Invalid license key error when specifying key and SIGN2

[vinoth_kumar]

Hi,

We used to generate license file with below syntax.

VENDOR FINLE
INCREMENT Ace_lite FINLE 2.7 30-dec-2019 4 A788EBFC8476 DUP_GROUP=UHD \
NOTICE="DEMO Internal" SIGN="00B1 4EB4 F5D6 3CAB FE3D 04F9 \
2A0E 5801 49FA 4D14 F403 6DC0 A21B 3753 20D4 2A82 075E 8653 \
69AF D5CF B398" SIGN2=92008A4A525C

This was working fine in earlier versions. But once we migrated to FlexLM 11.15, this is not working anymore. We get the below error.

15:02:08 (FINLE) Invalid license key (inconsistent authentication code)

15:02:08 (FINLE)        ==>INCREMENT Ace_lite FINLE 2.7 30-dec-2019 4 A788EBFC8476 DUP_GROUP=UHD \

        NOTICE="DEMO Internal" SIGN="00B1 4EB4 F5D6 3CAB FE3D 04F9 \

        2A0E 5801 49FA 4D14 F403 6DC0 A21B 3753 20D4 2A82 075E 8653 \

        69AF D5CF B398" SIGN2=92008A4A525C

To fix this issue, we had to remove the key and SIGN2 as shown below

VENDOR FINLE
INCREMENT Ace_lite FINLE 2.7 30-dec-2019 4 A788EBFC8476 DUP_GROUP=UHD \
NOTICE="DEMO Internal" SIGN="00B1 4EB4 F5D6 3CAB FE3D 04F9 \
2A0E 5801 49FA 4D14 F403 6DC0 A21B 3753 20D4 2A82 075E 8653 \
69AF D5CF B398" SIGN2=92008A4A525C

Once we remove the key and SIGN2 and regenerate the license file, it works fine. Can you please let us know what is wrong with the license file we generated. Is the SIGN2 and Key obsolete?

Hi Vinod, Would you try by removing the occurances of "_trl" in the makefile (even from the library file names) and perform your test again? -Abhay

Hi Abhay, Sure, I'll try it and get back to you in 2 days. I'm going to try in Linux first. I see the "_trl" in many places in makefile. I'll remove them all and try to build. Thanks for your reply.

Hi Abhay, Thanks for your help. Issue got resolved after we removed the "_trl" in makefile. You can close this issue.
