Hi VladimirN,

 

Thank you for your kind support. I don't know anything about license server and above information. and actually I don't have a license server name. Could you please tell me can we just open it as a normal software?

 

Thanks,

Erandaka.

Hi,

did you receive license file copy via email ?

Look into C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing directory. Does it contain license file ?

 

Case no.1 ... you have license file containing INCREMENT CREOILLUS_STANDARD line

  • set environment variable PTC_D_LICENSE_FILE ... it has to contain path to the license file
  • run Creo Illustrate

Case no.2 ... you do not have license file

  • download Creo Parametric installation zip file
  • unzip it
  • run setup.exe and install Creo Parametric
  • when finished ... you can see license file in C:\ProgramData\PTC\Licensing directory
  • set environment variable PTC_D_LICENSE_FILE ... it has to contain path to the license file
  • run Creo Illustrate

Hi Martin,

 

Thank you very much, I didn't receive license file through email. And my computer doesn't contain PTC\Licensing folders, I'll install Creo Parametric first.

If you don't mind could you please tell me how can I do this...

  • set environment variable PTC_D_LICENSE_FILE ... it has to contain path to the license file

Thanks, 

Erandaka.
