Issues with license file after installation of Aspose.PDF 11.1.0

Hi Aspose team,

I just downloaded latest version of PDF components and now my license does not work.
Code is simple:

Dim licensePDF As Aspose.Pdf.License = New Aspose.Pdf.License

licensePDF.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

Dim licenseCells As Aspose.Cells.License = New Aspose.Cells.License()

licenseCells.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

Dim licenseWords As New Aspose.Words.License()

licenseWords.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

Dim licenseSlides As Aspose.Slides.License = New Aspose.Slides.License()

licenseSlides.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

Dim licenseTasks As Aspose.Tasks.License = New Aspose.Tasks.License()

licenseTasks.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

Dim licenseDiagram As Aspose.Diagram.License = New Aspose.Diagram.License()

licenseDiagram.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

Dim licenseEmail As Aspose.Email.License = New Aspose.Email.License()

licenseEmail.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

Dim licenseNote As Aspose.Note.License = New Aspose.Note.License

licenseNote.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

License file is embedded without copying to output directory.


Crash is always next Aspose component where license has to be checked. In above example, it will crash on Aspose.Cells but if I move Aspose.PDF to some other place like:

Dim licensePDF As Aspose.Pdf.License = New Aspose.Pdf.LicenselicensePDF.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

Dim licenseTasks As Aspose.Tasks.License = New Aspose.Tasks.License()

licenseTasks.SetLicense("aspose.lic")

then crash will at Aspose.Tasks.

Does Aspose.PDF corrupts now licenses so it cannot be found any more?

Can you please check?

Thanks,
Oliver

Hi again,

important point I am embedding license in my project ("Embedded Resource") and I will not copy it to output folder.

If I copy license file in application folder it will work but I do not want to share license to end-users.

This worked without issues with previous version of Aspose.PDF.

Thanks,
Oliver

Is there an ETA on the fix for this? I am experiencing the exact same problem.

Pretty useless library if I can’t use my license :frowning:

Version 10.9 works perfectly, but version 11.1 fails to install my license when used as embedded resource.

I had to recall my product from over 1000 sites!

The issues you have found earlier (filed as PDFNEWNET-40040) have been fixed in Aspose.Pdf for .NET 11.1.1 Hot fix.

Hi,

I can confirm that Aspose.PDF again works with embedded license.
