Star CCM+ licensing issues

rk_333 · May 30, 2018, 17:17

Hi,
I have installed Star CCM+ on my PC using the license file granted to me and proceeded to open a New session, when I see the following error message:
"This version of the code requires license version 2018.02 or greater.
Licensing problem: Unable to find a path to any license file or license server. Please create the CDLMD_LICENSE_FILE environment variable and point it to the license server. FLEXnet error: (-1,359)"

I have tried the following, but no luck. (My license file says I have a Power license).

1. Tried to add Environment Variables
-Click New icon in System Variables.
-Write "CDLMD_LICENSE_FILE" in Variable name
-Write "1999@servername" in Variable value
2.Also in System Variables click New icon.
-Write "CDLMD_LICENSE_PATH" in Variable name.
-Copy path of my license file in Variable value.

Am I doing something wrong? Please help.

Thanks!

Check with CD-Adapco to check whether your license is Power or normal one
