Posted: Mon Jan 09, 2006 3:35 pm Post subject: unkown hostname by flexlm [solved] |
|
|
I'm having trouble with Flexlm finding my hostname, I wan't to run MSC.Marc.Mentat2005. But i think the problem is somewhere in my settings.
I don't know if i'm in the right Forum I hope some moderator won't mind moving me if needed.
I start Marc like so:
Code: | j@pd ~ $ mentat2005
Starting License Manager Daemon
Date: Mon Jan 9 16:22:59 2006
MSC Id: 004063dcf710 (ethernet)
Hostname: pd
Host Type: Linux Server List: Host: pd Id: 004063dcf710 (ethernet) Comm: 0 Port: 1700
License files: /home/j/Marc-Mentat2005/mentat2005/../flexlm/licenses/license.dat
User: j
Display: /dev/tty
A request to check out 1 licenses for MSC.Mentat was denied.
Server node is down or not responding
See the system adminstrator about starting the server, or
make sure the you're referring to the right host (see LM_LICENSE_FILE)
Feature: Mentat
Hostname: pd
License path: /home/j/Marc-Mentat2005/mentat2005/../flexlm/licenses -
/license.dat
FLEXlm error: -96,7
For further information, refer to the FLEXlm End User Manual,
available at "www.macrovision.com".
Verify that your license server is at FLEXlm version 9.2 or above.
Security check failed!
Call MSC.Software Support. |
The error 96,7 means something like licensefile not found.
Code: | j@pd ~ $ cat Marc-Mentat2005/flexlm/flexlm.log
16:22:52 (lmgrd) -----------------------------------------------
16:22:52 (lmgrd) Please Note:

16:22:52 (lmgrd) This log is intended for debug purposes only.
16:22:52 (lmgrd) There are many details in licensing policies

16:22:52 (lmgrd) here, so if you use this log file for any kind
16:22:52 (lmgrd) of usage reporting you will generally produce
16:22:52 (lmgrd) incorrect results.
16:22:52 (lmgrd)
16:22:52 (lmgrd) -----------------------------------------------
16:22:52 (lmgrd)
16:22:52 (lmgrd)
16:22:52 (lmgrd) Unknown host: pd |
from this log i take that it can't find my hostname.
Code: | j@pd ~ $ hostname
pd |
But as you can see here (and in my prompt) my hostname is pd.
I searched google on this, but i only run into windows related flexlm problems.
A snip out of my licensefile:
Code: | j@pd ~ $ head -n 2 /home/j/Marc-Mentat2005/flexlm/licenses/license.dat
SERVER pd ANY 1700
DAEMON MSC /home/j/Marc-Mentat2005/flexlm/linux/msc |
I have no experience with flexlm, i need some directions plz. _________________ | 1.6Ghz atom N270 | adopt an unanswerd post | a nice way to post a config file |

Can you do a and get a valid result; to check that DNS is working ok.
You may have to emerge net-dns/bind-tools |

Code: | pd j # host pd
bash: host: command not found |
I'm emerging net-dns/bind-tools-9.2.5 as we speak.
[edit]
emerge is done, i still get the same error. do i need to start something out the toolbox?
Code: | pd j # host pd
Host pd not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) |

in /etc/resolv.conf you have the correct default domain ?
i.e. does host pd.<domain> work but host pd not |

nope it does not: Code: | pd j # cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by dhcpcd for interface eth1
domain JJJ
nameserver 192.168.1.1
pd j # host pd.JJJ
Host pd.JJJ not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) |
i'm realy clueless about all this dns and hostname stuff, i figured that it was working when the hostname command printed out my hostname.
could my router be involved in dns not working properly? _________________ | 1.6Ghz atom N270 | adopt an unanswerd post | a nice way to post a config file | |

i see you have 192.168.1.1 set up as your nameserver, is that correct ? what type of server is it ? build-in dhcp and dns in your adsl box ?
You can try to hardcode your pd.jjj entry in /etc/hosts, should work as long as you don't change IPnumber |

it's a asus wl-500G router. (not a pc, but the box u get when u ask the computerstore for a router )
by hardcoding in to the hosts file u mean: Code: | pd j # cat /etc/hosts | grep pd
192.168.1.101 pd.JJJ |
the .JJJ part wasn't there before i started this thread.
the ip's never change, not the ip of pd nether the ip of the router.
and the nameserver? is this the dns-server? _________________ | 1.6Ghz atom N270 | adopt an unanswerd post | a nice way to post a config file | |
