Installation of the private License server in Windows OS is complete. The License server web interface is available at https://127.0.0.1:444/ (see Logging in to the License Server web interface).

It is possible that the Windows Server cannot work together with the IIS (Internet Information Services) process. In this case, we recommend stopping the process before running the License server:

Code Block
iisreset -stop

    • Private key: ngp.licserver.key
    • Server key: server.license.key

    • Client key: license.key

  2. Replace the keys and generate a new .bat file in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\VMS\VMS License Server\keys folder.
