Hi all, I have a bit of a problem here this morning, I have been called to a job, at a site I have not attended for over 8 months, to look into a 'program' fault with one of the machines. On starting up RSLogix 500 I was greeted with the message: FATAL ERROR! THE COPY PROTECTION LICENSE FOR THE APPLICATION COULD NOT BE ACQUIRED. ERROR: 2 After much head scratching, I can only imagine that the IT dept. Have been doing a disk cleanup or something (no one else has access to this PC).
[Text] Help Copying Rockwell Master Disk LIVE PLC Questions And Answers. Yes, just leave the activation on the master disk, when you start RSLogix, it will read the activation off of the floppy drive. To force Rockwell software to look at the USB drive for the activation add KEYDISK=FALSE CHECKDRIVES=H to the rocksoft.ini file found in the Windows folder, replace H with the.
I have RESET the activation on the master disk, hoping to transfer it to the hard drive. Wrapit 3Ds Max Crack Load. But when I try to transfer, I get the message: ACTIVATION FILE CORRUPT - INVALID SERIAL NUMBER (This IS the master disk that came with the software before you ask!) I have no manuals or contact numbers here on site with me, can anyone help? If you lost the key from the hard drive, you won't be able to load another from the floppy until it is reset by Rockwell. I've done this before. They tell you where to find the files to delete, then give you a code number that will add one install to your floppy, then transferred to your hard drive.
Your gonna have to call them in any case. By the way, I think you can use the floppy in the A: drive forever with AB. I think I remember Siemens having some temporary usage setup for lost keys, though.
Quote: I have searched for these files and cannot find them That's more evidence that your IT department is at fault; they've either removed the activation files or have made them 'hidden' such that you don't have the rights to see them. If the software was once licensed on that computer, it's certain that the EVRSI.SYS file is there too. It's an old and clunky activation system, but RSI can get it resolved in the space of a single phone call. Go ahead and call the UK offices.
By the end of 2005 there will be a much more durable activation system in place for RSLogix, using a simple text key instead of hidden files and activation disks. There is one other possibility for why you are experiencing this: Is you software part of an Integrator's Toolkit? These have 'timed' activation; when your contract is up, it quits working.
I learned this the hard way when my old company sent the renewal payment directly to Rockwell instead of our distributor. They didn't know what to do with the check, so they just deposited it and our licenses expired anyway. If this is the case, and you are going to 'legally' renew, you can set your PC clock back a couple of months and it will start working again. This issue came up again to me this Friday afternoon just before the end of the workday, with a customer who needs to get on a plane this weekend with his newly-activated software.
