-holding and sympathy cards are appreciated!

Thanks Grant,
I thought that the error is due to a directory problem. But you're right--CCC probably can't read a damaged directory properly.
When I searched the forums, most posts were of the line of "DW can't fix this." Just about every report said that the problem did not go away for good until the partition was zeroed out and the system reinstalled.
Anyway, the current version of DW is not for Jag, apparently, None of the downloads show anything but the latest version.
I bought TTP3 before they came out with the OSX v4 and was sent a free upgrade CD. It boots into Panther--no go. They then sent a "Beige" version that had 10.2.6, but I managed to unbless the boot partition with it, requiring an A&I last November. The nice TTP tech I contacted basically said the TTP4 should not be used on a Beige G3 without an ATA accelerator card. By then, a Jag version of DW was not available. So I'm stuck without a heavy duty OSX utility at the moment.
I think it may be best to wait until Thursday when the new drive gets here and set it up as the new boot drive, leaving the 2-year old 80GB as the slave.
At least I'm running OK right now. I know not to try FireFox or my flight sim until lI get things patched up. The new eMac arrives tomorrow and I was going to move a bunch of Susan's files to my computer while setting up the new toy. My wife may have to wait.

Powerbook won't start - Disk Utility error "Invalid Key Length" - help plz!

Hello
I am having problem with my Titanium powerbook. Since it was refurbished I have only been using it for internet browsing and email and I don't know why it suddenly started freezing. After a couple of freezes it stopped starting up. I don't know why, as I wasn't doing anything unusual. I have run a few checks and don't know how to proceed. Please help.
This is what I have done so far:
1. Tried to start up in Safemode. Made the startup sound but then went dead.
2. I tried Single User Mode and did fsck -fy and the results were:
** /dev/rdisk0s10
** Root file system
** Checking HFS Plus volume
** Checking Extents Overflow file.
** Checking catalogue file
Invalid key length
(4, 135)
** volume check failed
localhost:/ root# Firewire (OHCI) Apple ID 18 built-in: no valid self IDs for more than 2 minutes after bus reset.
3. No problems were detected by the Hardware Test disk.
But the powerbook still won't start up properly. I can't get past the blue screen with the 'thinking' (rotating) circle icon (pinwheel?).
4. When I try to access the computer using a firewire cable the hard disk doesn't appear on the host computer.
5. I tried Disk repair Utility from startup using a disk but got the same result as with fsck -fy.
Any ideas?

Hi, Can't. Your hard drive's directory is damaged in a way that exceeds the limited repair capabilities of Disk Utility or fsck. DiskWarrior can fix "invalid key length" errors, as this short FAQ explains. If you have DiskWarrior, use it to make the repair. If you don't, you can either buy DW, or reformat the hard drive with Disk Utility and start over. Note that reformatting the drive will erase everything on it, so if there's any important, un-backed-up data on it that you can't afford to lose, buying DW will be the better option for you.

Error-Invalid key length?

My G5 osx 10.4.3 keeps crashing, Cd's don't showup.
I've run various utilities on it, nothing fixes it.
When running disk utility it gives message-
Invalid key length and says volume can't be repaired.
Also tried Techtool deluxe and disk warrior.
Any ideas?
Ty

I don't see much hope knowing you tried the usual utilities. I trust you tried all the repair procedure while booted from a CD...
If you haven't done so already, backup as much as you can on an external HD (I would even try a clone)
Erase and zero your HD. Reinstall Tiger and retrieve as much as you can from the external HD.
By the way, if you don't yet have an external HD, now is the time to get one that is at least as large as your internal HD. Compared to the time lost and the anguish experienced they are cheap...
Backup regularly...

Someone can help me about the error in subject? I put the key suplied in the notebook, and always I have a error to activate.

Hi,
you did not mention if you recovered your machine with an original recovery media or just installed a original Windows, so I agree with snipe: a recovery does not need a key, because its already activated.
Would appreciate some feedback from you.
Cheers

"Invalid key" error --- License Key for system NSP

Hello SDN Team,
I have successfully installed the NW04 ABAP Sneak Preview. Now I'm trying to get a license for it at http://www.sap.com/solutions/netweaver/minisap.epx. I enter all the data, check the License Agreement, hardware key from Transaction SLICENSE, choose the System NSP and send the form.
I got an email with the following information:
Your Hardware key      : X17xxxxxxxx
Your License Key       : BCBHPS8UVTRYQT8TWURZxxxx
License Expiration date: 20060101
SID                    : NSP
Installation-Nr.       : DEMOSYSTEM
I entered the License Key in the Transaction SLICENSE but I got an error "Invalid key".
How can i get the correct key?
Regards,
James

Hi SAP,
I have the same or a similar problem.
Trying to install the license, I enter the mailed data exactly and properly, however, receive the following error message:
saplicense: License not installed
Wrong license data specified
Check the specified license data for:
- typing errors
- upper / lower characters
- same values as noted on license fax
The same result when I enter the given data via a file...
It looks as an error in the generated LKEY field. Really, something has been changed in the procedure and software during the last 3 months (for example, the new entry field is required now in the request form - SND User id).
Who is responsible and who could help?
Thanks in advance & best regards,
Vladimir

Usermod - Invalid Key error

I am trying to install Oracle 10gR2 on my Solaris zone. It says that I need the oracle user to have a projid=100 (group.dba).
I created group.dba in /etc/project using the projadd command. Here is the entry:
group.dba:100:Oracle Default:::
When I run id -p as oracle, I get:
uid=1002(oracle) gid=100(oinstall) projid=3(default)
I tried to do a usermod -K "project=group.dba" oracle. I got the following error:
UX: usermod: ERROR: Invalid key.
I've looked at several documentation pages on assigning projects and using key=value. I also checked the man pages for usermod and user_attr. First, none of them tell you to use quotations, although many google searches and samples show that you do.
Please help me see what I am failing to see.
Best!

I just added the record to the file /etc/user_attr and when I su - oracle; id-p all was OK

"Your license key is invalid or has expired" error (Purchased License)

Hello -
We have just installed CR Server XI R2 and have purchased a valid license. The installation accepted the license key during the install and also allowed me to register this license key at the end of the install and sent me my registration number. After finish the install and following the installation guides - all of the services come up in Central Configuration Manager - but when clicking the Enable/Disable Servers icon and trying to enable 1 or all of the servers there (final step in the install guide) I get the following:
Your license key is invalid or has expired. If you received a temporary license key by purchasin another BusinessObjects product, you must register BusinessObjectsEnterprise to receive your permanent license key.
Again, this is not a temp license, but a full Crystal Reports Server XI R2 5 Cal keycode, purchased through CDW.
When we were awaiting the full license to come, we attempted to install and run the trial version of CR Server XI R2 and continually received this same error with that install. I have removed the package completely and re-installed multiple times but each time get this same error at the final step.
Any help would be great, we've tried reaching out to the Customer Email Support for BO and phone number since Monday and finally yesterday we were told we had to come to this forum to get assistance.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Jeremy,
I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

We have bought licensed Crystal Reports Server 11 near by 2006.We are trying to install the crystal server but while installing ,we have encountered with an error message that:-
"The product key code you have entered is incorrect"
We are facing the same issue in 2006,I am attaching with this email the conversations that was held in 2006 to get the correct key code.
Please help us to resolve the issue as early as possible.
My contact number:
If you need any further information do let me know

Ajit,
By design, the product is not able to be installed under the superuser account.
1. Create a new user and specify a home directory for the user without a quota set.
2. Copy or move the installation files to a directory that the new user can read. I suggest you move the installation files directly into the new user's home directory.
3. Logon as the new user (or su - newuser)
4. run the installation shell script using that new user's account.
NOTE: Ensure the system meets the requirements from the supported platforms documents.

"Invalid Key" and EKAG20NT.EXE error

After trying to update my computer with an SSD, then returning to the original HDD's, I now get an error that says I have an invalid key. If I click through, it gives me an "Incorrect EKAG20NT.EXE version (internal error, API V2.00)". The program appears to load normally, and seems to function normally while editing, but I don't want to get in the middle of this rather large project and get stranded.
It does not happen with AE, PS, Audition, or any other programs in the Production Suite. I have a Dell Precision T5600 twin Xeon Workstation. It does use a PERC 310 raid controller with two main 350GB enterprise drives. All video file data is kept off the machine on external eSATA drives.
Any idea why this happened, and how I can fix it?
Thank you-
Addendum: It also happens if I export a file for encoding to Media Encoder.

Have you ever installed the x264Pro plug-in? If so, then that's probably the source of your issue. Changing the hardware configuration will invalidate the current license key. Contact 3AM Digital Studios to get it sorted.

Hi,
please contact 3am directly at [email protected] so that we can help you (if you didn't already a month ago).
Yes, "Invalid Key" is a license problem when some hardware changes, not a bug or virus. I just became aware of this thread today.

Hi All,

name".
Kindly suggest me the best solution to resolve this issue.
Waiting for your valuable suggestions.

SAP license key error: no valid license found: cannot log into SAP GUI

I deleted temp license from slicense on SM box, since I had already installed new digital license from SAP. Well, later I tried to log in again and was locked out. After some research, I found "sap license check failed" in the log files, java will not come up, and the hardware key has changed on me, so the valid license that was active before is not showing up now.
I applied for a new license with new hardware key and attempted to install from cmd prompt, using saplicense -install ifile=c:license.txt, but it gets an error. I put a trace on it and appears it cannot read license file key. I also tried to install another temp license, but that failed since no other previous valid license was found. At this point, I'm thinking I need to manually insert the license key into the database, but not sure what table or exactly how. SAP has not provided a solution yet.
I believe the hardware key changed due to renaming the server (we took out a hyphen in name) and had also reinstalled afterwards.
Has anyone else run into this issue?

Yes, I wish it were that simple, but I cannot even bring up the logon screen. SAP GUI returns a message, resource temporarily unavailable. I looked in SAP MMC syslog and found several entries, "SAP-Basis System: No license found for hardware ID DLIC_HWIDKE"
I tried to install temp license from cmd prompt, but it says refuses and says no old or expired license found. I also tried to install the new license I applied for from SAP with new hardware key using saplicense -install ifile=license.txt and that failed as well.
For NW2004s, is it even possible to install a digital license using cmd prompt?
Ben
