Hello,
The following error pops-up when opening "Mechanical APDL Launcher"
Things to note about my installation:
- I am able to execute Icepack and SpaceClaim without any issues
- I have installed all ANSYS programs on the D:\ drive of the computer, not the C:\ (main) drive
- I am running Windows 10
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing.
Yes, this is correct, you should remove this and ANSYSLIC_DIR , so that you could change the installation path.
Hello,
I believe I have solved all of the problems. Just want to share the solution to that last issue I had.
In order to change the default directory: ALL PREVIOUS INSTALLATIONS OF LIC. MANAGER MUST BE REMOVED
In some instances, that includes removing or deleting the license manager services:
If this cannot be performed using task manager, it can be done using the command prompt:
SC DELETE servicename
In the case of the services shown above
SC DELETE "ANSYS, Inc. License Manager"
SC DELETE "ANSYSLicensingTomcat"
Note that the " " may or may not be needed...
After, reboot/restart your machine!
I think I found the culprit
For some reason, I cannot change the path during installation.
Could this be a factor of pre-sets of previous installation?
Your ANSYSLIC_DIR is set to a wrong path. It should be
ANSYSLIC_DIR=D:\ANSYS Inc\Shared Files\Licensing
and...
open CMD Prompt, then issue the following command
set
and post the entire output of it here.
Also, go to your installation directory (e.g., C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\Shared Files\Licensing) , then open ansyslmd.ini with any text editor app like notepad and post its content here.
Win,
When I access the client, I already have a license listed.
I tried erasing it and writing it again... I get the same issue...
Any other thoughts?
Also... keep in mind... that only the mechanical suite seems to not work for some reason. I can run SpaceClaim, Icepak, and Fluent...
