Hi Jenifer,

Probably the only problem is, that the Windows Server 2016 Standard is not listed as recommended operating system for concurrent licensing in the documentation:

https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fresources.flexera.com%2Finstructions%2Fproductlicensing%2Fen%2Finstallshieldfaqs.htm%23fnlssysreq&data=02%7C01%7Csupport%40flexera.com%7C75172487f7a34360d9cb08d6fba685b5%7C91034d230b634943b138367d4dfac252%7C1%7C0%7C636973089960318...

I have opened in parallel the support case (Case #01873270) and got an answer already.
The answer is:
"Yes, you can still go ahead and install the FlexNetLicensingServer11_16 on Windows Server 2016 Standard and checkout licenses of InstallShield 2018 from the same".
Based on this answer I can safely install the FlexNetLicensingServer on Windows Server 2016 Standard and expect, that it will work correctly.

Best Regards,
Pawel

Hi @stasiakp ,

What is the issue you face when trying to connect with/set up concurrent server in Windows Server 2016?

 

Can you please post any error string/code specifically if any?

 

Thanks,

Jenifer

Hi:

About Installshield

I want to call our own data analysis tools for data reporting at the beginning and end of installation.
Some of the interfaces of data analysis tools are in dll, and some of them are in exe. Can this requirement be achieved? How should it be implemented? Is there any reference document or demo?  Thanks
