In this article, we cover the configuration of NPrinting for use with a long term offline Signed License Definition (SLD).
The Signed License Definition also allows a 90 days offline usage per Delayed Sync, (without the long term offline approval).
Note:
- No license has long term offline capability enabled by default!
- Long term offline capability needs to be specifically approved by Qlik and the conditions of offline use agreed to by the customer. See Request license off-line approval - April 2020 and onwards.
- Once approval has been obtained through the CSO, the license will be modified with an additional attribute OFFLINE;YES;;
- Additional configuration changes are necessary for permanent offline mode to function
Resolution:
Configuration changes needed:
- Stop the NPrinting License Service
- In a Windows File Explorer, navigate to \Program Files\NPrintingServer\NPrinting\License\
- Open license.config in a text editor
- Add the following tag:
<add key="offline" value="true" />
- Start the NPrinting License Service
- License NPrinting by pasting its appropriate SLD
NOTE - Once the changes has been done you will need to retrieve the updated SLD key via this link - https://license.qlikcloud.com/sld and then apply the same for successful offline activation
