Licensed 16.0 dbinit now says "the Evaluation Period has Expired"

Using a Licensed 16.0.0.2043, dbinit now says "the Evaluation Period has Expired", so I can't create a new db

Same with Sybase Central

Is this possible ? it was a "Trial" Version, from 2014, but we since have purchased licenses

Any help appreicated !

greg

PS One posts suggests uninstall / re-install, to clear any Trial Keys

What result do you get if you run dblic.exe against dbsrv16.lic / dbeng16.lic? That will tell you what licence your installation thinks it has.

To add: If your current install is still a Developer Edition, you should be able to turn it into a purchased edition via dblic -k <yourregistrationkey>...

Fortunately, we have Anywhere 16 installed on another machine, so I was able to CREATE a new DB there

In Sybase Central, the Server Properties do show a License, on both machines

Just good to know this is not an "End Of Life" bug

It seems you just need to apply your license key to the machine that you are having issues with.

dblic does show a license. We will try re-installing. No longer an emergency
