License not found error #1492

Closed mjburton11 closed 4 years ago

mjburton11 commented 4 years ago

When MOSEK can't find a license or it's out of date it gives the UNKNOWN status. I usually lose a minute everyday trying to figure out what's wrong with my model before I remember that I need to log on to the VPN so the solver knows where to look for the license on the server.

Any chance that a different error message can be printed out when the license can't be found or is out of date.

I think mosek_conif gives a more sensible error message; for mosek_cli unfortunately the error code returned is platform dependent, but if you post it in this thread (should show up along with the UNKNOWN status) I can start catching them.

For me on linux it returns 240 for a missing license, 233 for an expired one.
