1.1
1.1.1

Installing FLEXnet on Windows
Checklist before starting the installation
1 Before starting the installation you need to make sure that you have available the license
file to license your application. The license file is provided to you by Deltares and can be
requested at the Deltares Software Helpdesk, probably you have already received the file.
Remark:
The license files may not be stored temporarily in a root (for instance d:\).
2 Also you need to be aware which type of installation you want to perform. There are 3
types of installation:

Local, Client; required for Delft3D

DR
AF

This installation supports the licensing on a single computer (stand-alone) and supports the licensing for a concurrent user, using a license Server in the network.
Server and Client; not relevant any more for Delft3D
This ‘Server and Client’ installation is done when using a local license server on a
workstation. Using the license manager in this way has the advantage that the workstation can be approached by ‘Remote Desktop’, which is not possible/allowed when
using a stand-alone (node locked) license.
Server only; not relevant any more for Delft3D
With this option a service with floating licenses is installed on a server.
When you have received the license file you need to perform a ‘Local, Client’ installation. The
other choices are not relevant for Delft3D
Remark:
When the License Manager is already installed as part of another (Deltares) software
package, then you only need to add the license file(s). See section 1.1.4 "How to add
license files".
1.1.2

Installation

During the installation of Deltares’ software you have to install the licensing software. This
section guides you step-by-step through this installation process.
Note:
Do not connect the dongle to the computer before the installation of the License Manager is
completed. First install the License Manager, and after that connect the dongle.

Click Next to continue
Choose Configuration

DR
AF

The Choose Configuration window allows the selection of the kind of configuration used for
the Deltares Software License Manager. The default is ‘Local, Client’ or the option which was
used when installing the previous version.

Figure 1.3: Choose Configuration Options window

The possible options are, where only Local, Client is relevant for Delft3D:
1 Local, Client; required for Delft3D
This installation is used for a local (stand-alone) as well as for a client license. Unless
the pc you are installing the license manager on is a license server, you will always
need to use this option.
2 Server and Client; not relevant any more for Delft3D
This server and client installation is done when using a local license server on a workstation. Using the license manager in this way has the advantage that the workstation can be
approached by ‘Remote Desktop’, which is not possible/allowed when using a stand-alone
(node locked) license.
3 Server Only; not relevant any more for Delft3D
With this option a service with floating licenses is installed at a separate license server.

In order to continue, select the desired option and press the Next button.

1.1.3

Functionality of the installation configurations
Local, Client configuration

Server Only configuration

When adding a license file using the Add License File tool, the license file is copied to the
directory; no license server is started.

DR
AF

When adding a license file using the Add License File tool, the license file is copied to the
directory. Also a license server is started. When the operating system supports
this, a service is defined that starts the license server at start-up. The license Server computer
can also be used as a Client computer. This means that Delft3D can run on the license Server.
Combining standalone and client configuration

When it is required that standalone licenses can be run on a Client computer, the Client
computer should have a standalone configuration. This way all license files that are added with
the Add License File tool are copied to the local directory. The Client computer
will find the license Server because it is defined in the license file. Please note that when the
files on the license Server are updated, they need to be updated on the Client computer as
well.
Changing the license configuration

If you want to change the license configuration, you need to de-install the License Manager
software and re-install it choosing the new configuration. De-installing the License Manager
software can be done via the Add or Remove Programs menu (see Start → Control Panel).
1.1.4

How to add license files

A license file can be added or updated using the Add License File tool, see Figure 1.11:

2 Frequently asked questions for FLEXnet

Error on client: Server node is down or not responding, although server log file looks
fine
I have configured my license Server and the server log does not contain any errors. When I
start my application on the Client PC, I get the error:
Server node is down or not responding
The client application needs to connect to the license daemon and vendor daemon processes
that are running on the Server.

2.1.1

FAQ’s on Windows

You need to check if there is a fire wall configured on the Server that blocks the connection to
these processes. In the FLEXnet server log file the port numbers that are used by the license
daemon lmgrd and the vendor daemons lmwldelft, dwldelft and dhsdelft are reported.

2.1

In this example you need to make sure that the port numbers used by the license Server,
dhsdelft (1249) and the vendor daemon dwldelft and lmgrd (in the session that is shown in the

Deltares

11 of 22

DS_FLEX, Installation Manual

log file: 1245 and 8500) are available and can be reached by the Client computer.
To specify the port numbers that are used by the license Server and the vendor daemon, you
can modify the license file:
SERVER WL06008 FLEXID=8-5E700060C1CF TCP:8500
VENDOR dhsdelft "C:\Program Files\DS_Flex\dhsdelft.exe" PORT=8550
VENDOR dwldelft "C:\Program Files\DS_Flex\dwldelft.exe" PORT=8570

(See also the FLEXnet end-user guide pg. 106, 107)
You need to check in the firewall configuration if these ports can be reached. If you are running
Windows XP Server SP2, be aware that a fire wall is installed automatically.
My server client licensing system is not running properly
Check if the Server is running properly

2.1.2

DR
AF

Firstly you need to check if the license Server supports all the licensing features that you
expect it to support.
You can do this by inspecting the file in the directory on the
Server.
In this file you will find the license files that are read by the license Server process ()
and a list of features that are supported.
2.1.3

If not all license files are listed in the log file

Check if the ‘service configuration’ of the license Server is correct
Start lmtools by activating Start → All Programs → Deltares → License Manager →
lmtools.

Go to the Config Services tab.
Check if the Path to the license file contains only the directory and no specific
license file, see Figure 2.1.

Figure 2.1: lmtools: Config Services tab

12 of 22

Deltares

Frequently asked questions for FLEXnet

If you have edited the path to the license file, you should save the service and stop and
start the license Server. Stopping and starting the license Server can be done with the
Start/Stop/Reread tab, see Figure 2.2.

DR
AF

Figure 2.2: lmtools: Start/Stop/Reread tab

Now you can check the log file again and see if all license files and features are logged in the
log file.
All license files?

Have all the license files in the directory been added with the Add License File
tool that can be found under Start → All Programs → Deltares → Deltares License Manager
→ Add License File?
This can be diagnosed by inspecting the first two lines in the license files. When they look
like:
SERVER SERVER_NAME FLEXID=9-23EE9563 TCP:8500
VENDOR dhsdelft DHSDELFT_DAEMON

it has not been processed by the Add License File tool; when the first two lines look like:
SERVER WL06008 FLEXID=9-23EE9562 TCP:8500
VENDOR dhsdelft "C:\Program Files (x86)\DS_Flex\dhsdelft.exe"

then the license file has been processed by the Add License File tool. It has replaced the
string “SERVER_NAME” with the actual server name, in this example “WL06008” and it has
replaced the string “DHSDELFT_DAEMON” with the actual path to the vendor daemon, in this
example .
If files are found that have not been processed with the Add License File tool, remove them
from the directory and add them with the Add License File tool.
Now stop and start the license Server, see Figure 2.2, and inspect the log file of the license
Server. All the files should be logged in the log file.

Deltares

DS_FLEX, Installation Manual

If not all features that you expect can be found in the log file
Make sure that all the license files that you have received from Deltares have been added with
the Add License File tool. Restart the Server if necessary.
If the log file reports a hostId error
14:38:28 (dhsdelft) Wrong hostid on SERVER line for license file:
14:38:28 (dhsdelft) C:\Program Files\DS_Flex\delft3d.9-23EE9562.lic

14:38:28 (dhsdelft) Invalid hostid on SERVER line

You can also use lmtools to check if the USB dongle is recognised by the computer.

DR
AF

You can start lmtools and activate the System Settings tab, see Figure 2.3. In the FLEXID
box, the dongle number of the USB dongle should be visible:

Figure 2.3: lmtools: System Settings tab

Step I

Check if the dongle is inserted in the USB port of the computer.

If the dongle is not inserted in the USB port, insert the dongle and check if lmtools reports the
dongle now.
Step II

Perform an installation with the latest DS_Flex installer. This installer can be found at the
Deltares Support Site:

During the installation the dongle should be removed from the computer.

Frequently asked questions for FLEXnet

Check the client
When the Server is running correctly, it is still possible that the application on the client is not
running correctly.
Use the Add License File tool to select a license file on the Server.
The Add License File tool on the Client PC only stores the path to the license file on the Server
in an environment variable. This environment variable is used by the application to find the
license files in the directory on the Server. So only 1 license file (on the Server)
needs to be selected from the Client PC and no files are copied to a local directory on the
Client PC.
Which installation configuration do I need?

2.1.4

When you have received an Evaluation License or Single Computer Personal License you
need to perform a Local, Client installation.

2.1.5

DR
AF

When you have received a Network Server License, you need to perform a Server only or
Server and Client installation on your network license Server computer, and a client installation on all the computers of the concurrent users of Deltares software. The server installation
needs to be performed first.
Old Delft3D versions and USB dongles

Not all Delft3D versions can work with a USB dongle. Up until version 3.23.04 of Delft3D the
licensing software cannot work with a USB dongle. You either have to upgrade to a higher
version of Delft3D or when this is not possible, you need to contact the helpdesk.
2.1.6

“Can not find license file” error

This error can be caused by the incorrect definition of the environment variables that are used
by FLEXnet to search for license files.
The FLEXnet error message contains the license files that are used by the application when
it encounters the error. When only a directory is shown and no license files are shown, the
definition of the environment variable that points to the directory where FLEXnet searches for
license files can be erroneous.
For windows XP the path should have no backslash at the end:
;C:\Program Files\DS_Flex;
The ‘;’ at the start and end of the string is optional.

For windows 2000 the general rule is that the path should have a backslash at the end:
;C:\Program Files\DS_Flex\;
The ‘;’ at the start and end of the string is optional.
This is taken care of by the DS_Flex installer that is part of the Delft3D installation.
It has been reported that on some Windows 2000 machines, the backslash should be removed.

Order in which license files are accessed
License file locations that are used by FLEXnet to locate license files can be specified in the
environment, the registry and within the application itself. What is the order in which these
locations are used?
The order in which these sources are used is:

The environment
The registry
2.1.8

Environment variables

DHSDELFT_LICENSE_FILE

The environment variables that are used are:

2.1.9

DR
AF

This environment variable is used by all Deltares/Delft Hydraulics applications that have vendor daemon ‘dhsdelft’.
Registry keys

The registry keys that are used have the same names as the environment variables and the
same versions of Delft3D are applicable (see Section 4.8.1).
They can be found in:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\FLEXnet
2.1.10

Running a license server with license files for Delft3D version 3.23.04 or lower
generates errors
When you use the latest distribution of license files on a license Server it is possible that the
oldest vendor daemon , lmwldelft, will generate errors.

Restarting vendor daemons on a license Server

When you run a license Server with multiple license daemons, as is the case with many
Delft3D set-ups, it is possible that you get restarting license daemons. This results in no
licenses being served by the license Server. This problem can also occur when you run
license files from several suppliers on one license Server.

As long as you run Delft3D version 3.24.00 or higher this will cause no problems running
Delft3D. We advise you to migrate to a higher version of Delft3D. When this is not possible,
you need to contact the helpdesk.

Case 1: Only License files from Deltares are used on this server

When the Add License File tool is consequently used when adding the license files to the
Server computer, this problem will not occur.
To solve the problem, take the license files that were originally provided by Deltares and add
them, using the Add License File tool.
Case 2: License files from multiple vendors are used on this Server
Modify the server names in all license files so that the case (upper or lower) that is used
in all the license files is the same. Take care to use the server name that is defined in
license files from Deltares that have been added to the Server computer using the Add Li-
