20160810:085028:ERROR:2:000003E8:ll_sentine( 379): Sentinel HASP RunTime Error 7. 20160810:085028:ERROR:2:00000373:ethane.cxx(1662): License not found, not valid, or expired.
Affected products:
CHARON-AXP and CHARON-VAX V4.6 Builds 166-03 and 166-05
CHARON-AXP and CHARON-VAX V4.7 Build 171-01
Solution
Check you are not running CHARON over RDP, see: CHARON Launcher - License not found, not valid or expired
If this is not the case then it may be relevant to a bug introduced in the products/versions mentioned above. It is related to the use of the "Disable TCP chimney offload" option in the Network Control Center utility. This bug causes CHARON to lose access to the license.
To solve this either:
Upgrade to CHARON-AXP / CHARON-VAX V4.7 Build 171-01 and install the patch number 171-02 or higher
