Hello

 

I have installed the licenses of my BE, and they appear well in the SolidNetWork license manager BUT, I don't have Solidworks installed, and when I try to install via the installation manager, my license key is not valid, and no installation is possible...

 

How to do it?

Hello, the support page is quite complete:

They appear in the license manager: which one?

Thank you very much, but that doesn't answer my question.

I have the licenses in my manager, I can lend them to all my users

It's just that I don't have the solidworks software installed, apparently my reseller forgot to give me the download link...

SOLIDWORKS SolidNetWork License Manager (sorry)

For floating licenses it is no longer possible now with the new versions you have to ask your reseller

So directly on the server? To install SolidWorks you have to go to the official website then log in and download here:

Thank you very much for your contribution, I got a feedback from the hotline, apparently it would be a problem at Solidworks relating to the activation of licenses...

Indeed, when I launch the individual installation, the key is not valid, even though the licenses are activated.

I'm waiting for the call from the technician.

I'll get back to you to inform you of the next events (it can help if someone encounters the same problem)

Sometimes activation can take time. It is also absolutely necessary to be an administrator and connect directly to the server for the installation of the license server.

Hi all

after several exchanges with the hotline and the technical department of Solidworks, the problem came from the invalid license keys.

Once the license keys reset at Solidworks, the installation went smoothly.

Thank you for your leads, and your participation.
