Do you have these lines in your license file?

#MECSTRUCENG_STSIM        2     Pro/MECHANICA STRUCTURE ENGINE           Creo 4.0 Flt Lic perm
#MECSTRUCUI_STSIM         2     Pro/MECHANICA STRUCTURE UI               Creo 4.0 Flt Lic perm
#MECTHERMENG_TH           1     Pro/MECHANICA THERMAL ENGINE             Creo 4.0 Flt Lic perm

We just re-did our licensing for Creo 4 and a lot of things changed, in particular the Simulate entries. The latest license file I got from PTC had the following lines (omitting the "Contract" column)

#MECBASICENG_License 1 Creo Simulation Basic ENG (formerly Pro/ Creo 4.0 Flt Lic 29-oct-2018
#MECBASICUI_License 1 Creo Simulation Basic UI (formerly Pro/M Creo 4.0 Flt Lic 29-oct-2018

This stuff is never fun.
