Installing License
Learn how to update or install the Polarity license
Install or Update your License
You can update or install the license on your Polarity server by adding the license file to the correct location on the Polarity Server. The license file will be named polarity.lic
and should be located in the directory /app/license
on your Polarity server.
Start by copying your license file to license directory.
cp polarity.lic /app/license/polarity.lic
Finally restart the Polarity Server containers so the license is loaded
cd /app && ./down.sh && ./up.sh
Troubleshooting
Solve CRLF Line endings on the polarity.lic file
If the Polarity Server license file has Window line endings in it, the server will throw errors but will not crash. If you check the server status by running docker ps
you can tell if the poalrity_web or polarity_platform containers are running.
To diagnose the issue, you can run the following grep on the server log file.
docker logs polarity_platform grep "scheduler.schedule"
If you get back the error message:
TypeError: scheduler.schedule is not a function
Then you likely have a license with window line endings. You can also confirm that there are window line endings by running the file
command on the license file. The output will show CRLF line terminators.
file /app/license/polarity.lic
polarity.lic: ASCII text, with very long lines, with CRLF line terminators
To remove the line endings you can use the following command which will rewrite the existing license file.
vi polarity.lic -c "set ff=unix" -c ":wq"
If the user has access to yum
you can also install dos2unix
yum install dos2unix
dos2unix /app/polarity-server/license/polarity.lic
Restart the server process after running the above commands.
cd /app && ./down.sh && ./up.sh
