I am running IDL 6.1 on a Mac, under X11. At apparently random
occasions, I'll get a series of messages
IDL> % LICENSE MANAGER: No server response after 3 attempts (3:0
minutes).
% LICENSE MANAGER: Session will terminate after 5 more attempts
(5:0 minutes) unless server responds.
Use of the SAVE,/ALL command is suggested.
IDL> % LICENSE MANAGER: No server response after 7 attempts (7:0
minutes).
% LICENSE MANAGER: Session will terminate after 1 more attempts
(1:0 minutes) unless server responds.
Use of the SAVE,/ALL command is suggested.
IDL> % LICENSE MANAGER: No server response after 8 attempts (8:0
minutes).
IDL> % LICENSE MANAGER: Session terminated due to server failure.
Consult your network manager for help.
This is mysterious, because the license.dat file is here on my machine,
and this machine doesn't need to contact another machine for IDL to
run. So it's not clear to me how there couldn't be a "server response"
if there's no external server to speak of.
I admit I'm not an expert on the licensing mechanism, so please let me
know if there is anything I can clarify.
Thanks.
