Getting error while starting license server "The code execution cannot proceed because msvcp120.dll was not found"

Jump to solution

Hi Team,

One of our customer is getting error as  “The code execution cannot proceed because msvcp120.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program might fix this problem.” while starting the flex license server by using command “lmadmin -import gssl.lic -force”  where gssl.lic is license file name.

c++ installed on their machine:  C++ 2015-2022 - Product Version  14.34.31938.0 .

 

Can you please let me know what can cause this issue?

Thanks

@ashish01 if this was not installed when installing lmadmin then install manually "Visual Studio 2013 redistributable" then this will fix this issue.

Best Regards,

Hi @mrathinam ,

Thanks for the reply. Can you also tell me about "vcredist_x64.exe" in lmadmin-x64_n6-11.18.3.1 package. What is this utility and what is the purpose of it?

 

Thanks

Hi @ashish01   lmadmin is dynamically dependent on a few Microsoft-provided DLLs that get installed with the mentioned redistributable kit "VCredist_x64.exe". 

So basically "VCredist_x64.exe" is a self-extracting executable file supplied by Microsoft that installs dynamic link library (. DLL) files needed by 64-bit applications created by Microsoft Visual C++, now part of Visual Studio" hope this answers your query.
