Question:
When attempting to launch SlickEdit, it errors with the following:
Timeout opening or creating license file '/opt/slickedit/bin/vslicklm/.license.slk'.
Make sure your system administrator has given all users read/write access to this file and that this file exists.
Answer:
It is likely the license semaphore did not get properly deleted and the license.slk did not get re-written properly.
Sometimes this happens due to network/user configuration changes.
Go to your "../vslick/bin/vslicklm/" directory and do a full listing on that directory (ls -al). Do you see a file called ".license.sem"? If so, delete it, as well as the license.slk file. SlickEdit should then start without a problem.
