Problems After Installation
License Manager Error -97: License Checkout Failed
This error can occur when trying to start the license manager while an
existing vendor daemon
(mlm.
exe) is already running. To resolve this, open
the Task Manager and terminate any
mlm.
exe processes that are running. If
you cannot end the process in the Task Manager, reboot your computer. Once
you reboot, restart the license manager.
If the same error occurs after rebooting, it is also possible that the vendor
daemon is trying to run on an occupied port. To specify an open port for the
vendor daemon, edit the
DAEMON
line in the license .dat file, found in the
mat2abroot\R2006b\f lexlm folder, where matlabroot is the root MATLAB
folder
DAEMON MLM matJabroot\R2006b\flexlm\mlm.exe port=#####
where ##### is an open port. You can use any unused port number between 0
and 64000. By default, the license manager uses a port in the range 27000
to 27009.
