Installing Licenses on Servers

The possible ways of installing licenses on a server (web applications e.g. JSP pages, Pipeline Pilot):

1. Using system variables (recommended):
   The location of the license file can be set with:
   • CHEMAXON_LICENSE_URL environment variable (help on setting environment variables)
   • chemaxon.license.url Java system property
     Example: -Dchemaxon.license.url=C:\ChemAxon\license.cxl
2. Manual install:
   The license.cxl file must be stored on the server, in the .chemaxon (Unix) or chemaxon (Windows) sub-directory under the home directory of the user who started JChem Server.
3. Command line install:
   Launch the license shell script (Unix) or license.bat batch file (Windows).
   Type license -h for the list of available options.
4. Using API:
   chemaxon.license.LicenseManager.setLicenseFile(String path)

Licensing Applets

Example:

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1" SRC="../../../marvin.js"></script>
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1">
<!--
msketch_begin("../../..", 540, 480); // arguments: codebase, width, height
msketch_param("licenseFile", "https://www.yourserver.com/chemaxon/license.cxl");
msketch_end();
//-->
</script>

Restrictions:

• The licenses should have the "Server mode allowed" field
• The value should start with http:// or https://

Licensing via Java Web Start

Example:

<resources>
  <property name="chemaxon.license.url" value="https://www.yourserver.com/chemaxon/license.cxl"/>
</resources>

Restrictions:
