Issues with license key file
« on: January 27, 2011, 03:26:39 am »
We're developing an Add-In for EA 7.5 with VS2008.

We got a shared key file on a network path and sometimes when we are testing the add-in this file became corrupted and appears a backup file with a .bak extension.

We only interact with Repository object in order to get the ProjectGUID and invoke a Web Service with that parameter.

Anyone can help me?

Is there any way to enable logging in EA?

thanks in advance.

In regards to floating licenses, logging can only be performed with the Keystore Service, which requires Enterprise Architect 8.  See:
http://www.sparxsystems.com/products/ea/floating_licenses.html

Corruption issues are most frequently reported when the client machine is running from a remote network, or possibly running over a slow or unstable connection to the file server.  Ideally, we would suggest upgrading to EA 8 and installing the Keystore Service instead as this offers a much safer and more secure way for remote machines to access licenses.

I think upgrading is not an option in the company so I have to deal with this problem.

Anyway, thank you for your response.
