Hi expert, when I open the NAV development environment, it pops up an error saying your license will expire in xx days.

To my understanding the license does not have an expiry date and it is a little strange. Please advise! Thank you!

Thank you all for the advice! I tried it and it did not work. Here is the error message: The operating system cannot find the file C:\Program Files(x86)\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\70\RoleTailored Clien\CRONUS.FLF. Verify that the drive directory and the file name are correct. I uploaded and changed and even altered the database to resave the license files, but nothing helped.

This is strange, one of our customer is also facing same issue. We have uploaded the license, saved the license in database, restarted the service but still the expiry message shows up.

One thing i need to check is if deleting cronus license will stop showing expiry message.

Hi, I think you can re-upload the license.
If you are in the development environment, you can use Upload, which will replace the license of the environment.
If you are in the production environment, you can use Change, which will only be affected in your development tools.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

RE: The license will expire

After the testing, I found an issue. In the RoleTailored Client folder there is a license file Cronus.flf together with our license file. The weird thing is we uploaded our own license file which is clearly showing on the license information with our company name, created date, and the list of other information like table pages etc. But if I removed Cronus.flf, I could not open the NAV DEV, which said Cronus.flf could not be found. Please advise! Thank you!

Hi snoppy ,

My guess may be some developer is working on this environment, and loaded their development license and now its going to be expired, please check with your developer if this is the situations.

Thanks.
