14.7.1 Problems with CD-ROM file system

Some operating systems provide tools which can mount a CD-ROM incorrectly. If your LispWorks CD-ROM appears to contain files named like this:

lwdoc71-unix.tar;1

then check the mount command used (Mounting the CD-ROM).

14.7.2 License key errors

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:

• LispWorks cannot find or read the key file.
• The key in the keyfile is incorrect.
• Your license has expired, making the key no longer valid.

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/7-1-0-0) 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.
