[#1]

Summary

Licensing with a node locked license fails

Symptoms

When attempting to license the 64 bit version of InstallAnywhere 2011 or later on a 64 bit Linux machine, after specifying the correct license file the Licensing Wizard displays the following error:

and the following error is written to the debug log file (console.txt) of the IDE for InstallAnywhere 2011 or later:

Trying to checkout IAEE version=12.0
Library for Native Hostid Couldn't Be Loaded (-521,7024)
Trying to checkout IAEB version=12.0
Library for Native Hostid Couldn't Be Loaded (-521,7024) 

This error causes the InstallAnywhere licensing process to fail.

Cause

The issue is caused by how the native library necessary for node locked licensing was compiled and differences among various Linux operating systems.

Resolution

In order to resolve the issue, please do the following:

1. Close the InstallAnywhere IDE.

2. Rename the file or files to replace listed in the table below for the appropriate platform to either:

<IA_HOME>/resource/fnp/libraries/ORIG_liblmgr11.so

or:

<IA_HOME>/resource/fnp/libraries/ORIG_lmhostid

3. Download the attached zip file that is appropriate for the machine:

Platform	Download File Name	File(s) to Replace
RHEL 4 x86_64	Public_RHEL4x64Library.zip	liblmgr11.so
RHEL 5 x86_64	Public_RHEL5x64Library.zip	liblmgr11.so
PPC 64 Linux	Public_LinuxPPC64Library.zip	liblmgr11.so
RHEL 4.8 x86_64	Public_ RHEL4.8x64Library.zip	liblmgr11.so, lmhostid
