FlexNet Licensing error:-96,7

Solution

The specified server computer (the line “hostname” in the error message above) is unknown, switched off or not reachable in the network.

  • Make sure, that you don’t have a typo for the server name in the license file. The server name in your license file may be edited by the customer without invalidating the license file.
  • Make sure, that the server computer is online and “visible” in the network for your computer. Ask your system administrator to check this.
  • Try using the server’s ip address instead of the server name in the license file.
  • Try using a fully qualified domain name, e.g. srv310010.mytherapeutix.com instead of only srv310010.
