Two years ago I had a project with a MSP430F2012, firmware developed using IAR. Now the firmware needs an upgrade, and since my laptop harddrive is a new one now, I looked for an IAR download following 'Get Software', selecting ' Code size limited Kickstart version download ', downloading slac050am.zip and after installation following - seems to be this users guide is totally outdated.

Iar License Manager

Despite some different titles I got it managed following this User's Guide up to the point 5. where it says 'Click Project → Rebuild All to build and link the source code.' There it ended with this:Building configuration: msp430x2xx (C - SpyBiWire) - DebugUpdating build tree.2 file(s) deleted.Updating build tree.msp430x2xxfet1.cFatal ErrorCp001: Copy protection check, No license found.

I have essentially the same problem.

Windows 7, 32-bit, home premium, new laptop, installed the same version of IAR Embedded Workbench Kickstart (code size limited), version 5.51.3 from TI and 5.51.5 from IAR, both fail to behave as the documentation says they should.Specifically, the old versions used to just install and run. The new version assembles (or compiles) for me - but then, when I want to debug, it fails with a 'no license found.'

IAR Systems introduces an updated version of its embedded development tools IAR Embedded Workbench for Renesas RL78. The version includes major new functionality enabling simplified development and increased code quality control for applications based on Renesas low-power RL78 microcontrollers.

The License Manager communicates with IAR using SOAP over https (port 443). So open that port, and try again to Activate the license. B) Check for the file 'lservrc' The license is stored in a file named 'lservrc'. If the location for this file is protected, then the 'IAR License Server Tools' can't hand out licenses.

I dropped back to 5.50 (slac050aj or slac050ak, if you can find them - the version that came with the launchpad on their dvd, I believe).I have an information request in to IAR asking if it is indeed their intention not to allow debugging with Kickstart going forward. No reply thus far. I've installed kickstart several times before, and never had to 'go to IAR to obtain a kickstart license' - and in fact, the license manage you can pop up DOES NOT HAVE THAT AS AN OPTION.

Nor is there any obvious place on the IAR website for applying for such a license. The only application I see is for an 'evaluation' license.There is a difference between an 'evaluation' license and the kickstart installation. If you get an evaluation license, you cannot then drop back to a kickstart license on that computer (unless you want to go through some pretty involved registry hacking).So if you go to IAR and 'request a license' you are likely not getting what you think you are getting, but rather an 'evaluation' license - and that's not a 'solution'.If IAR has suddenly, and without warning, changed their licensing practices, they might document it somewhere.I'm not applying this 'solution' until I hear back from IAR, thank you very much. IAR Systems has never answered my questions. The following is what we have discovered by trial and error.The new version of IAR Embedded Workbench Kickstart, 5.51, changes the way IAR licenses the free code-size limited version.

Unlike in the past, where the Kickstart required no license, the new versions requires a license (although some people can compile and assemble without a license) for at least some of the development process.You download, unzip, and install the program. Then, if you have an active network connection, the software installer will pop up a dialog asking you to enter your license. You need to start the 'license manager', which may pop up a web page requiring you to give all kinds of information, and allowing you to select a free license for the code size limited IDE. This is NOT AN EVALUATION VERSION. After you submit the information, IAR may send you a license file, which you can then copy and paste into the license dialog, which will then crunch on it for a while before, hopefully, installing the IDE.Since this procedure marks a rather dramatic change from the way IAR licensed the Kickstart in the past, it would have been nice if it had been documented, rather than leaving the user to go through the multi-step process by instinct.

Working in a development team?The network license is convenient and cost efficient for a team of developers. It allows you to share a pool of licenses among a group of users over a network. While there is a limit on the number of concurrent users, the number of installed copies that can occupy a license is unlimited.The network license is managed by a license server that is included in the delivery. New users can be added to an existing network license. Working in a global development team?For our customers with operations and development projects at several sites and in different countries, we offer geographical flexibility through Global Network Licenses. The ordinary Network License is restricted to one single geographical site, whereas a Global Network License provides the possibility to have users accessing the same network license from multiple sites globally.

Working alone at several locations?A mobile license is a single user license that allows you to be flexible with your work location. It is locked to a USB dongle that you can bring with you and use with any PC anywhere, and works even if the PC is without network connection. Keeping the license on a dongle also protects your license from hardware failure. Working at the same PC every time?A PC-locked license is locked to a specific PC.

It is a personal, single user license and can be used by having physical access to your PC. It also works if the PC is not connected to a network.
