I am still having problems trying to get Fenchurch Street to behave. I keep getting an error message saying that i don't have a licence and that the sim has expired. So far I have tried: Uninstalling and reinstalling the sim Reinstalling the system files, and then updating Deleting the common.cfg file and running the Licence Manager to re-allocate the licence Running loader updater again. And again. Remove, restart and reallocate licence. Sim is v 2.2 and Loader is 4.1.2. This is starting to become annoying as I have paid for this sim but I can't use it.

As mentioned elsewhere on the forum for this issue, Go to your license manager, unallocated the license, save then re-allocate the license

I don't think that it's another process that's interfering as surely that would affect all sims and not just one? Log in to reply |

The only application likely to cause any issues is a firewall or anti-virus but they will typically block execution of an application rather than cause issues with the sim not finding the license. The fact you have other sims working is the oddity. I wonder if the problem is with the sim you are installing. Looking back, one of the things you haven't said you've done is re-download the sim from the SimSig website and use the newly downloaded file to install the sim. Given what you've tried so far, might be worth a shot just in case. Obviously you'll have to uninstall the current sim first before installing the downloaded version.

The fact you have other sims working is the oddity.That solved it! The installer file in the downloads section is 2.2a but still identifies in the sim as 2.2 - that's why I thought I had the most up-to-date version but it looks like I didn't. Odd that the Loader didn't want to update it for me though. Log in to reply |

" said:Hmm. I can't see why that should matter. Licences are tied to the sim as a whole, not to specific versions of it. And really not to specific versions of the installer. All I can think is that your copy of 2.2 was corrupted somehow. Log in to reply |
