Laserfiche 8, Laserfiche 9

Summary

You can run the Activation Tool (ActivationTool.exe) from a command-line to activate Laserfiche products if you do not want to use the GUI.

More Information

The base statement will look similar to the following:

activationtool.exe -noui -key xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx -licpath "C:\program files\laserfiche\server\lf.licx" -productclass SERVER -version 9.0

Replace xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx with your product activation key. Replace C:\program files\laserfiche\server\lf.licx with where you want to save a copy of the resulting lf.licx file. Replace SERVER with the product you are trying to activate. See the following list for valid productclass values. Replace 9.0 with the appropriate 2-digit version of the product you are trying to activate.

Valid values for productclass:

  • FORMS
  • IMPORT_AGENT
  • PLUS
  • QUICK_FIELDS
  • RIO
  • SCAN_CONNECT
  • SDK
  • SERVER
  • WEB_ACCELERATOR
  • WEB_ACCESS
  • WEBLINK
  • WORKFLOW

Note: ActivationTool.exe also accepts 2 optional parameters: -fingerprint and -hostid. If left out, the activation tool automatically calculates values for the machine that it is being run on.
