LoadComplete’s licensing subsystem checks your license when you are launching LoadComplete and when you are starting a test run.

To check the license, the licensing subsystem connects to the Sentinel LDK License Manager service running on the LoadComplete computer and requests a permission to run. If the License Manager permits the run, LoadComplete continues the launch (or starts the test), else, it displays an error message informing you about the problem.

Below are some typical causes of the license check problem:

LoadComplete cannot start if the license has not been activated. For instructions on license activation, see –

Activating Node-Locked Licenses
LoadComplete cannot start if the Sentinel LDK License Manager service is not running. To determine whether this service is running:
1. Open the Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Services.
2. Check whether the services list contains the Sentinel LDK License Manager service and that the service is running.
If the service is not running, try to start it. If this does not help, reinstall LoadComplete and try again.
