Before posting something, READ the changelog, WATCH the videos, howto and provide following:

Running eve-ng pro
ESXi version 6.7

I had to reinstall eve-ng so i shut down my vm and then deleted it and started the process all over again
When I got eve-ng up and running I did add a second hard drive to bring my eve-ng hard drive up to 565 Gig
I licensed it
and then I uploaded some of the images I have previously used in the past
When I went to run:

Code: Select all

opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions
I get the following error
Oct 03 12:37:16 Oct 03 12:37:16 Online Check state: Invalid
Oct 03 12:37:16 Oct 03 12:37:16 ERROR: License Host Error

I tried to do this:
root@eve-ng:~#

Code: Select all

systemctl restart licserver
root@eve-ng:~#

Code: Select all

unl_wrapper -a dummy

Not sure the next steps to resolve this. The license is valid and does not expire until August of next year
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Wally

Your EVE must have internet and resolve DNS, it is mandatory
and then Load your lic key and restart licserver

to check if DNS is resolving do named ping

Code: Select all

root@eve-ng-master:~# ping www.eve-ng.net

Thank you, that did the trick. How do I give your answer credit? Not sure what it would be called here.
