Licensing

The version 10.1 software has been compiled using version 11.8 of FLEXlm, previous releases used FLEXlm 10.8.

If upgrading from 9.4, you MUST update your FLEXlm licence servers to the FLEXLm 11.8 ones included with the version 10.1 software, you will also require a new license file. If upgrading from 10.0 you do not need to update your FLEXlm license servers and you do not require a new license file.

The version 10.0/10.1 licence file and licence daemons are backwards compatible with the 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4 software releases. This means that any existing 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4 software will continue to work with the new licence files and servers. However, to run 64 bit versions of 9.3.1 (and earlier) you will need to replace the file flcheck93.exe in the 9.3 installation directory with a new version of flcheck93.exe provided with (but not used by) the 10.0 installation. For further licensing details see the installation guide (Windows or UNIX).

Please contact Oasys Ltd or your local distributor for your new license file once you have installed the software:

Advice on choosing Linux versions

Download Built on Kernel Appears to run satisfactorily on
REDHAT EL 4.0 RHE 4 2.6 32 bit executables also run on SUSE 10
REDHAT EL 5.0 RHE 5 2.6  
SUSE 9.0
SUSE 10.0
SUSE 9 2.6 64 bit executables are interchangeable between RHE 4 or later and SUSE 9 & later

If possible use a version that matches your operating system, but if this is not possible our experience is that:

  • 32 bit versions are generally interchangeable.
  • 64 bit versions require kernel 2.6 or later (i.e. RHE4 or SUSE 9 or later).

There is no functional difference between the versions of the software built on the various Linux platforms as they share identical source code so you will not lose any capabilities by choosing to run one version over another.

Subtle differences between libraries or patches installed on a system may mean that your experience differs from ours. The generally uncontrolled nature of Linux distributions means that we cannot predict exactly what will happen on a given system, which is why we make the different versions available. If you have problems please contact us for advice and help.
