Servoy 5: License needed for Wrapper

Classic Servoy

Hi everybody,

Today we tried to make a clean install of Servoy 5 (no upgrade). We have copied our files across. And now when we try to start the service it fails and in the service logs we get the following error:

We never had this issue with Server 4 with same installation procedure.
Did we replace a file we shouldn’t? Where should we check to fix it?

We check the wrapper.conf file and compared it with the one of a computer upgraded from Server 4 for Servoy 5, but we didn’t find any difference. Same result when comparing servoy.properties

Ok, we have just re-installed Servoy 5. And apparently the wrapper.conf now contains licenses for the Wrapper. So we have to be carefull when we change the files!
Also, we have notice that, on the machines upgraded from Servoy 4 to 5 the file is not upgraded! So, I don’t know what it does with a Server upgraded but on our computer (used to develop with Developer) the service doesn’t start. :shock:

You cannot “upgrade” from one major release to another, you need to do a full install of the new version.
