  I am trying to open a file in the 2023 R2 software. It is a converged solution file done on the same software but when I am trying to open the solution tab I am getting an error which says 'Unable to spawn node: license not available'. Upon closing I get the message that 'The FLUENT application failed to validate the connection'.
  
  I reinstalled Ansys and run the set up as administrator. I downloaded the student version from ansys website. I am attaching the screenshot of the messages window here. Please help.

  It seems there is a license issue? are you sure license manager is working well?
  Are you running on multiple cores. Can you check if connection between machine is ok?

  It seems to be an internal internet error. Can you connect with you license server machine? Can you verify with you license provider?

    What do you mean by License Server Machine? I have downloaded a student version of Ansys from their website, So the license is supposed to be with the installation right?
