Message that license will expire but has no exp date

Mindie

My client is getting a message that the license file will expire in 15 days.

I have made sure that they have their client license uploaded and not ours. I have uploaded the license file again just in case it was a quirk. I have tested the same license file on my local drive and I do not get the message. I have even uploaded other license files and still get the message.

Is there some secret place on SQL that another file can be causing this problem? It's always just been a simple click of the upload button before.

I'm out of ideas.

Remove license file from the clients computers NAV folder.

Mindie

Thank you. That did it. There was an old license file on the client machine.

Hi,
I am experiencing exactly the same think. This is what i did:
I went to the following place:C:\Program Files\Microsoft Business Solutions-Navision\Client, and delete the fin.flf file and then import the license again, but it is still giving me the same warning.

Can someone help me on this please. I am using a native database and the version is 4.0.
Thanks

Mindie

Kolaboy make sure that there are no other licnese files on that computer. Delete or rename all .flf files.

i have the same problem, on a native 4.0SP2 DB.
i've renamed ALL .flf files, except for fin.flf, in which i've imported the correct license, but the program still finds an old license from nowhere... i'm stuck with it...

native database -> remove the wrong fin.flf from Client Folders and Server Folder

SQL database -> remove the wrong fin.flf fron Client Folder. On SQL Server you must Upload the correct license

We have renamed the wrong fin.flf from the client folder and import the correct one. When we open the application the correct one shows, but when the application is closed and open again, the wrong one comes again.

We went to the server and renamed and eventually removed the whole license but still when the application is closed and then open again, we see the wrong license again
Any idea why this is happening?
Thanks

kolaboy

Thanks everyone. its resolved.

garak

and what was the solution?

kolaboy

I was looking at the wrong folder. I went to the actual server folder and removed the old license and placed the new one and it works. I did this in both the server and the client.

native database -> remove the wrong fin.flf from Client Folders and Server Folder

I did exactly as stated by garak above.
Thanks
