Installing Developer Test Licenses on UNIX

Developer test licenses are automatically installed or uninstalled on the license database, whenever you install or uninstall Server Express licenses. You do not need to run AppTrack.

You might need to take special action in one instance. If you already have a licensed Micro Focus development system (such as Server Express or Object COBOL Developer Suite) installed from a previous version or update, you need to trigger the automatic installation of the developer test licenses corresponding to the Server Express development system licenses you already have. To do this:

  1. Change to the directory in which the licenses for Server Express are installed. By default, this is either /usr/lib/mflmf or /opt/lib/mflmf
  2. Type the command sh ./devas at the prompt.

    For example:

    cd /usr/lib/mflmf
    sh ./devas

You only need to run this command once; however, running it again causes no problems.

If you need more Micro Focus Server licenses for testing your application than provided, you must purchase additional licenses and install them. When you install the additional licenses, you must install them using the Apptrack in the development system. That is, when you enter $COBDIR/aslmf/apptrack, $COBDIR must point to the installation directory of the development system.
