I'm attempting to use the old ADS 1.2 to compile some firmware for my old robot (wowwee rovio). I have ADS 1.2 installed but nothing will work since it doesn't have a licence file.
I know there is documentation on how to get a licence however I have filled out the license request form and emailed it only to find that I cannot send any emails to the address listed in the file as it requires you to be on a whitelist.
Can you still get licences for ADS 1.2? If so how do I acquire one?
(this might be a stupid question... but I'm just a hobbyist and this program is very old and I am finding it very difficult to find any guides/explanations other than the ones on arm's website)
Hi Hobbes_
If you have installed Arm DS and configured the 30 day evaluation license you should be able to find your serial number by looking in the license file on your PC. The ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE environment variable will point you to where this file is. So, to find it:
set ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE
echo $ARMLMD_LICENSE_FILE
This should give you the path to your license file. Once you have found it open it in any text editor and the serial number should be visibile in the form: LMXXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXXXXXX.
You should then be able to use this to raise a support case.
For more detailed information, there is also a knowledge base article on finding your serial number here: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ka005158/1-0/?lang=en
Please reply again here if you are unable to open a case. :)
All the best,Christian.
Hi again, Hobbes_
As you are having trouble accessing the license server at present, I have raised a case for you internally and have flagged it to the team who can help.
Someone should be in touch with you via the case (which you should be able to view here: support.developer.arm.com/.../)
