Activate license with FLM (via internet)

You activate the license by registering it directly with Four Js via the internet.

Internet is required

Before you begin: Internet access is required to activate the license; a temporary installation does not require internet.

The license must be installed but not yet activated.

  1. Start the command line interface.
    Open a command prompt.
    • On Linux®/UNIX®/macOS™, open a command prompt. "sudo" may be required.
    • On Windows®, right-click on the License Manager Workplace Window from the Start menu and select Run as administrator.
  2. Type flmprg -a info to get license details.
    If a message is displayed that the license is temporary, the license needs to be activated.
  3. Activate the license (auto):
    1. Type flmprg -k lnum auto
      Where lnum is the license number to enter.
    2. At the prompt: 
      Do you need to configure an HTTP proxy ? (y/n)
      Enter y if your access to the internet is through a proxy, and provide the required information for HTTP proxy and Port when prompted. Otherwise, enter n.
    The installation key is retrieved automatically from the Four Js Activation server. License installation is now completed.
