The FlexNet software includes the following improvements and corrected issues:
Improved behavior when running lmgrd as a Local Service — Previously, the following issue could occur on Windows platforms:
If a debug.log file was created manually in a subfolder of C:\ProgramData\ using a Standard User account, and lmgrd was run using a Local Service account, lmgrd could not start because it did not have Modify permissions for the debug.log file. This is expected behavior.
To avoid this issue, the following now occur:
The Windows event log shows warnings if lmgrd is running as a service using a Local Service account and does not have Write permissions for the debug.log file.
The Windows event log shows the file path for which lmadmin (when run as a service) does not have Modify permissions.
An improved warning dialog advises the user to make sure the Local Service user has Modify permissions for the folder containing the debug.log file.
Corrections to lmstat unsupported messages — Previously, lmstat showed an expiring feature as unsupported even if the feature was enabled again by a new future start date license. This issue no longer occurs, and lmstat shows the expected behavior after the midnight reread.
Improved lmstat output for future start date licenses — Previously, when the start date in a license file specified a date in the future, lmstat showed a misleading message similar to the following:
Error: n licenses, unsupported by license server.The wording of this message is now more informative:
Warning: n licenses, future start date.
