This article resolves the message Load error: file 'lmfnewdb' when installing License Manager.

Problem:

When installing licence manager this error was displayed:

Load error : file 'lmfnewdb'

error code: 173, pc=0, call=1, seg=0

173 Called program file not found in drive/directory

Resolution:

The most likely cause for this error is that the environment variable COBPATH is set. Unset the COBPATH variable using the command unset COBPATH and run sh lmfinstall again.

If this does not work, reinstall the License Manager database using lmfdbrecover. See the Development System Licensing Guide, Chapter 2, Recovering from corrupt Database.
