License Manager Error -84: USER_BASED License Has No
Specified Users
The license manager cannot find your options file. Some possible resolutions
are
• Verify that the installer created an options file during the
installation procedure. The full path of the options file is
matiabroot\R2006b\flexlm\MLM.opt, where matiabroot is your MATLAB
installation folder. See "Setting Up Network Named User Licensing" on
page 2-25 for more information.
• Verify that the DAEMON line in your License File includes the full
pathname of your options file. Check the processed License File,
matiabroot\R2006b\flexlm\license.dat. Ifthe
DAEMON
line wraps onto
a second line, make sure there is a line continuation character (\) at the
end of the first line.
• Verify that you are listed as a valid user ofthe product you are trying to use.
Ucense Manager Error -96: License Checkout Failed. Server
Node is Down or Not Responding
This error can occur if you are running DHCP (to obtain a dynamically
assigned IP address) on your license server. MATLAB cannot connect with
the license manager because it uses TCP/IP protocols for communication and
the IP address is changing.
To fix this problem, follow this procedure:
1 Obtain the current IP address for your server. If you are on UNIX or Linux,
use the if config command. On a PC running Windows, you can use the
ipconfig command at a DOS prompt.
2 Edit the hosts file on your system and change the IP address for
your server's entry to be the correct IP address. On UNIX or Linux
systems, edit the /etc/hosts file. On Windows systems, edit the
C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file.
