I had some trouble with the licensing as well. Our licenses were not purchased through Passport Advantage (not sure if that is relevant). But it could have something to do with how the original license for that PC was purchased.

I had to download the "activation kit" zip file from the IBM ESS site (Entitled Software) - it was not at all clear which JAR file contained the actual license - I eventually found it through trial-and-error.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [WDSCI-L] License not validated in RDi 9.8

Hallo,

We do have a curious problem on the Laptop of one of n colleagues. RDi 9.8 has been installed by extracting it from the distribution zip file. Then the license plugin has been installed with "Help -> Install New Software". I did not notice any errors watching that process.

But then, when attempting to connect to our IBM I, the follow error is displayed and logged in the Eclipse error log:

org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: License key check failed for plugin com.ibm.etools.iseries.connectorservice.
at com.ibm.cic.licensing.common.LicenseCheck.throwCoreException(LicenseCheck.java:346)

Needless to say, that RDi installed fine on a bunch of other computers. Just that one causes trouble.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Thomas.
