1. Verify the server is setup correctly using lmtools https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/solutions/articles/14000026035-how-do-i-check-the-license-server-status-using-lmtools-


If the server shows any # Licenses available for checkout then proceed..



2. Verify you have performed the following on Client computers https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/solutions/articles/14000026040-how-do-i-create-the-lm-license-file-variable-on-the-client-computers-



Note: Some users already have other Flexnet applications running, so they incorporate with the existing Flexnet setup, https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/solutions/articles/14000026033-i-already-have-a-flexlm-running-other-applications-on-our-server-can-i-incorporate-that-existing-ser



Our entire Floating License FAQ, is filled with other users who solved similar issues, https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/solutions/folders/14000105647



Common feedback from customers that worked (because every company network is configured differently):

1. Reset License server.

2. Use a different PORT#

3. Make sure to use the specific environment variable NUMINNO_LICENSE_FILE instead of the default:  LM_LICENSE_FILE.

4. Some companies had to add our vendor daemon numinno.exe to their firewall safe list.  https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/solutions/articles/14000142373-not-only-does-port-27000-have-to-be-open-but-the-pathway-to-numminno-exe-needs-to-be-added-to-the-f


You can run a FlexLM diagnostics and send us the report (in a support ticket), https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/solutions/articles/14000059932-using-flexlm-diagnostics


Lastly, we now offer Floating Licenses without having to perform the Flexnet server/client setup, https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/solutions/articles/14000151771-i-am-interested-in-a-floating-license-without-flexnet-
