Why can I not access my License?

    Table of contents
    1. 1. Resolution

    When installing on a Windows 7 machine, if the license server and client are on the same machine, licenses might not be accessible.

    Resolution

    If this occurs, two files must be modified.
    • Open licpath.lic (typically found at C:\Program Files\Autodesk\product) in a text editor and change the following text
      SERVER localhost 000000000000
      USE_SERVER
      to
      SERVER 127.0.0.1 000000000000
      USE_SERVER
    • Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts.

      Add or un-comment 127.0.0.1 localhost.
