Using a Static License
Note: This section applies to Option_1 (Node-locked) and Option_2 (USB Dongle) licenses.
- Install the license file (xpauth.xpr) that you received from FICO Support by saving/copying the file into your xpressmp\bin directory.
For UNIX machines, copy the xpauth.xpr file into a convenient directory, such as xpressmp/bin, and set the XPAUTH_PATH environment variable to the full path:bash$ export XPAUTH_PATH=/opt/xpressmp/bin/xpauth.xpr csh% setenv XPAUTH_PATH /opt/xpressmp/bin/xpauth.xpr
The XPAUTH_PATH environment variable is only used by Xpress to find the license file. On Windows XPAUTH_PATH is not needed, since by default Xpress looks for xpauth.xpr in the directory containing the Xpress libraries, xpressmp\bin. We recommend that XPAUTH_PATH is not set on Windows, in order to keep the installation simple. - You are now ready to use the Xpress product.
Note: Previous releases of Xpress used the XPRESS environment variable to locate the license file on UNIX machines. This is now deprecated in favour of the XPAUTH_PATH environment variable. When upgrading, please update any existing user scripts which set XPRESS so that they instead set XPAUTH_PATH.
