Specifying the location of the license file
When Software AG Designer launches an application configured to start a correlator, Software AG Designer looks for the Apama license file in the default location, which is APAMA_WORK\license\ApamaServerLicense.xml. This is automatically taken care of when the correlator is started by Software AG Designer.
If the correlator cannot find the license file at the above location, it will also search Apama\etc\ApamaServerLicense.xml in the installation directory.
If your Apama license file is not located in the default location, you can specify the location before launching your application. If you do not, then the correlator will be started in an evaluation mode and will automatically exit after 30 minutes of operation. Check the correlator console output on startup to see if the correlator is running in evaluation mode. If it is, put a license into the default location or provide the location of the license file if it is somewhere non-standard.
To specify the location of the Apama license file:
*In the Software AG Designer menu bar, choose Window > Preferences > Software AG.
*Click Apama.
*In the Correlator license file field, specify or navigate to the path of the Apama license file. The default path is APAMA_WORK\license\ApamaServerLicense.xml.
*Click Apply and then OK.
