    Dear all,

    we have encountered an "error -7" when a user try to access a license from the LSU. The user are running on v17
    It has to do something with the licensing but we cannot figure out what.
    It also seems hard to reach any support function for MapInfo latetly. Perhaps someone here can direct us or give any suggestion on what "error -7" is.
    Thanks in advance
    /Johan

    Hi Johan
    Are you using the latest release of the LSU - v5.2?

    Yes, I agree with John that first step would be to upgrade LSU version.

    As per Flexera error "-7" , it means "No socket connection to license server manager service". One of the possible explanation would be a version mismatch between client (Pro) and server (LSU) versions. Always better to have LSU updated whenever you add new version of Pro.

    Yes we are working on an upgrade. Some steps to take since we have some special configurations.
    However we have > 250 other users on the LSU that do not face this error.
    The issue is now with your support team, so hopefully we will get a solution to this (very unusual?) error code.
    Thanks all for your contribution
