9. Installing a trial license


9.1. Windows

To install a trial license, replace the

<INSTALL_DIR>\mosek\5\licenses\mosek.lic

file with your trial license file sent to you by email. In the above please replace <INSTALL_DIR> with the location of your MOSEK installation.

9.1.0.1. License file search path

The location MOSEK will search for your license file is controlled by the environment variable

MOSEKLM_LICENSE_FILE

The default value for a Windows installation performed with the automatic install tool is

<INSTALL_DIR>\mosek\5\licenses\mosek.lic

For information on changing this variable see Section 8.2.4.

9.2. LINUX / UNIX / MAC OSX

To install a demo license set the environment variable

MOSEKLM_LICENSE_FILE = PATH_TO_LICENSE

where PATH_TO_LICENSE is the location of your demo license file sent to you by e-mail (e.g. /home/me/mosek/5/licenses/mosek.lic).
