Verifying an application’s server settings

When an Vertigo Suite application does not find a valid license on start up, it produces a
licensing error (figure

8-9

). The source of the error may be as simple as incorrect server

settings. These settings allow the Xmedia Server to communicate licensing information to
the application.Therefore, we recommend that you verify the server settings associated with
the application using the application’s S

ETTINGS

dialog box.

Additional information about application specific licensing is provided in each of the Vertigo
Suite application’s user manuals (i.e. Xstudio User Manual, Xbuilder User Manual...etc)
