Problem Title:
F1.4, Express, security: Error$: Feature license file format or misspelling...(-90,313)
Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard
General Description:
After installing a new license file, when starting FPGA Express, the following
error is generated:
Error$: Feature license file format or mispelling in license file (-90,313)
Solution 1:
This error message is generally generated when the security is setup/configured
correctly, but the license file has invalid characters.
The license.dat file is a pure ASCII text document. It should not have any formatting
characters or other remnants of word processors. Check the license file for remnants
or formatting problems. Do this by:
In a DOS window, open the license.dat file using the dos text editor EDIT (at command
line type EDIT, then open license.dat)
The '\' character terminates each uncommented line of the license file that wraps around,
therefore it should be the very last character of these lines. If there are formatting characters
following the '\', delete them. If there is text from the next line of the license file (not wrapped
around properly), place the cursor after the '\' character and hit return. Save the file and try
running Express again.
