Weblogic License Exception

Anyone have any input on this. I received paid licenses for WL 5.1, installed them
in the appropriate WebLogicLicense.xml file (which is in the classpath), and am now
getting the following error:
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ License Exception $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Loaded License: /weblogic/license/WebLogicLicense.xml
However Unable to start because :
The license for WebLogic does not allow use by ip address 127.0.0.1
etc.....
WL is installed on a Linux box with an ip of 10.xxx.xxx.xxx, so it doesn't really
make sense?
Thanks in advance.

Hi.
when you say you have installed weblogic on the same machine several times and it worked, do you mean you have installed wls
6.1 sp1? Or do you mean you have installed other versions? If you have installed this version before then you might try
reinstalling with a fresh download of the install binary.
If you are still having problems then you might want to open a case with support.
Regards,
Michael

$$$$ License Exception when connecting to SQL Server for Weblogic 7.0

Hi,
I downloaded Weblogic 7.0, and installed and uninstalled a few times,

I got the error:

Thanks a lot!!

Hi,
As mentioned in the following configuration article, for earlier versions of SQL Server where MARS was not an option, the way to configure is to have server-side cursors configured.
(check out the tabulated column next to MARS_Connection for details)
http://www.easysoft.com/products/data_access/odbc-sql-server-driver/manual/configuration.html
To use server-side queries in the connection URL, pls go through this link
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/bc4j/bc_psqlserverwalkthrough.html
But please note that server-side cursors does have a performance overhead.
Let me know if you need more information.

I found a similar problem in the list, but it indicated a download of the latest

You need to include the directory that contains the license.bea in your

or use -D to specify it on commandline

License Exception Problem Encountered With CDs from Dev2Dev Conference

We just attended a great BEA Dev2Dev conference at which we were each provided
a complimentary BEA WebLogic Platform 8.1 CD with the one-year development license.
After the conference, we were all excited to install the CD and apply some of
the techniques we'd just been shown at the conference. The problem is that we
cannot get the installation to work correctly, as described. We continue to get
"LICENSE EXCEPTION" when we attempt to launch anything.
-- The instruction say the CD would provide the requisite "license.bea" (one-year)
file in our
BEA_HOME directory (c:\bea). However, no such file exists. In fact, that file
doesn't exist anywhere on the system. We tried this on three different computers,
using two different CDs that were provided. One one of the computers, a previous
version of WL7.0 was installed. It was fully de-installed. The third computer
has never had a BEA product on it, so there should not have been any conflict.
-- We used only default settings. OS is WinXP with more than enough RAM and disk
space to handle BEAWL8.1.
-- We used the SmartInstall program that comes with the BEA CD that was handed
out at the conference.
Can you tell us what we need to do to make this product work? Our enthusiasm
from the conference still continues, but frustration is starting to set in.
Thanks,
Doug

Well, as it turns out, the literature is a bit wrong, but the CD is correct.
The literature says the installation program will place a copy of "license.bea"
in the BEA_HOME folder (typically c:\bea). This is not the case. What is the
case is that after you run the installation program from the CD, there is a link
at the very bottom-left corner of the HTML page for you to go out an grap the
license specifically for the installs based on the CDs from Dev2Dev offerings.

WLS 6: license Exception: Unable to start EJB Service, EJB 2.0 has not been enabled.

Hi there!
I've just installed WLS6 and tried to find out more about EJB 2.0.
But for some reason(License Exception) I could not run the EJB
2.0 Examples.
The other Examples work fine (I tried InitialContext and EJB1.1),
but one I try to
compile an EJB 2.0 Example and then copy it into the config...
directory I get a license

Could anyone give me a hint?

License Exception using security manager w/ WL 6.1 SP 3

I am running WL 6.1 SP 3 on Solaris 5.8 w/ jkd 1.3.1. I am trying to use a security
manager in a clustered environment. The startManagedWeblogic.sh starts the server
via:
java $JAVA_OPTIONS -classpath $CLASSPATH -Dweblogic.Domain=sceptre -Dweblogic.Name=$SERVER_NAME
-Dweblogic.management.server=$ADMIN_URL -Dbea.home=/disk01/abc/abc8/bea -Dweblogic.management.password=$WLS_PW
-Dweblogic.ProductionModeEnabled=$STARTMODE -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy==$WL_HOME/lib/weblogic.policy
weblogic.Server
The weblogic.policy file has been altered to set the codebase / file location
for my weblogic instance as indicated in the admin guide:
grant codeBase "file:/disk01/abc/abc8/bea/wlserver6.1/-" {
permission java.io.FilePermission "/disk01/abc/abc8/bea/wlserver6.1/-", "read,write,delete,execute";
However, when I start my server I receive the following:
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ License Exception $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Unable to start WebLogic Server !!
WebLogic: license has expired on Thu Nov 28 12:00:00 EST 2002!
I'm unclear why this error only occurs if I specify the -Djava.security.manager
option, but the error is incorrect. I suspect it may be due to my licence.bea
file containing both an active license and an expired evaluation license. Is
this a known issue, and how can I get around it?
If my policy file settings are in error please let me know. I assume they are
right since if I otherwise put in invalid settings I get various java.security.AccessControlException
(s).

I removed the invalid license, and now get a different error:

Having looked at ticket S-15389, I used java utils.myip java utils.netAddresses
-a to verify that the IP Address returned by the JVM is the same as the one in
the license file. Additionally, I checked the /etc/hosts file to verify the IP
address mapped to the server name was the same in the license file.

About weblogic license questions before weblogic10.3 version

Someone asked me about the license type'question earlier,and the following is a license.bea details.

Q1:I know most of them except license type's parameter value.what's meaning of "RTK" & "SDK" ?
Q2:what's meaning of signature ?
Q3:from weblogic10.3,there is no need to set a license.bea file in your BEA_HOME,and how customer be authorized to use ?

ADF 11g and Peoplesoft/Weblogic License

Hi,
My understanding is that ADF is included in every WebLogic license, does anybody know if this also applies to installations
of Oracle Peoplesoft that include WebLogic Server or would a separate ADF license be required to implement ADF components in
a Peoplesoft environment?
Many Thanks,
Sean

Query on Weblogic Licensing

Hi,
How does Oracle Weblogic licensing model work? Is there any documentation available on the Internet for the same? Thanks in advance!

Oracle no longer requires your IP address(es) in order to provide a license key. Oracle is now providing new generic license files that simplify the licensing process.

Cold Fusion 8 License Exception

We purchased ColdFusion 8 Standard Edition and are running
one Website on IIS. When I had people looking at some CF templates
with mockups, I got a License Exception disallowed IP addresses
error.
Please advise- the only fix I found listed in this CF form
category was to update the serial number in CF admin under "System
Information Link"- there is no such link in CF8 or I can't find it.
We installed this full Standard edition on our server and entered
our serial number - why is this happening?
Thanks

Search you lib dirs for a file named license.properties and
enter your
license key there and restart.
