Flexlm service not starting with new install OTBE 2.0

Post by jeremy13400 »

Hello guys,

I've reinstalled OTBE 2.0 from scratch (i had OTBE 1.3 before on the same server) using the image files found on Business Partner. Everything seems to work fine during the installation, ive installed all the required CD's, done the wizard with new licenses and everything is successful until the OTBE tries to start his "core services" (right after the wizard). At this point, all the services are started except the flexlm one.
Im using internal license server & internal DNS server (im reinstalling it in my lab and not at my customer office).
When i restore my oxe backup and then restore my new licenses via swinst, everything seems to be OK (no 30 days limit or PANIC FLAG), the 8770 VM is working fine as well but i known that this service is important thus im afraid it will cause some trouble in the future...

Did anyone experience something similar before?
Any help would be appreciated!

It appears to be a problem with my licenses (wrong ALUID), ive corrected the file *.ice manually and now flexlm service is working properly but some services are still unable to start up (solution + apache among others)...
Maybe i need to completely generate new licenses with the right ALUID??
I noticed that i cannot perform synchronization of OTBE node in OV8770 as well, it might be linked with my services not working.

If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards

Yes, only value you can change is hostname of your server, others not.
Need to request a new license.

Hello Cheo,

I'd be happy to help you if I can, but it'd be preferable if you post your question here so everyone can help you, im not an OTBE expert by any means and the community may be helpful as well.

Thank you,

For your migration you were on OTBE 1.3 for migration 2.0 or migration OTMS virtualized ?

Thanks.
