Checking your AxCMS.net 9.0 License Files

by dan 14. September 2009 20:38

As mentioned before the AxCMS.net 9.0 introduces a new license model. From now on you really need a license for every website or you will be bugged with annoying license failure notifications.

Having lots of pages this will lead to lots of licenses and the question is how to kepp track of them. The answer is quite easy indeed: Just drag your license file onto Visual Studio and it will reveal itsself like a charm.

The license is valid for usage by the company of EDV-Partner on their Website http://www.edvpartner.de. The license was requested by myself in charge of EDV-Partner. Trying to use this license out of the edvpartner.de environment will lead to an error message.
 
This message will also be visible when developing in a local environment. So in the future you will need two licences: A localhost enabled license for local development and a productive license for the live environment. 
 
Best Regards

You can also locally navigate the project with production license if you change the LiveSystemHostName value in your web.config files to domain name from license file. And edit the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file adding there 127.0.0.1 www.hostnamefromlicence.com.

But is not convenient Smile As for navigating the production site you should comment or remove that string from hosts file otherwise you will be redirected to localhost. So it is better to book another one license for local environment

Hi Juri,

thanks for you proposal. I think as the license files are shipped without any charge there is no need to use your workaround solution.

Furthermore, as the license file usage is somewhat monitored by Axinom you would falsify this data.

Best Regards
