License Manager Error Messages

NO DAEMON line for name

Cause: Vendor daemon logs this error if it cannot find its own DAEMON name in the license file.

Action: Edit license file.

NO DAEMON lines, exiting

Cause: License daemon logs this message if there are no DAEMON lines in the license file; with no vendor daemons to start, there is nothing to do.

Action: Edit license file.

No features to serve!

Cause: Vendor daemon found no features to serve. This could be caused by bad data in the license file.

Action: Inspect the license file for bad data.

No license data for feature, feature unsupported

Cause: No feature line for feature in the license file.

Unable to re-open lock file

Cause: Vendor daemon has a problem with its lock file, usually because of an attempt to run more than one copy of the daemon on a single node.

Action: Locate the other daemon that is running via a ps command, and kill it with kill –9.

Unknown host: hostname

Cause: hostname specified on a SERVER line in the license file does not exist in your host’s database.

Action: Check with your system administrator for the correct hostname. FLEXlm uses standard network services to find the host: Domain Name Server (DNS), Network Information Services (NIS or YP) or in /etc/hosts.

UNSUPPORTED FEATURE request: feature by user

Cause: user has requested a feature that this vendor daemon does not support. This can happen for a number of reasons: the license file is bad, the feature has expired, or the daemon is accessing the wrong license file.
