The License Key
This product requires a permanent license in order to run. Every time you launch the software, the system reads the license key file and checks its validity.
The license key file is provided as an XML document, named adp<vr>.xml, where <vr> is the version and release number of the product. This document can be viewed using a browsing tool or text editor. The document contains the licensing and copyright information, a digital signature, and Software AG legal notices.
During the installation, the Software AG Installer validates the license file and copies it to <Software AG installation directory>/common/conf. Without a valid license, the installation fails and the Installer displays an error message.
Note:
Any modification of the license key file will invalidate the digital signature and the license key check will fail. If the check fails, you will not be able to install or run the product. In the event of a check failure, contact your Software AG Support representative.
