Activating your License
Activating your Anka Build or Flow license
More detailed license information can be found on our Licensing documentation page
Licensing is not necessary if you’re using Anka Develop.
You can see how many hosts or cores a license has available by running: anka license show -k {LICENSE}
Corporate networks can sometimes block access to our licensing server. The machine you’re activing the license on will need to reach the internet, or, support can provide the licensing server URL upon request.
If you’re using a proxy, Anka recognizes the standardhttp_proxy
andhttps_proxy
env variables. However,sudo
will not pass the environment by default, so activation should be called withsudo -E anka license activate {LICENSE}
to pass the current user’s*_proxy
envs into sudo.

Troubleshooting
If you’re having trouble activating your license, run the following command and look for an error code:
macuser@Mac-Mac-mini-1 ~ % sudo RLM_DEBUG= RLM_DIAGNOSTICS= RLM_ACT_TIMEOUT=30000 anka --debug license activate XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
Tue Jul 29 15:16:08 main: executing command license
* Host licensing.veertu.com:443 was resolved.
. . .
Tue Jul 29 15:16:09 lic: failed to activate: status -105, Could not get key information
anka: Could not get key information
In the example above, the error code is -105
. Check the code reference to see which error and any possible solutions, or reach out to support for assistance and provide the code.
