GOCAD Mining Suite

What information should I send to Mira Geoscience if I receive a licensing error?

Use the Mira Geoscience Licence Manager Troubleshoot feature to send us the licence_troubleshoot_info.txt, miralmd.lic, and miralmd.log files. Start > All Programs > Mira Geoscience Licence Server > Mira Geoscience Licence Manager > Troubleshoot > Email.

My dongle is connected, but I receive a licensing error message. How I can fix it?

You can run the Troubleshoot feature from Mira Geoscience Licence Manager to restart the licensing services.

If that does not work then perhaps your licence file does not match the connected dongle.

  • You can either connect the correct dongle number for the licence file or add the licence file for that dongle FLEXid.
  • The dongle drivers are missing. Download the latest driver from here: supportportal.gemalto.com

Are there any dongle drivers compatibility issues that I should be aware of?

Currently there are no ongoing drivers compatibility issues. However older versions of our software containing the dongle drivers may have some issues with specific versions of Windows 10.

We advise you that when installing those older versions of our software, make sure to uncheck the dongle drivers during the installation process at the Select Components step.

If your licence is not tied to a dongle then you do not need to take any additional steps.

If your licence is tied to a dongle then install the latest driver from here: https://supportportal.gemalto.com/csm/?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0018320

Hardware:
– Processor: Intel® x64 architecture processors

Additional considerations:
– GPU computing requires an NVIDIA Quadro K5200, K6000, M, P, or RTX series graphic
adapter and video driver supporting CUDA 11.5.1.
– 3D stereo viewing requires graphics adapter and driver support for OpenGL quad buffer
stereo information. (Your projection system—graphics adapter, graphics driver, monitor,
or projector—is responsible for rendering the OpenGL information. If needed, contact
Support for assistance.)
– Graphics driver: we recommend updating the to the latest official version. For example,
NVIDIA drivers are available from www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx.

Why am I unable to access my licence file on the server using a Server – Network client configuration?

Several issues can cause this:

  1. Licensing issues:
    1. The licence server is down and/or the Mira Licence server service is not running => Running the Troubleshoot feature usually fixes or provides insight into the problem.
    2. The Mira Geoscience Licence Manager on the client is newer than the Mira Geoscience Licence Manager on the server => Install the latest version on the licence server.
  2. Network issues:
    1. The client computer and the licence server computer are not in the same LAN.
    2. The firewall on the server blocks the vendor daemons and ports used by the FlexNet. Make sure it allows the following: lmgrd.exe, prdm_geo.exe, miralmd.exe, and default port 27000.

If none of the solutions above work, please contact us at licensing@mirageoscience.com.
