pavan2983 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Hi Guys, Last week on saturday, I installed Houdini 15.5 in my system. I followed entire process. I was successful in launching Houdini software. It was working fine. Next day when i tried opening software, It took me to the License Administrator window. Later it shows cannot connect to the license server. In server information tab, license server is not running. Manually enter keys option is also greyed out. Please help me guys what i have to do.

Atom Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 If you are just using Apprentice re-run the installer and don't choose the license server, use the other option. If you are on OSX you must be an Admin user to use Apprentice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pavan2983 Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 I am not using it as Apprentice. I downloaded recent torrent from cgpeers last saturday. Is there any option or any suggestions on why manually paste keys in license administrator is greyed out. I am happy with your reply. Thank you sir.

Follyx Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 maybe you shouldnt talk so often about keygen etc. AND the place where you got it. Everbody knows it but I think that this is a more or less serious forum. select manually enter keys... but again: the next time you better ask in there where you've downloaded it....

Mandrake0 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 if the houdini license is not official i think you'r in the wrong place for support! with a valid license you even could contact SESI. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you sir. od[force] doesn't condone or support illegal versions of Houdini if cost is an issue there is a FREE Apprentice version that has very few restrictions and is designed for new users Houdini Indie is only $199/year and allows limited commercial use.
