B SULLY 2 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) I am having a hell of a time activating my license. When I click on the Vivado License Manager I get an error: "Error when launching C:\Xilinx\Vivado\2016.4\bin\vlm.bat: Launcher time out " I read something about uninstalling any Microsoft Redistributes Package prior to 2010. Dose anyone know how to work around this problem? I have several but I know if I get rid of them it will crash other programs that put them there. I included my install log. xinstall.log Edited January 19, 2017 by B Sully Link to post Share on other sites
jpeyron 660 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Hi B Sully, I found this thead on Xilinx forum. The last entry looks like what you need to do. Let use know if the problem continues. cheers, Jon Link to post Share on other sites
B SULLY 2 Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Thanks, I don't know why I could't find that forum conversation. I will let you know if it works. It sounds like I need to uninstall all 2012 C++ redist then click the VLM and reinstall the 2012 C++ package (again). Link to post Share on other sites
B SULLY 2 Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 Im unclear if I need to unistall any year or only the 2012 C++ redistrobutable? Link to post Share on other sites
jpeyron 660 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Hi B Sully, It looks like you need to have the 2012 installed and 2013 or later are not installed. cheers, Jon Link to post Share on other sites
B SULLY 2 Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 I was able to get Vivado License Manager to run by uninstalling all 2012 Microsoft C++ Redistrobutable packages then rebooting. Once reboot click on Vivado License Manager... actually I don't know what I did but I got VLM to launch. Now I need to figure out what I need to to after that. Link to post Share on other sites

JColvin 417 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 @jpeyron, could you re-link to that thread you found? For some reason I'm not finding the aforementioned link in your comments, but maybe I'm missing something. Thanks, JColvin Link to post Share on other sites
jpeyron 660 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 @JColvin I'm not sure what happened there. But the link is here. cheers, Jon JColvin and B SULLY 2 Link to post Share on other sites
