Hi.

I downloaded Visual Cobol for Visual Studio 2010, but my trial license of 365 days don´t work, my university passed the link of the product.

When I put my activation key, the program don´t accept. I don´t know what happened, but I need this program.

What can I do to fix that?

Thanks

    Can you please e-mail to me the link that you used to download the product and the activation key that you used so that I can investigate?

    Do not post here but instead e-mail to me at chris.glazier@microfocus.com

    Thanks.

    This problem has now been solved.

    It appears that there is a problem with the license manager recognizing the Visual COBOL PE license that is provided with the product download, if a previous version of a trial product has already been installed on the same computer.

    To fix this you can try the following:

    1.  From Administrative Tools-->Services find the serice Sentinel RMS License Manager in the list and click on Stop to stop the service.

    2.  Delete the file named Lservrc.stn from the following folder:

    C:\\ProgramData\\Micro Focus   -  on Windows 7/Windows Server 2008

    C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application Data\\Micro Focus - on XP

    Then click on Start for the Sentinel RMS License Manager service to start the service again.

    It should now pick up the new license for Visual COBOL Personal Edition.
