Star CCM+ License Problem
 

Hello,

I'm having problems running a new presentation on CCM+, I have a license.dat file and it looks like it's not finding it.
I'm using lmtools (as someone in this forum said) and also tried to initialize the lm_license_file environment variable with the license file address. No way..

this is the error it gives me:

Licensing problem: Unable to list licensed features
FLEXnet error: (-1,359)

can anybody help me?

The license server
 

Is the license server, on your computer? or you connect to a main server?

there is no main server, the license file is on my computer

did you include all those LM variables in your environment variables or path according to your OS..

Hey,

I am fairly new to CFD, but I have been in contact with people at Cd-Adapco throughout the summer and the fall semester. I have heard that the FLEX licensing manager is not that great to work with. I have had very similar errors in the beginning, and thought that it was attributed to me moving my computer's location, but then after sending a couple of emails to Cd-Adapco they replied with a procedure that I now perform before I start any CFD sessions. I even have a short cut to the lmtools icon on my desktop.

I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
Here is how you get there:
My Computer -> Local Disk(C: ) -> Program Files -> CD-adapco -> FLEXlm -> 11_7_0_0 -> bin -> lmtools

1. Click on 'Start/Stop/Reread' Tab
2. Click Check Box 'Force Server Shutdown'
3. Click Button 'Stop Server'
4. Click 'Start Server'

hello,

I'm also on Windows 7 64 bits and have a problem for starting a CFD session with Star-CCM v 5.06.
the error message I have is " Server Process Ended unexpectedly (return code 1)" and it says in the output window
"Could not start STAR-CCM+ (CreateProcess error 2):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\CD-adapco\STAR-CCM+5.06.007\win32\intel11.1\star-ccm+.exe" -s2

I'm very new on Star-CCM, so any help will be welcome!

If you're having license issues, easiest thing is to call CD-Adapco's support line

could not connect scene graph socket
 

Hello all,

I have a problem with StarCCM+ 10.04.011 license file. Any support will be much appreciated!

I'm trying to activate CCM+ with local license file, I define the environment variable and it looks CCM+ recognize the license.dat.. However I'm getting "could not connect scene graph socket to XXX-PC:47827 from 127.0.0.1" just after seeing the simulation file in left panel and then CCM+ stopping the operation :(

ANy idea how to fix this issue?
