Sample Plugin not work

[yduke]

The "sample plugin" in

software-license-manager\software-license-manager\client-side-examples\sample-plugin\slm-sample-plugin.php

When I trying to learn the sample plugin by installing it to wordpress, every thime I click the "Activate" button, it says:

Notice: Trying to get property 'result' of non-object in (client url)\wp-content\plugins\slm-sample-plugin\slm-sample-plugin.php on line 61

Notice: Trying to get property 'message' of non-object in (client url)\dk\wp-content\plugins\slm-sample-plugin\slm-sample-plugin.php on line 73

The following message was returned from the server:

(But the server is all setup and runing normal when use the wp repo server plugin) Sample plugin used to work when I install the server plugin in wordpress repo, but not for your version, although yours is prettier... :-)

Is there any adjustments I need to make for the sample plugin code to work?

I was trying to use this plugin for selling my wordpress theme, is there any tutorial link?
