Subscription experation -4 days #7

Open stephencoombs opened 11 years ago

stephencoombs commented 11 years ago

Could you please exlain why you have the following line of code within ValidateSubscription? I have been testing an app using it and wanted to see what happens the day before and the day of expiration, but kept getting failures for both. Upon stepping through the code I found the following line, but there was no comment on the reason why expired is expired date plus four days?

if ((ExpirationDate - DateTime.UtcNow).TotalDays > 4)

It means, 4 days before the subscription license expire, check with the subscription service to get a new license. We usually generate subscription licenses with 3 days grace period, so you actually have that happen when we renew the subscription

Cheers for getting back to me, did think that might be the case. I will just add abit of padding to the subscription date in that case, as I am not using a subscription service at this point.

How are you going to renew the subscription, then?

I was going to send out the subscription as a file that would be uploaded to the web site via a page, as I don't have a central web server for it to access.

What is your subscription period?
