License Activation Not Working

Hi,

Working through one of our projects, I tried to access the Sitefinity admin area today and received the license activation screen, not a big deal so I downloaded the license file and selected the license. It confirmed the domain and license type so I clicked continue and nothing happened.

Can I manually copy it somewhere to get this to work? It is rather urgent as it is holding up production of one of our sites.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi,

I figured it out. My solution was checked into TFS so it was in a read only state. Checking the solution out solved the problem.

A warning or error message on the activation screen would have helped in this scenario. Maybe something for the bug list?

Thanks,

Hi, i have the same problem, no error message appear. Any suggestion?

If you're still having issues where you upload your license file and are shown the dialog stating it's valid and then it throws you back to the same licensing screen, I fixed my problem by editing the valid License.lic I downloaded in Notepad, copying all the content, and then opening the file located at \App_Data\Sitefinity\Sitefinity.lic and replacing it's content with my clipboard.

Thanks Antony, i solved my problem with your reponse

Hi Antony.

Version sitefinity 4.2.1650.0
