IC50 SKILL Development Error

Hi all,

After running icfb I got the following message when I tryed to execute SKILL Development from CIW tools menu:

"Ërror" sorry - no license to run SKILL Development

I checked license file. The following feature exists:

FEATURE skillDev cdslmd 5.600 etc

Another tools are working well.

What is the reason ?

regards, vodes

hi,
maybe the license is already checked out, because another process is using this feature on another machine. look under ciw --> options --> licenses.
give me a feedback, whether you fix the problem or not. we had similar problems with another feature.

Hi,

I checked the licenses under CIW option/License Check Out.
There were no problems.
Also nobody used this feature in parallel.

rgrds, vodes

hello,

can you specify the operating system and the environment variables you set.
Have you installed all available tools of the instllation cd's?

Hello Vodes,

it seems all ok with the environment variables. i really dont know where the problem is but you can try this:

type some very simple skill commands in the command line of ciw.
e.g.
a=1
if a==1 then printf("good") else printf("bad")

if it work, you can execute skill code but you certainly need the tools of the skill development system like debugger.
if you have the possiblity to run ic5 from a solaris 2.7 machine, try this. we had different behavior between these two versions of solaris.

greetings,
hqqh

I have the same error as vodes': no license to run Skill Development. But I am using IC5.0 on Linux 7.3. Anybody can help me solve this problem? I have to use this function.

Are you've check the license encrypted key for skillDev is right?
Try to type 'lmdiag -c /path_of_license_file' to check license can be check out or not.

Re: IC50 SKILL Development Error, same to me

I also encount the same question,who can help us?

Please check the "skillDev" version.
