Hi

We have been using your software for some time now (we have the 64bit ver) and suddenly we get this :

Texis Web Script (Vortex) Copyright © 1996-1999 Thunderstone - EPI, Inc.
Free Webinator Version 2.6.934986679 of Aug 18, 1999 (sparc-sun-solaris2.6)

Error
000 License violation: Max Table Rows

System Info :
SunOS wsearch 5.7 Generic_106541-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-Engine

Please advise

Which software? Free Webinator? Full Texis?

If full Texis it looks like you've deleted/lost your license. On the CD there's a file called license.upd. Place that into /usr/local/morph3 and run
texis -update

It looks like you are using free webinator, and have exceeded the limits of free usage. You may wish to upgrade to the commercial version.

Actually we are using the full texis (64 bit ver) which we paid for about 1.5 - 2 years ago.

I don't know of any CD's we got, i belive we DL the software.

Please advise

Moreover, I have a morph64 dir with 2 files tha seem related :

1. license.did
2. license.key

The weird thing is the date :

Sep 26 1999 license.did
Sep 15 10:48 license.key

Seems like license.did is from the begining (Sep 1999) but license.key seems like it's updated all the time.

???

You'll have to do what Mark said then.

"If full Texis it looks like you've deleted/lost your license. On the CD there's a file called license.upd. Place that into /usr/local/morph3 and run texis -update"

What you can do is rename the license.did to license.upd, and run the texis -update. Once the license is installed it will rename license.upd to license.did.

Thanks guys
That last rename and update solved the problem.

However, i have no idea why this happened and this worries me. No one has touched this server for about 1.5 years and suddenly poof... it stops working

Any ideas?

thanks

In general it should take a fairly complex sequence of events to forget the license. If you can contact our license server that would typically involve removing the license.key file, changing IP address, and rebooting the machine. If you are connected to the internet the license should be registered with our server, so it can be automatically given back to you if you delete it.
