Products show "License will expire in x days" even though license is renewed

Description

After renewing coolOrange product licenses they still display "License will expire in x days" notifications. Manually re-entering the license key doesn't change  the expiration date either.

Cause

This happens when access to our license servers was possible during the initial activation of our products, but has been blocked afterwards. Usually this happens when IT introduces proxy servers to the network or additional firewalls or stricter firewall rules.

Solution

Ensure Firewall allows connection to our servers

Ensure that the domain 'api.cryptolens.io' (Used to be 'app.cryptolens.io') is reachable over TCP port 443.

 

Offline Activation

If your system is unable to contact our license server due to a proxy server or firewall settings and you can't create any exceptions you need to use the offline activation.

Please have a look at this page on how to use the activation files.

The links to the activation file generation can be found in the "Activation and trial limitations" page of each product under the header "Offline Activation". For powerJobs Processor for example here:
