Concurrent License Users Must Update the FlexNet Licensing Server Software

If you are using a concurrent license of InstallShield, you must update the version of the FlexNet Licensing Server software on the licensing server before you can start using InstallShield 2020.

The version of the FlexNet Licensing Server software that shipped with previous versions of InstallShield cannot manage licenses of InstallShield 2020. InstallShield 2020 will not check out licenses from older version of the license server even when those licenses are available.

Note:The new version of the FlexNet Licensing Server software can manage licenses of both InstallShield 2020 and previous releases of InstallShield.

You can download the installer for the new FlexNet Licensing Server software from the Revenera Product and License Center.

For instructions on installing the FlexNet Licensing Server software, see Setting Up Your License Server for Concurrent Licenses of InstallShield 2016 and Later.
