Summary
Failing to Open the TCP Port Number in the License.
Synopsis
The debug log shows the following problem 11:12:17 (lmgrd) pid 2296 11:12:17 (lmgrd) Failed to open the TCP port number in the license when attempting to start up the license server.
Discussion
The primary reason for this error is that the port attempted to be used by the license server is unavailable or is blocked by firewalls or anti-virus software.
To resolve this, try the following suggestions:
- Specify a port, outside of the default range (27000-27009) in the license file.
- Contact your system administrator to ensure the port being used is available.
- If the port is blocked by anti-virus software or by a firewall, specify a port number on the daemon line and configure the firewall to have this port open.
