Our license server is stuck with this error:
lmgrd is not running: Cannot connect to license server system. (-15,570:115 "Operation now in progress")
Why would this appear?
This error is typically displayed when the license server has been shut down or otherwise rebooted, and lmgrd needs to be restarted. This can be done whenever you have problems such as the above.
On Linux, you can restart the license server with the following command:
$SCHRODINGER/licadmin START -l lmgrd.`hostname`.log [-c license-file]
On Windows, you can restart the license server with these steps:
- Open a Schrodinger Command Prompt window (Start → All Programs → Schrodinger-year → Schrodinger Command Prompt).
- Start the license server with the command:
run lmgrd -c installation\license.txt -l installation\lmgrd.log
See the Installation Guide chapter on Licensing for more information on the license server.
