Can't activate my student license

Iván de la Fuente Maganto

Hello.

I've installed BricsCad V14 on Debian Jessie 32 bit.

I have a valid student license code (you accepted the request a month ago).

But when I typed it, BricsCad tells "Cannot get rehostable hostid. (Código de error -149)".

I eluded this problem a month by using an evaluation code.

Now the evaluation time passed and I retried to activate via my student code. But it fails again with the same error code.

Any ideas?

The license file location has changed during V14.

Make sure you use V14.2.19.

Delete the directories /var/tmp/bricsys and /var/tmp/Bricsys, and reboot BricsCAD.  You will have to re-enter your license key once more.

I'm with 14.1.17 because it's the latest version avaliable in Spanish.

But it worked.

Thank you very much.



PS : How can I mark this as solved?
