Help - Keyupdate

[Opeyemi]

My site still in development was working fine until the 30 key expire. After I requested for the key and followed the instruction on http://help.ablecommerce.com/installati ... _for_7.htm

I am getting the following error message:
Server Error in '/' Application.

I had that same problem when my ip address changed and it has been entered as a bug. I had to do an entire new install of the test site to get it working again. In RC3, if you have a valid license, you can set the store to run in demo mode indefinitely. Here is Logan's reply to how you can do that:

If you have a valid license installed, go open the file App_Data\ablecommerce.config.

The first line should start <application ....

Anywhere inside that line, add the demoMode indicator:

<application demoMode="true" ...

If you have a live license installed, this will put your store into full-time demo mode. Domain restrictions are not enforced and there is no expiration. You can also switch this on and off from the admin interface. This is a new feature we added in RC3 to try and ease the difficulty of development against a live license.

I checked the bug system and there is a patch out now.

(I just can't get the patch to download- it keeps wanting to open in my browser window)
