I was able to get Ansys License manger installed and activate our entitlements. Ansys Licensing Interconnect version 2023.2.0 for lin64 is running successfully and reads valid licenses from the “.lic” file. Both “ANSYS License Manager” and “ANSYS Enterprise License Manager” have been installed since our Linux system does not have a GUI.<\/span>
 <\/span>
The issue we’re facing is “Could not start FLEXlm server. Please check the FLEXlm log file. Exiting.” When looking at the 2023R2 License Management Guide I am unable to find the FLEXlm log files as specified in the 2023R2 License Management Guide.<\/span>
 <\/span>
Question: Is FLEXlm (FlexNet) installed as part of “ANSYS License Manager” or “ANSYS Enterprise License Manager”?<\/span>
If so, how would I debug, if not installed is there documentation on how to install?<\/span><\/p>\n
