Cannot launch Visual Fortran compiler due to liscening error

Hello!

I'm an administrator of a computer lab at our university and some days ago got a non-commercial liscence file for intel products (25 floating seats). I installed IVF using this liscence file, it installed ok, but when i launch it (cmd -> ifort, and from Visual Studio as well), I get the error:

Error: A license for FCompW is not available now (-15,10,10061).

A connection to the license server could not be made. You should
make sure that your license daemon process is running: both an
lmgrd.intel.exe process and an INTEL.exe process should be running
if your license limits you to a specified number of licenses in use
at a time. Also, check to see if the wrong port@host or the wrong
license file is being used, or if the port or hostname in the license
file has changed.

License file(s) used were (in this order):
1. Trusted Storage

...
3. C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Intel\\Licenses\\NCOM____Z2**-*****.lic
...
5. C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Intel/Licenses
6. C:\\PROGRA~1\\Intel\\Compiler\\11.1\\060\\Bin\\ia32\\*.lic

Please visit http://support.intel.com/support/performancetools/support.htm if you require technical
assistance.

ifort: error #10052: could not checkout FLEXlm license

(Here NCOM____Z2**-*****.lic is a file I recieved. it's without asterisks in real)

Did I miss something during the installation? Some FLEXlm or whatever? Actually, it did NOT ask me to install any kind of liscence manager.

Thank you in advance,

Paul.

Hi Paul,

To use floating licenses you need to have a FLEXlm license server running. It is free to download andyou can find more information, including a users guide, here: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-license-manager-faq/

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
