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.
