PTU not recognizing VTune license?

I get the following error when I run Performance Tuning Utility. Note that I have a valid VTune evaluation license.

  Command: C:\\ptu\\ptu32_001_win_ia32\\eclipse\\plugins\\..\\..\\bin\\vtssrun.exe "C:\\ptu3.2wspc\\pancake_compress\\Basic Statistical Callgraph (2010-02-12-07-35-20)" --interval=10 -- C:\\pancake\\v3.0\\pancake-short.bat

Notice: Your evaluation license to PerfAnl will expire in 9 days.

License file(s) used were (in this order):
1. C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Intel\\Licenses\\w_vt_comHZLGSJ7M.lic
2. C:\\Documents and Settings\\Mike\\Application Data\\Intel\\Licenses
3. C:\\ptu\\ptu32_001_win_ia32\\bin\\*.lic

Please visit http://www.intel.com/software/products to obtain license renewal information.

Driver initialization failed


Stop request has been processed..

Is this a licensing problem or a driver initialization problem? Also, which forum should I use for general PTU questions?

Thanks,

Mike

Mike,

This doesn't seem like a license issue. To double check, please do the following.

Rename all *.lic files in the following folders to *.lic.bak

1. C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intel\Licenses\w_vt_comHZLGSJ7M.lic

2. C:\Documents and

Settings\Mike\Application Data\Intel\Licenses

3. C:\ptu\ptu32_001_win_ia32\bin\*.lic

Once you have renamed them, run the exe again. You should see a message asking for license file. Add the licenses back and that will confirm it is is not a license issue.

Thank You

Shamla
