I am having difficulty getting mechanica working, I would appreciate any help..
The symptoms are:
1. I cannot uncheck the FEM Mode check box in the Model Type popup when selecting Mechanica from theApplications menu.
2. If I hit OK (with FEM checked) in the Model Type popup, another popup appears: Unable to get required Mechanica License. Please contact your sales representative.
Here's what I've tried so far:
0. Pro/E runs without issue.
1. PTC License Server seems to be running, and pointing to the correct Mechanica folder: C:\Program Files\mechWildfire 3.0 (perhaps I need to point to a different folder or file?)
2. When configuring PTC.Setup, the "Define Installation Components" page shows PROE_FoundationAdv, MECBASICENG_License, and MECBASICUI_License all with License Type=Floating , Release Version= 27.0, Experation Date=1-jan-0 (I think these means permanent), Number of Copies=1. Also Server Info is identical for all three licenses.
3. ptcstatus shows 0 In Use and 1 Free licenseeachfor MECBASICENG and MECBASICUI.
I've searched multiple topics, but have not been able to resolve. I'm not a CAD Administrator (perhaps that's obvious) and not too familiar with setting up Pro/E in general. Any help, inlayman's terms,is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
