Hi guys,

When I start Powerbuilder, I am greeted with a message "The Sybase SySAM license was not validated."

I added the line "LogSySAM=1" under the "PB" section of PB.ini, to capture the pb120_sysam.log file. But it didn't generate a SySAM log file.

I checked the server on which the license is installed. In C:\Sybase\SYSAM-2_0\licenses, there were two .LIC files:

SySAMLicenseServer.lic

SERVER_20160503_220243.lic

The SySAMLicenseServer.lic file looks clean and readable. The other LIC file is garbled, possibly corrupted.

I ran LMTOOLS, clicked on the "Server Status" tab, and clicked the [Perform Status Enquiry] button. I generated this error:

Error getting status: No SERVER lines in license file.
License path:  C:\Sybase\SYSAM-2_0\licenses\SERVER_20160503_220243.lic;
FlexNet Licensing error:-13,66
For further information, refer to the FlexNet Licensing documentation,
available at "www.flexerasoftware.com".

Questions:

- can I just fix the problem by deleting the LIC file?

- if not, what other solutions are there?

Thanks in advance,

Scott
