Hello Community,
I got a very weird licensing issue.
I have 8 Creo View MCAD licenses and I want 6 of them to be accessible only to 6 named users. So I modified the ptc.opt file like this on my license server :
GROUPCASEINSENSITIVE
GROUP CVMCAD username1 username2 username3 username4 username5 username6
RESERVE 6 PVMCADPRO GROUP CVMCAD
RESERVE 6 PVPRO GROUP CVMCAD
Problem is : for one specific laptop, it is impossible to open Creo View MCAD if the user is in the CVMCAD group :
- Creo View Lite = OK
- Creo View MCAD (username1, in the CVMCAD group) = NOK
- Creo View MCAD (username2, in the CVMCAD group) = NOK
- Creo View MCAD (username7, not in the CVMCAD group) = OK
The same test has been done on another laptop (but the exact same type), but with different results :
- Creo View Lite = OK
- Creo View MCAD (username1, in the CVMCAD group) = OK
- Creo View MCAD (username2, in the CVMCAD group) = OK
- Creo View MCAD (username7, not in the CVMCAD group) = OK
I don't understand where the problem could come from...
Thank you in advance for your help, hopefully someone already experienced this.....
