[?]: EKBInstall - I/O error with ReadOnly keys

[gerperez]

For all those that have experienced the following problems installing SIMATIC keys with EKBInstall (several dates):

Message : "I/O error 103"

followed by / or

Message: "List out of bounds (x)" , where x can be any index number.

If you have already installed key licenses in "drive:\AXNFZZ" folder look inside for "READ ONLY ATTRIIBUTE" in any SIMATIC key file. If any, remove the file(s) attribute or delete the file and reinstall as required. Any key file with this attribute activated inside the AXNFZZ folder causes EKBInstall to crashes. Automation License Manager (ALM) "finds" this installed keys as good but EKBInstall does not. Why? I don´t know, we should ask to the EKBInstall program developer!!!

Normal attributes for this SIMATIC keys files are: A: Archive, H: Hidden and S: System.

This is all for now, I hope that this post can help to somebody.

Regards.

PD: I don´t know if this procedure solve the problem in all cases and OS. W7 Pro (x86) and (x64), XP Pro (x86) tested.

In the author's topic was a problem with the launch of the program in the presence of key folders with read-only attribute
ReadOnly attribute is forbidden for ALL keys !
ReadOnly = broken key !

License Keys from Siemens for the SIMATIC software are copy protected and can only be managed with a SIMATIC handling program

"I/0 error 103 = You have bad key"

У автора топика возникла проблема с запуском программы при наличии в папках ключей с атрибутом ТолькоДляЧтения.
ReadOnly атрибут запрещён для ключей = сломанный ключ !
возможно надо печатать сообщение
