Problem description

When trying to start a calculation with PLAXIS CONNECT Edition V21.00.00, the Bentley CONNECTION Client may show a warning regarding insufficient license permissions.

License warning when running a calculation

Figure 1. License warning when running a calculation

The error shown above will prevent any calculation from starting when using a PLAXIS 2D or PLAXIS 3D Advanced or Ultimate.

It is still possible to work on creating geometry, generating a finite element mesh and adding phases in a project.

Note that this issue is not related to any settings applied by the administrator in your organization.

Solution

This is now solved in PLAXIS 2D and PLAXIS 3D CONNECT Edition V21 SR 1. 

When using an older version, please update to the latest version.
