Cannot add licenses to ESET Security Management Center v7

[G_Hosa_Phat 0]

I recently (finally) updated our old ESET Remote Administrator software (v5) to use the ESET Security Management Center (v7). The basic deployment seems to be fine, but I'm unable to add the licenses for our workstations. Every time I attempt to add the licenses - whether with the Business Account credentials or the license key - I get an error indicating a failure. For example, trying to add the licenses using my credentials returns the error: "Failed to add license by ESET Business Account credentials."

Looking at other topics on this subject, I tried looking at the trace.log file to get some insight, but I'm still unable to determine the cause of the problem. I also tried disabling the proxy server option in the Advanced Settings, but it still failed. Here is what I'm seeing in the trace.log file (redacted):

Reading through this doesn't help me a whole lot, but my best guess would be that there's some sort of communication error with the licensing server. Interestingly, if I use the same credentials on my workstation to activate the endpoint client, it works without a problem. Of course, I don't want to have to go to each client to do this manually - especially if I need to renew my licenses or do further upgrades/updates. Any help would be appreciated.

I also experienced the same problem as you.

I have exact the same problem.

Moved ESMC 7 yesterday from Cent OS server to a new Windows 2012 server and try to add my license with EBA account since then. Always failing with error.

We are checking it with developers. Will keep you posted about our findings and resolution.

I looks like the problem is solved!
A few minutes ago I suddenly was able to add successfully my license with my EBA credentials!

Yes. It appears that the issue has been resolved. I'm unsure if this was just a "you need to wait" thing, or if it was some sort of failure on ESET's licensing server(s) that has since been repaired. Either way, my licenses are now active.

Hi, I have the same problem:

This ERA instance has been manually installed on an Ubuntu 18.04 Machine. Everything else works well except it can't seem to download all products enabled by License and this might be due to the error as shown in Error Trace.

Please provide the trace.log. It is not clear what version of the ODBC driver you have installed. Also I'd recommend checking with Wireshark if the server successfully connects to the repository after restarting the ESMC server service.
