    Did you do one of the following: • Define the FlexNet environment variable FLEXID_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the location of the dongle shared object, libhasp_linux_x86_64.so. • Define the system environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the location of the dongle shared object libhasp_linux_x86_64.so. ? Could you try to send us the output of lmhostid -flexid? that command should return the dongle id. You can also access the dongle firmware - if it is correctly installed - via the loopback address. On a browser, go to http://localhost:1947/ you should see the characteristics of the dongle. Let us know if it works.

    This looks like the drivers for the dongle are missing or have not been installed. Did you check the manual on how to install drivers for Linux? Also, it would help if you send us the full log. You can do that by emailing us at: s4l-support-group@zmt.swiss Regards, Guillermo

    Hi Abdou, this could happen if there are some libraries missing. Reinstalling the SW with the default options will help.

    These error messages can be safely ignored, but I will pass them along to see if such overzealous and misleading error messages can be suppressed in the future.

    You must be referring to this: This is windows configuartion related issue. You might not have access to log counter data, try logging in as an administrator. Later you can add user to the Performance Logs User Group. Look at this page for more details: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/perfctrs/limited-user-access-support

    That's great to hear! Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I'll explore the option of implementing something similar for EM simulation.

    Hi, I assume that you have received the dongle and the license file. You will find Sim4Life installer under the "Sim4Life" folder on the DVD you have received. Please run and follow the steps there. Once you are done with the installation, you need to install the dongle and license file. To do that, please run the "Install License" (via Start menu under Sim4Life V7.0 | Licensing Tools) and follow the steps there to install the license file. Once you are done with the license installation, you should be able to run Sim4life. Please contact s4l-support@zmt.swiss if you experience any issues.

    Hi, Please contact s4l-license@zmt.swiss and inform about the issue you have. It is possible to lock your license to another network adapter or DSN.

    Hi Javier, When you start Sim4Life, Ares runs in the background and can be identified by the icon [image: 1625825900590-icon_arestray.jpg] in the system tray. Right-clicking this icon will give access to the Ares window. Please refer to the section "2.14.2 Ares - Asynchronous Remote Service" in the Sim4Life manual.

    Great to hear! Keep in min that you can use the same Ares and allow it to use multiple versions of the solvers. It will then automatically select the correct one depending on the version of the GUI you are submitting the simulation from. It is always recommended to use the latest version of Ares, but there are no restrictions on the versions and the number of solvers it can use.
