Manual floating license setup problem: Invalid Host status 25
I have a manual flexlm install with one instance of lmgrd listening on port 27000. Multiple vendor daemons are successfully running under that. I'd like to add the new vendor daemon ptd_d into the mix but I'm getting "status 25 Invalid Host" errors when the license file is read.
17:03:36 (lmgrd) REstarted ptc_d
17:03:36 (lmgrd) Done rereading
17:03:36 (lmgrd) ...Finished rereading
17:03:41 (lmgrd) ptc_d exited with status 25 (Invalid host)
My PTC license file looks like this:
SERVER myhostname PTC_HOSTID=XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX 27000
DAEMON ptc_d "c:\flexlm\ptc_d.exe" 7788
The host machine has two NICs installed. The PTC license file is keyed to the first/main/active NIC.
lmgrd 11.16.2
ptc_d 11.14.1.2 (also tried 11.16.1.2, no change)
Windows 10 64 bit
I've tried various permutations of putting things in quotes, using opt files, etc. I even regenerated the license file to use the other NIC/MAC address, no change. Still getting Invalid Host 25 errors.
The license file SERVER syntax is a bit different from what I'm used to with my other vendor daemons. All other license files use the mac address as a simple hex string, but PTC uses PTC_HOSTID=XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX format. I've tried changing that line around too. No change. Still getting Invalid Host 25.
Any suggestions what to try here?
