SP16 Java Netweaver Sneak Preview license renewal question

I've been off my project for 2 monthes, and meanwhile the license expired. The jcontrol service will not start anymore.
In the forum I am finding contradictory postings. Some are saying that I have to reinstall everything, others are saying I can get a new license.
What is the truth?
How can I get a new license?
By the way, I discovered that setting the date 2 monthes back solves the problem. Is it that simple to bypass the license check? Or will I run into other problems?

Hello,
I guess the simplest way for you to do is to set the date back to when your liscence has not expired, get a new liscence and then change the date back. It is pretty much the safest way to get things done in case WAS has some kind of date check with other web server.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Anyi

    Hi,
    Try the installation after starting all the services of the DB. For example if you have used Oracle as the underlying DB, make sure that the important Oracle Services like OracleOraHome92Agent, OracleOraHome92TNSListener and OracleServiceJ2E are in Started status.
    If some other DB, start its services. To start the services go to start - Settings - control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services. 
    Regards,
    Anup.

  • Fail to connect GUI to NetWeaver Sneak Preview

    Hello,
    I have just downloaded SAP NetWeaver Sneak Preview (ABAP).
    Installation was completed without any problems.
    GUI installation afterwards also did not show any problems. (Local Installation).
    However as I tried to logon with the GUI there was the following error message:
    "partner not reached (host 127.0.0.1., service sapdp01)
    Error No 10061
    Error Text WSAECONNREFUSED: Connection Refused
    What could be the reason for this? By the way, how do I
    1. Start the Application Server? Maybe it was not running, but there are no icons either.
    2. How do I uninstall all components, e.g. there was a new windows user defined during installation etc.
    Thank you very much for your help!

    First of all, thank you very much for your helpful advice. I will immediately try to do set up the loopback adapter.
    One more question: Is it necessary to start the server / ABAP Engine before logging in with SAP GUI?
    Unfortunately I do not see any entries in the Start Menu to start or stop the server.
    Thank you again!

  • NetWeaver Sneak Preview 2004s ABAP - Can't logon with German

    Hi SDN Members,
    yesterday I've installed my copy of NetWeaver Sneak Preview 2004s ABAP. The installation runns smoothly. Licence installation did not worked through transaction SLICENSE. So I logged on as User nspadm and did it on command line. But now to my problem: I can't logon with language "DE". I get the error "Select one of the installed languages". I've checked Transaction SMLT and German looks like English.
    Regards
    Gregor

    hello Gregor,
    there is the 'zcsa/installed_languages' parameter in the profile (NSP_DVEBMGS00_<hostname>) set to 'E'. If you'd like to run your Sneak Preview in German language you have to remove the parameter from the profile and then restart the system.

  • EP 6.0 SP15 Sneak Preview License questions

    I have installed the Full Java Edition SAP NetWeaver 04 SP15 yesterday.
    The documentation tells me "The license is valid for 180 days and cannot be extended." (license.htm ).
    http://myserver:50000/sap/monitoring/SystemInfo tells me:
    <b>Licenses </b>
    Installation Number | *** not yet assigned *** 
    System Number       |   J2E 
    <u>Software Product    |   Days Until Expiry </u>
    J2EE-Engine_ADA     |   89
    Visual Administrator - Server -> Services -> Licensing Adapter also tells me that the system expires 14/May/2006.
    That means i have a 90 day temporary license.
    What is the "right" licensing period i should expect?
    Is there any licensing extension possibility i missed?
    Hayo

    I am doing a full Local installation of the NW04 SP11 Java Sneak Preview.
    I have installed J2SDK 1.4.2.09 & the loopback adaptor on MS windows 2000 SP3.
