Netweaver Developer Subscription digital license not recognized

Former Member

Hello,

I obtained from SMP and installed a permanent license for my Netweaver SR3 system. It shows up in the "New Licenses" table of the SLICENSE screen as "valid" and with an expiration date of next September. Yet the system is not recognizing it and will not fully start up. Only the SAP* user can log on. I have tried deleting it and requesting another one from SMP but it made no difference. The command line utility "saplicense" also can not find the new license.The license check was working fine earlier under the temporary license which showed up in SLICENSE under "Old Licenses". Do I need to do something different to tell the system to look for a new digital license instead? Is there a way to get a trace showing exactly why the license check is failing? Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks

-Chris

Hi Slava,

I had not seen that post. I'll take your advice and investigate MaxDB license possiblity next.

Thanks for having taken the time to look into this for me.

Chris,

I have not seen this before. Maybe MaxDB license related defect

Looks at the end of this:

If no one suggest anything better, open OSS message with SAP.

Sorry I cannot be of any more help at the moment.

The Sware Prod column in New Licenses contains "Netweaver_ADA". Is this correct for my subscription? The Hardware Key, Inst No, and System No. columns match the details above under Current Settings. I am seeing message in the ST11 error log for dev_w0 "ERROR ==> sap license, no valid license found [likeyapi_w.c 2260]. Are there any other logs I should check?

Thanks

Your DB is MAXDB, correct?

Hi Slava,

Yes, thank you. I did click on "New Licenses" and my license shows up there with a green light, a status of "valid", and an expiration of next september. But somehow the system still does not see it during start up and for the license check when I try to log on.

What types of licenses did you apply?

What is in your "Sware Prod" field in SLICENSE for New Licenses?

Maybe it is a wrong type.

Any errors in the logs?

Chris,

SLICENSE can be confusing.

Make sure you click on "New Licenses" button and you have there "Installed Licenses" with green lights.

By default SAP will show you "Old Licenses" - not the place to install new licenses.

Hope it helps.
