Problem:

During start-up of a VisiBroker based CORBA application the following message is printed to stdout:

Borland Enterprise Server License violation[1021]: One or more of your trial/termed license(s) have expired. Please use license tool to remove the expired license.

After the message is printed the process exits.

Resolution:

TRIAL or TERM license types are valid only for a limited duration. While the license is still valid, a warning message is printed to stdout on start-up of the ORB:

Borland Enterprise Server license warning[1017]: License is trial or termed, you have only xx days left.

When the number of days indicated by xx reaches 0, the license is expired, resulting in the error 1021.

Run "lmadm -i console" and select the option "[2] List all licenses" to check the installed licenses. For TRIAL and TERM licenses the license information contains "Term/Trial = Yes". In addition the number of remaining days is printed, an expired license would contain "Remaining days = 0".

To resolve the problem use lmadm to disable / remove the expired license(s).
