I was trying to compile my code through cmd but got the following error.

" Error[18]: No license code is available for feature RestrictedNativeChecker on host 127.0.0.1. "

Can someone please help. I had installed the trial version just 2 days back.

Hi satyadas,

Could you confirm the exact Micro Focus product you have installed and whether it is a personal edition, please? Thanks.

Regards,

Raquel

Hi Raquel,

I have installed Visual COBOL for Eclipse on SUSE 12 and the serial number is 600000723770.
This error happens while compiling the .cbl code.

Hi Satya,

I'm sorry to hear about the problem you are having licensing the product. Could you provide the following information?

1) Output of the command "uname -a", as executed at the command prompt on SUSE system in question
2) Output of the command "cat /opt/microfocus/VisualCOBOL/etc/cobver", again executed at the command prompt
3) The complete output of a current compile attempt, showing the latest error message

HI Blair,

I have tried working on this in two separate Linux system. Attaching the result from both of them.

SUSE Linux 12:

1. uname -1 -->

2. cat /opt/microfocus/VisualCOBOL/etc/cobver -->

PRN=KXCSU/AAF:Ao.U4.13.04
PTI=32/64 bit
PTI=Micro Focus Visual COBOL for Eclipse 3.0
PTI=pkg_157629
PTI=MFInstaller

3. I tried executing the command "cob -xcvPC "DIRECTIVES=/home/ec2-user/Scripts/options" sitesim1.cbl" and this gave the below error:

In addition to the details it is understood that the way to activate the license is through eclipse IDE.
We tried to invoke the eclipse but got the following error:

Hi Satya,

You can also install the license at the command line. To help you with the steps, please see the following video, which walks you through the installation and licensing of a product on Linux. (The video covers a different product, Visual COBOL Development Hub, but the steps for licensing will be the same.)

www.youtube.com/watch

Starting at about 4:58, the video covers installing licenses on Unix at the command line.

Thank you so much Blair. I was finally able to resolve the issue and able to compile the code.

I am extremely grateful for your timely help.
