Empty WORKBENCH TOOLBOX

      Hello~

      I've done everything to my knowledge that is possible to fix this error, including restarting the workbench application & my computer and allowing ANSYS apps through my firewall however I still am not seeing any tools in this space. Is there anything else I can try? Or is this definitely a licensing issue? 

      I'm not sure who to contact either! I've attached pictures below.

      Hi Ariana,

      Are you pointed to a license server for licenses? Do you get any error pop up while launching Workbench?

        I ran the license manager + was able to upload a license file without problems. I think my machine is registered as a license server. I don't get any error pop ups at all.

      Can you share the screenshot of the first three lines in your license file?

      Can you share the screenshot of the entry in the Ansys License Settings?

      What licenses do you have? Are you able to go to START and run SpaceClaim without errors?

      Go to START > ANSYS Licensing Settings 2023r1 > Features in Use. Post the output.

        The " Getting Servers..." page never actually loaded.

      Click License Servers and input your computer hostname DESKTOP-6H4H9CA and save it. then try features in use to see if it fetches any information.

        Do you mean this?

        Where do I input the information? Does the hostname go into "server", what goes into port?

          You're right. Port will be 1055 and server 1 will be the hostname. then save it and try again.

          There is a green checkmark now but still this error.

          can you try launching the Licensing Settings as administrator and then input the server info?

          The web portal shows my server as being added.
