LispWorks looks for a keyfile containing a valid license key when it is started up. If a problem occurs at this point, LispWorks exits, after first printing a keyfile error message.
There are three possible problems:
An appropriate error message will appear for each case.
An unconfigured image must either be installed in the default location (library hierarchy under
/usr/lib/lispworks/lib/6-1-0-0
) or be executed in the same directory as the keyfile. If the image has been configured, check that the keyfile is in the right place and that the value of
*lispworks-directory*
is correct.
If the key is incorrect, check it against the one Lisp Support supplied. It should consist only of numerals and upper case letters (A-Z). If the key has expired, contact Lisp Support--you may be allowed to extend the key.
