<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hi,</p> <p>We are working to provide our customrs with CODESYS operation on our hardware product (https://elprotech.com/product/el-qe-e-quantum-edge-series/). </p> <p>I'm trying to enable CODESYS license (Soft container) on our product running ARM64 linux.</p> <p>This problem looks similar to here <a href="https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Runtime/thread/6d29b6b4de/">https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Runtime/thread/6d29b6b4de/</a> ; but I am not re-installing a license. This is first time install.</p> <p>I have CODESYS Control SL running on my device, as well as CodeMeter. I purchased a license, and installed it to the CODESYS Development system, (Tools &gt;&gt; License Repository) then tried to install to the device (Tools &gt;&gt; License Manager &gt;&gt; o Device &gt;&gt; o Soft container &gt;&gt; Remote <span>[0001]</span> &gt;&gt; OK. </p> <p>This gives me the "License Manager - Overview" dialog, and the message "Licensing info not available. There is no dongle attached to the device."</p> <p>Below shows the running applications, installed packages, and current content of <code>/var/opt/codesys</code></p> <p>Also attached screenshots of the Development software as I go through the steps to install the license.</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span><code><span class="c1">#</span> <span class="c1"># ps | grep -e "code" -e
