Using licenseactivator
licenseactivator allows you to authorize end-user computers without using the License Authorization Wizard. This command-line tool is located in the directory in which you installed IBM® SPSS® Modeler.
When you use licenseactivator, it licenses the product and writes a log file to its directory. The name of the log file is licenseactivator_<month>_<day>_<year>.log. If any errors occur, you can check the log file for more information. This information is also useful if you contact IBM Corp. for support.
Using licenseactivator with Authorization Codes
licenseactivator is typically used with one or more authorization codes that you received when you purchased the product. Enter all of the text on one line.
Windows:
licenseactivator authcode1[:authcode2:...:authcodeN] [PROXYHOST=proxy-hostname][PROXYPORT=proxy-port-number]
[PROXYUSER=proxy-userid] [PROXYPASS=proxy-password]UNIX/Linux/MacOS:
./licenseactivator authcode1[:authcode2:...:authcodeN] [PROXYHOST=proxy-hostname][PROXYPORT=proxy-port-number]
[PROXYUSER=proxy-userid] [PROXYPASS=proxy-password]- Multiple authorization codes are separated by colons (:).
- The proxy settings are optional, but you may need them if your
computer is behind a proxy. Which proxy settings are needed depend
on your specific proxy configuration. You might need all of them.
- PROXYHOST
- The server name or IP address of the proxy host
- PROXYPORT
- The port number for connecting to the Internet through the proxy
- PROXYUSER
- If required, the user ID for the proxy
- PROXYPASS
- If required, the password associated with the user ID
Using licenseactivator with License Codes
In less common scenarios, IBM Corp. may have sent you a license.
Windows:
licenseactivator licensecode[:licensecode2:...:licensecodeN]UNIX/Linux/MacOS:
./licenseactivator licensecode[:licensecode2:...:licensecodeN]- Multiple license codes are separated by colons (:).
- When using license codes, licenseactivator does not connect to the Internet, so you do not need to specify proxy information.
