License environment variables

These environment variables are relevant for the licensing tools.

FGLLICENSE

The FGLLICENSE environment variable specifies the Four Js License Controller configuration file for BDL (fglWrt).

The default license configuration file is at $FGLDIR/etc/fgllicense. If the environment variable is not set, the default configuration file is used.

When the FGLLICENSE environment variable is set, it specifies the path to the configuration file. Multiple configuration files may be used. For examples, see Do I need multiple license controller configuration files?.

When defining multiple license configuration files, the filenames must be separated by the operating system specific path separator. The path separator is ":" on UNIX® platforms and ";" on Windows® platforms.
on UNIX:
export FGLLICENSE=/mydir/fgllicense.dev:/mydir/fgllicense.base

on Windows:
set FGLLICENSE=c:\mydir\fgllicense.dev;c:\mydir\fgllicense.base

GRELICENSE

The GRELICENSE environment variable specifies the Four Js License Controller configuration file for Genero Report Engine (greWrt).

The default license configuration file is at $GREDIR/etc/grelicense. If the environment variable is not set, the default configuration file is used.

When the GRELICENSE environment variable is set, it specifies the path to the configuration file. Multiple configuration files may be used. For examples, see Do I need multiple license controller configuration files?.

When defining multiple license configuration files, the filenames must be separated by the operating system specific path separator. The path separator is ":" on UNIX platforms and ";" on Windows platforms.

on UNIX:
export =/mydir/:/mydir/

on Windows:
set =c:\mydir\;c:\mydir\

FLM_BYPASS_UAC

The FLM_BYPASS_UAC environment variable disables the User Account Control (UAC) prompt in a Windows system.

In a Windows system, some fglWrt or greWrt commands will only work if run as administrator, and a Microsoft® User Account Control (UAC) prompt will be raised to open an elevated command terminal where you can complete the action.

When the FLM_BYPASS_UAC=1 is set, the UAC prompt is disabled.

Be aware that with the UAC prompt disabled, you will need to open a terminal with "Run as Administrator" to run commands that need administrator privileges.
