ERROR License download General error 50

[yoyo-31]

Hi,

When I try to generate the license for the Avast Business product for Linux online I get the following error message.
I use avastlic tool

ERROR:License download: General error 50
The version used is 3.0.3

What is the problem

Hi,

could you please give us the return code of the command?

Code: [Select]

echo $? right after an attempt to run the avastlic tool.

Thanks.

The problem is that the backend for avastlic v3.0.3 was shut down. You can run the avastlic command with -v to see more details about the issue.

The solution is to use avastlic 4.4.0. You can install it separately (it's in avast-license package) and run it e.g. in Docker, just to download the license. When you have the license file, copy it to target machine. The license itself is still compatible with 3.0.3.

2023-01-16 4.3 Added standalone avast-license package with avastlic(1) tool. The tool is updated, older versions may stop working soon.

Thanks a lot

I was able to generate the license using the tool in version 4.4
