LICENSING ISSUE #2319

Closed igorssl closed 1 year ago

igorssl commented 1 year ago

Vanjaro for DNN: version 1.4.0 DNN: version 9.11.2

I had tried out the Premium theme, but let the trial expire as we were not ready to purchase yet. Now I'm getting a red screen (/DesktopModules/Vanjaro/Store/Licensing/Views/Error.aspx) with "LICENSING ISSUE Looks like VanjaroAppLicense key is missing in web.config" when I try to go to any Vanjaro enabled page.

Licensed Vanjaro Extensions require the following in web.config for licensing to work properly. It seems like the following has been removed from your web.config, , 

  <add name="VanjaroAppLicense" type="Vanjaro.AppStore.Licensing.Components.HttpModule,Vanjaro.AppStore.Licensing" preCondition="managedHandler" />

Interesting. I have not removed it directly except maybe it was removed when I uninstalled and re-installed Vanjaro.

After adding it back in I cannot do any work on the site because it constantly pops up the Licensing tab asking me to Activate the expired Premium that we were testing on a trial and are not ready to purchase yet. Any way to stop that?

You would need to activate the premium theme to continue since the trial has expired. You could try switching to Basic theme (from direct database query) as a workaround.

So are you saying that you are forcing clients to pay even if they decide to not continue after the trial? That's a very underhanded thing to do!

You need to have an easy way of backing out without having to do a database query.

While you are fixing that, could you provide the query to fix the infinite loop I'm in right now?

Licensed extensions are available for 14 day trial. Once the trial expires, the extensions stops working and you're welcome to uninstall it. The only exception is Premium Theme; which is not merely an app but the foundation/framework to build the site on. It's recommended to switch over to basic theme prior to the expiration of the trial. Once it expires, you have the following options:

To manually switch over to Basic Theme

Execute the following SQL Query directly against the Database via SQL Management Studio or other tool:

Update VJ_Core_Setting set Value= 'Basic' where Name = 'Theme'

Be sure to delete Vanjaro.Themes.Premium.dll from /bin folder and restart IIS App Pool to clear cache.

Thank you, that helped.

Having this info at the time of installation would have been helpful.
