There are many reasons why the licensing process can fail and therefore we want to give you a few tips for when this happens.
...
There are two standard addresses for the RLM web interface. They can be entered into the address field of your favourite browser:
http://localhost:5054 (only valid for the computer with the RLM installed and running)http://ip_of_computer_with_RLM_installed:5054
If you get an empty page or a message that it is not possible to establish a connection,check that
the RLM application is running
ports 5053 and 5054 are not blocked by another application
a firewall isn’t is not preventing access to the RLM server and its web interface
you have entered the correct IP address and/or port
the computer with the RLM installation is connected to the requesting machine when you are in a network.
...
On the computer with the RLM installed, the license has and next limit.set files have to be stored here:
| OS X | /Users/<username>shared/DocumentsNext Limit/realflowrlm_cinema4d/licensenl |
|---|---|
| Windows | C:/<username>/Documents and Files/realflow_cinema4d/license\Program Files\Next Limit\RealFlow Cinema4D 1\rlm |
If RealFlow is running on a client machine it has to "know" where the RLM server is located in your network as shown in the image above. To establish the connection you can
- store a file on every client, called "host.lic" in the "realflow" folder in your user account's home directory (see table below). This file requires a single entry:
HOST ip_of_computer_with_RLM_installed ANY 5053
This is the place for the (optional) "host.lic" file:
| OS X | /Users/<username>/Documents/realflow_cinema4d/license |
|---|---|
Windows |
|
Open the RLM's web interface in browser with http://ip_of_computer_with_RLM_installed:5053 and and restart the server.
Check the LIC files's extension

When you get this message port 5053 is most probably used by another instance of RLM already. In this case, please read the "Already Existing Floating : RLM Servers" chapter.
