Need license to move to 64 bit Linux.

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

I got a new computer.  My old license file is for a 32 bit, and apparently not valid for the 64 bit version.

 

What can I do?

    Hi David,

     

    I hope you're doing well. Licenses are not dependent on the system

    architecture, what errors are you seeing?

     

    Only two things can ever be wrong when licensing EAGLE. Either your

    installation code or your key file are incorrect. With a little more

    info I think I can get you up and running.

     

    hth,

    That's over-simplifying it Jorge.  The whole mess with version 7.0 (and

    only 7.0) could be what he is referring to.  He may have setup the license

    server on a 32-bit machine and now that same install won't work on 64-bit.

    Just speculating but the release of the v7.0 license makes this

    conversation more complicated.

    The error is:

    Your license is not valid for this version of EAGLE!

     

    Please contact CadSoft for an upgrade.

     

    I have 7.2 on by 32-bit machine and I'm trying to install 7.3 on the 64-bit

    machine.

    That's a valid point, James. Nice to hear from you, hadn't seen you in

    the forums in a while. Let's see what the user comes up with.

    Hi David,

     

    That would mean that you are likely using an older version of your key

    file. Please e-mail me support@cadsoftusa.com with your serial number

    and I'll send you a new packing list so that you can download your most

    recent key file and installation code.

    The new packing list contents did not allow me to install the 64 bit version.  I get the same error.

     

    I'm trying to install in /usr/local/bin/eagle as root.

     

    Are there files laying around I need to purge.  I'm getting impatient.

    Hi David,

     

    I check and you have a V7 license make sure that you are using the last

    packing list I sent you to download your latest key file and

    installation code. The name of the key file doesn't change but the

    internals do, so make sure you are using the correct one.

     

    The error you mention would seem to indicate that you don't have a V7

    license, but that's not the case.

    Here are the top two lines of the key file:

    CadSoft License Registration File

    Copyright (c) 2015 CadSoft

     

    The activation code is the same as the earlier version.

     

    I don't think I'm doing anything out of the ordinary, installing in the same directory as my 32-bit machine.

     

    I need this to work!!!!!!!  NOW.

    Hi David,

     

    OK, let's get to bottom of this. Here's the office number call me and

    we'll get this done in one phone call. Something is not lining up and I

    think over the phone we can figure this out.

     

    954-237-0932.

     

    If you would prefer that I call you then e-mail me your number to

    support@cadsoftusa.com.

     

    Best Regards,

    Jorge Garcia
