But for some reason, we cann't able to open general tab, where we used to change key settings.(change the old key):shock: Is there any way we can update it. Please help me

Errors
serial number 'xxx' license expired on '09 Jan 2006'

Error calling subroutine: DSR_PROJECT (Action=16); check DataStage is set up correctly in project UV
(Unable to load subroutine on host (30105))

Are you trying to do it as the dsadm user?

At worst case, you can do a 'reinstall' of the server with the new auth code.

I am using admin user only.
Is there any way we can chage through command prompt?

If i reinstall, will i loose my exixting projects?

No, you won't lose anything. In the past, that was the only way to change or upgrade the license information. From what I recall, it's not until 7.5.x that we were given a way to just update the license information...

Thanks Chulett,

Let me reinstall server with new Auth code. I will update you once i done with that.

Can you set your server machine date back a few days, update the license key and then move the date forward again?

Yes.

is that a work around for all expired licences

Please qualify "all". For example, I don't know how SAP licensing works.
