CodemeterCM Failure to connect

Hello, 

I have been testing the client agent with a USB CodemeterCM USB from wibu systems connected to the service

Fists, we list the USB connected to the server :
vhui64.exe -t LIST

-> CodeMeter-Stick M (MSI.5)

Then we select the device

vhui64.exe -t "USE,MSI.5"

and we always get FAILED after 5 seconds or less

we tried with the licenses server and without the license and we get the same error any suggestions? 

 

thanks

What device is the virtualhere server running on (i.e where is the stick physically connected?)

That will have a reason in the server log.

#3

The USB is connected to the Windows VM

 

We have 2 USB dongles in the server one is a sentinel HL and the other is codemeterCM. With the Sentinel HL we do not have any issue sharing from the server to the client ; that works well, but with the USB sticker CodeneterCM, we get FAILURE every time.

what do you suggest?

 

#4

I suggest you answer the question i asked :) What is the server ? You need to tell me that so i know where the log is

#5

the server is a windows USB server vhusbdwin64.exe

#7

Did that fix it?

hello 

 

We still getting the same error in the client, but in the server, we get these logs

With this version of the server, we found some  issues that we had to disconnect the USB or the Windows server has been rebooted inside the VM

so the test with 2 USB tokens, the Sentinel HL still works perfect , but with the CodemeterCM USB token we are still getting FAILURE in the command options that we select through the client

 

Any suggestions?

 

thanks

You need to be using windows 1809 or later on both server and client side

however you are using windows 1607

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_version_history

and the windows virtualhere server cannot run inside a VM it must be run on read hardware

Ok, installing the solution in a VM in Hyper-V o VMware, we get issues with only the CodemeterCM USB token.

We are still getting a failure connection, an issue we do not get in the Sentinel USB token.

But when we use a physical Windows server 2019 or Windows 10, the solution works fine in both USB sticks sharing over the internet.

So we will stick to the physical server installation of the VirtualHEre Server.

 

thanks
