RE: License Issue for Visual COBOL Personal Edition on REDHAT

Hello jzhang18:

I can reproduce the missing COBOL perspective, even though I start Eclipse from $COBDIR/bin/eclipse, if I do not have a license installed for the product.

Using the license administration tool named cesadmintool.sh in /var/microfocuslicensing/bin, I purposefully un-installed the Visual COBOL PE Eclipse license that had been installed along with the Visual COBOL PE Eclipse product.

Then I started Eclipse.  After confirming the location of the workspace, I got the screen saying "Unable to find a license for Visual COBOL for Eclipse on this machine", and offering two radio-buttons:  "I have a full license", and "I want to activate the free product".  I ignored this screen by clicking the Cancel button, then proceeded into Eclipse.  The COBOL perspective was not visible.  But, in Help > About > Installation Details, I could see COBOL in both the Features and the Plug-ins, if I scrolled down far enough.

In the screen captures for your Features and Plug-ins, I cannot tell whether you scrolled all the way, but I assume you probably did.  So perhaps I am not reproducing the same symptoms as your machine.

When you bring up Eclipse, does it show an "Unable to find license" screen?

On your machine, what is the output of:

cd /var/microfocuslicensing/bin

sh cesadmintool.sh

2. Check License Status
