SystemVision Educational: Problem with install of license

S

Svenn Are Bjerkem

Hi,
not easy to find documentation on how to install the educational
version, except for that which is written in the email from MGC. I
downloaded the sw from Mentor and requested the educational license.
I got the email from Mentor and followed the instructions in the
email. During the install procedure I expect that the educational
version is a node locked version and directed to c:\flexlm\license.dat
and the install procedure seemed to complete successfully. Ok, so far
so good.

When starting the sw, I get a message from the license manager about
two things:
1. The license file is missing a feature for the viewdrawsved FLEXnet
Licensing error:-5,357
2. The systmvisioned_s feature start date lies in the future. FLEXnet
Licensing error:-31,34

The sw starts and if I try to create a new project, either my own or
one from the tutorial, I get an exception from viewdraw.exe and the
program exits. Upon restart, I can click on a schematic entry in the
navigator and SV reports a security error from the licensing system.
The educational license from MGC only contain one line (and according
to text in email, that is correct) for systmvisioned_s

Since I both downloaded the evaluation license and the sw at the same
time, I guess I have the right sw to the license, and I used ipconfig -
all on my winxp with a network connection so that the ethernet adapter
reported a valid MAC.

Has anybody experienced the same problem with SystemVision and found a
solution?
