Error: License not found for key/IP!

Issue

Error during CloudLinux license activation:

com.cloudlinux.clos.domain.exceptions.xmlrpc.ClnXmlRpcException: (=_=) License not found for key/IP!

Environment

• CloudLinux OS

Solution

1. To activate your license, make sure you have the correct key by logging into your CLN account.
2. Run the following commands:

   # yum install rhn-setup
   # /usr/sbin/rhnreg_ks --activationkey=<activation key> --force
   

   Where <activation key> is like 1231-2b48feedf5b5a0e0609ae028d9275c93

   
   If you have IP based license, use the clnreg_ks command instead:
   

   # yum install rhn-setup
   # /usr/sbin/clnreg_ks --force

Another Solution:

Check for CLN server URL in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date file:

# grep -Ei "clnServerURL=" /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
clnServerURL=None

The URL should be:

# grep -Ei "clnServerURL=" /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
clnServerURL=http://cln.cloudlinux.com/clweb/xmlrpc
