Unknown Error installing V5 license

Post by medsdeb »

Hello

I have downloaded the new Veeam Backup & Replication V5 tonight and received my 30 day trial licence key, however when I get to adding the license key, I get an "Unknown Error" with the option to push OK only then it throws me back to the licence key part.

I'm running Win2k8 64 Bit.

Any idea's?

Thanks

May be something is wrong with your license key. Can you open and make sure it says version 5.x? Is it possible that it has been modified by your company's antivirus/antispam engine? Please send it to support@veeam.com for investigation, we will take a look and let you know. This is the first complaint on v5 trial license for the past 2 days since release to be honest.

I have just tried a fresh install (deployed a new server) and still get the same error.
how do I get a new trial key sent to me again?

Our support can assist with that. Did you send them existing license file?
