"The license key library has not been initialized yet." message

[Former Member]

I am facing problems with licensing the ECC6.0 server. I got a file via e-mail. when trying to install it via "new license" I browse for file sent to me by SAP.

When trying to install it I get the "The license key library has not been initialized yet." message.

I tried to find relevant note. The most close note is note 982056 saying to look in trace file (which I do not find).

i adjusted sec/libsapsecu , ssf/ssfapi_lib and ssf/name parameters and restarted the server but the problem persisted.

What to do?

I did got the same error due to below wrong parameters in instance profile. License was there in system but was not accessible due to wrong parameters

ssl/ssl_lib = /sapmnt/TR1/exe/libsapcrypto.o

sec/libsapsecu = /sapmnt/TR1/exe/libsapcrypto.o

ssf/ssfapi_lib = /sapmnt/TR1/exe/libsapcrypto.o

ssf2/ssfapi_lib = /sapmnt/TR1/exe/libsapcrypto.o

Correct parameters update for Instance profile

ssl/ssl_lib = $(DIR_EXECUTABLE)$(DIR_SEP)$(FT_DLL_PREFIX)sapcrypto$(FT_DLL)

sec/libsapsecu = $(ssl/ssl_lib)

ssf/ssfapi_lib = $(ssl/ssl_lib)

Recently updated the kernel in ECC6 from patch 23 to 69 and found the same message - "The license key library has not been initialized yet." when looking at slicense after opening with the new kernel. Realised I'd not copied across the libsapcrypto.so and libsbt.so files to the new kernel, and this fixed the issue for me.

Hello Tina,

The problem maybe with initializing the file sapcrypto.dll, I know

the symptoms don't appear to match but in many cases this the reason

for "The license key library has not been initialized yet" errors.

There should be BC-SEC-SSF related errors in the

work process trace files (dev_w*) in this case.

Please download the latest version of Sapcryptolib

http://service.sap.com/download

Then follow the link to "SAP CRYPTOGRAPHIC SOFTWARE".

You should read the section entitled Installing the SAPCryptolib in note

#662340

Hi,

Have you installed the latest SAP Cryptographic Library?

The trace and log files of the system are located in the work directory under /usr/sap/..
