Hello,

Your EVE must have internet access and must able resolve DNS.
DNS is mandatory.
Please read in our FAQ:
https://www.eve-ng.net/index.php/faq/

Q: My EVE is showing: “Eve host license host error (97)”?
A: It can happen if your EVE was very long time offline and after power it on, EVE VM still not received the license validation token. It usually solves automatically in 15 minutes.

To force EVE Pro license validations please do:

1. Make sure EVE is online and FQDN settings are properly configured. You must be able to ping named ping, like: ping www.eve-ng.net
2. Then from EVE CLI issue command:

systemctl restart licserver

3. After 3-5 mins check License with with fix permissions command:

/opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions

It must show: Online Check state: Valid
