Environment Orbix 6.3.4 All supported platforms
Question/Problem Description When trying to run the Orbix tls demos it fails with the following exception:

19:11:16 1/08/2012 [_it_orb_id_1@denon/147.234.146.206] (IT_IIOP_TLS:208) I - IIOP_TLS plugin being loaded for ORB id: '_it_orb_id_1'
19:11:17 1/08/2012 [_it_orb_id_1@denon/147.234.146.206] (IT_CORE:7) E - exception while initializing orb: org.omg.CORBA.INITIALIZE: No license available (for iiop_tls)  vmcid: 0x49540000  minor code: 271  completed: No
Exception in thread "main" org.omg.CORBA.INITIALIZE: No license available (for iiop_tls)  vmcid: 0x49540000  minor code: 271  completed: No

The license file seems to be valid.
Clarifying Information IT_LICENSE_FILE is point to a valid license file containing support of SSL.
Error Message E - exception while initializing orb: org.omg.CORBA.INITIALIZE: No license available (for iiop_tls) vmcid: 0x49540000 minor code: 271 completed: No
Defect/Enhancement Number
Cause The Java ORB does not look at environment variables.  Instead, it looks for the license file in a number of places, in particular, the CLASSPATH.
Resolution There are two resolutions to this problem:
Either
1. If it is not already the case, re-name the license file to license.txt and move it to <Orbix install>/etc/domains.
or
2. Use the itconfigure command to specify the license file using the following:
    $ itconfigure -ORBlicense_file <license file name>


And make sure that CLASSPATH is pointing to where the license file is.
