    [activereports_archive]Greetings!

    We have purchased an ActiveReports 9 license; it has been installed on the developer’s box, and we would like to use the other two allowances for our build servers.

    According to this thread, the install has to be run and licensed on the server:

    http://arhelp.grapecity.com/groups/topic/question-about-licensing-for-ar9/

    However, according to the Build Machine section on this blog (which the above answer links to), it mentions a lighter weight “License Manager” that should be used in lieu of the full install:

    http://arhelp.grapecity.com/2014/08/26/activereports-licensing-memoirs/

    The license manager download link in the blog is the Active Reports 8-specific version:

    Is there a similar msi available for ActiveReports 9? And is my understanding correct, in that the full install should not be needed on the build server with AR9, or was that specific to AR8?

    Thanks much!

    [activereports_archive]Hello,

    We have forwarded your request for the LicenseManager.msi (that can be used directly on build server for licensing purpose without installing the product) to the concerned team and would get back to you as soon we hear anything from them.

    Regards,

    [activereports_archive]Hello Jorgen,

    Please find attached the LicenseManager.msi that can be used to activate the product on your build server without installing the product. The same has already been provided to you over the mail as well.

    Regards,

    [activereports_archive]I had previously installed the standalone license manager for ActiveReports 8. After installing the ActiveReports 9 license manager, I can only see the ActiveReports 8 license. There’s no option to activate an ActiveReports 9 license. Is there something I’m missing?[/activereports_archive]

    Based on this conversation, the product itself does not need to be installed on build server and just the license manager is enough to be installed. Is there a license manager for version 11 ?

    or do we have a private nugget package for the AR11 version’s full product and the license manager product.
