Oi… Re-boot, possibly, but this does not seem good at all - let me ask @brian…

Hey Clement,

Is your license local or in the cloud Zoo? If Cloud Zoo - can you log into your Rhino account and see if the license is still in there?

If locally installed - if you navigate to

C:\ProgramData\McNeel\Rhinoceros\6.0\License Manager\Licenses

is there anything in there?

Hi Mitch, thanks for the help. It’s all slightly confusing to me. I have a lic file in the folder you listed above. It contains xml code for a zoo license. If i go online, i can see that the license is listed as well. It offers a download link there but to a version from 2018-12-14. I am sure i have been at RH6 SR13 yesterday. The downtime caused by this license error is not good, i have my files saved with RH6 so there is no way to continue working with RH5.

I’m just wondering if you could just close Rhino and remove those license files from there (put them somewhere else temporarily) then try running Rhino and see if it doesn’t fix itself somehow…

Hi Mitch, i tried this and then get the exact same error dialog.

Hi Mitch and Pascal,

i’ve now located the installer file rhino_en-us_6.13.19007.14071.exe, started it manually again. I’ve entered my key and that it should locate the license from the license server. After it was done, it told me that Rhino 6 was installed successfully. I have the start menu entry and all application files are there. But if i start it, it still gives me above error.

This all happens while i am logged in. I’ve tried the login with 2 different browsers.

Hi @clement

I also got the same error, have you solved it yet ?

Hi @pccsam001, somehow this solved itself in my case. Which SR version you’re trying to install ?

Hi @clement , thanks u for replay. i installed rhino_en-us_6.34.21034.07001, i tried reinstall with early version too, but still no luck with this error. :frowning_face:

Hi @pccsam001, have you looked if your license is there ? (see Post from Mitch above).

Also, are you prompted to login online to verify ? If so, do you use a firewall. I remember somthing @aj1 told me once i was not able to register and login here. I had to allow cookies for:

https://accounts.rhino3d.com
https://discourse.mcneel.com
https://rhino3d.com

@Pascal and @brian may know more than me…
