    Problem Symptoms:
    The following messages appear in the pc_server log:

    license_check [err]: No match for IP address 127.000.000.001
    Error: License check, Exiting...

    Cause:
    The actual server address is missing from the /etc/hosts file.

    "127.0.0.1" is the loopback interface address; it is never an actual server address.

    Resolution:
    1. Determine the correct server address; it must be one of the addresses in the $alephe_tab/license file.

    2. cd /etc/hosts

    3. Add an entry for the correct, actual server address.

    4. Restart the pc_server.

    Additional Information

    If the "No match for IP address" address is a number other than 127.000.000.001, see KB 16384-54417 ("license_check [err]: No Match For IP Address").
