Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around issues related to starting the Gambit software on Windows Vista, specifically focusing on license authorization errors and potential solutions. Participants share their experiences and suggestions regarding the software's licensing problems.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • Initial posts detail a fatal error indicating that valid license authorization could not be obtained, with specific FLEXlm error codes provided.
  • One participant expresses confusion about a previous response, seeking clarification on the meaning of "4 ch."
  • Another participant reports a workaround by changing the system date to a time before the license expiration date, allowing Gambit to run smoothly, but notes the inconvenience of having to revert the date afterward.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on the meaning of "4 ch," and there is no agreement on the best approach to resolve the licensing issue, as some suggest different methods without confirming their effectiveness.

Contextual Notes

4 ch
 
..perfect! thank you so much..Jehan
 
did not understand the answer 4 ch. could you please explain what

no entendi la respuesta 4 ch. lo podrias explicar porfavor
 
what does '' 4 ch '' suppose to mean?
 
I don't know what it means. BUT I found a way to get the Gambit running, by changing the date to mm-dd-2007. i.e. any date before nov-11-2011. It's running smooth now.

Con: I have to switch back to the current date if its annoying to have 2007 in the clock instead of 2012.
