Hello everyone,

I get access to the education version of Feko from the Altair Marketplace (the installation file even named hwFeko2023.1_edu_linux64). I want to use the API and build an example. If I want to run the indoor_propagation example, I get a license error. I added a screenshot.

Error (2105): License Error! Cannot initialize license:
ERROR : 23.0 Feature WinPropSolver or HWWinPropSolver not found on license file
   Altair License Manager: License error

Feature(s): GlobalZoneEU, HyperWorksEDU
Error Code: 9
Error Description:

    Hi,

    Are you encountering this license error only for this particular example, or are you experiencing the error with other examples as well? Could you try running some other basic examples and let me know if you are able to run them successfully? This will help us determine if the issue is specific to this example.

    Hi,

    the error was also shown with basic examples. But I solved my problem. I missunderstand the licensing. I tried to use my license at the linux system without deactivating the license on the windows system.

    The guide (in annex) helps me a lot.
