Issue
I/NET Host Tool Initialization Error saying this version of I/NET is unregistered
Product Line
TAC INET, TAC Vista
Environment
- I/NET
- Vista 5.1.5
Cause
Vista and licensing must be installed before I/NET host tool
Resolution
Ensure that you are installing I/NET Host Tool and not a full copy of I/NET. If you wish to run a full version of I/NET you will need to purchase that as a separate license. The In House Engineering Dongle does not include a license for I/NET host tool.
Download I/NET Host Tool
The I/NET Host Tool is also included a separate executable on the I/NET CD
Uninstall I/NET Host Tool
- Go to Control Panel > Add & Remove Programs
- Remove I/NET Seven
- Remove Microsoft SQL Desk Top Engine (MSDE)
- Go to Windows Explorer > Program Files
- Delete any remaining I/NET Seven files and any remaining MS SQL files
Re-install I/NET Host tool
- Ensure that the Vista License Server is running
- Extract the installation files from the .zip file
- Run setup.exe
- If you are using a Dongle or a Vista License that does not include I/NET host tool you will be prompted for License Key that must be purchased. If you believe you have received this prompt in error, contact Product Support.
