Licensing

A CadcorpSIS WebMap licence locks the product to either a dongle or to specific characteristics (like MAC address or a combination of MAC/IP address) of the physical machine.

The licence stops working if the dongle is removed/replaced or machine characteristics change.

Location of the licence file

The licence file (with a .lservrc file extension) is present in SIS WebMap 9’s bin folder (see also What is installed-Folder Structure). During installation, this licence is automatically copied into the bin folder.

Network Licensing of SIS WebMap

To use network licensing, first install Cadcorp SIS WebMap using the temporary licence provided and then make the following changes.

  1. After installation delete the temporary licence file (cadcorp.lservc) from the bin folder of the application (i.e. C:\inetpub\wwwroot\SISWebMapExpress9.0\bin).
  2. Add the environment variable CADCORP_LICENCE_SERVER_LIST with the address of the network server, see also Network Licensing – Client.
  3. Add the licence to the server (see Adding Licences to a Network Server in SIS 9).
  4. Restart the application pool.
