Select the Email Activation option if you do not have an Internet connection. The Activation wizard will guide you through the creation of an Activation Request file that you must then email to Precisely.

Precisely processes the request and sends back two Activation Response files. The Activation wizard uses the information in these files to activate the server license. These files must be processed subsequent to one another. Once you have completed the entire email activation process, you may delete the Activation Response files from your system.

To activate a server license via email:

  1. On the Windows Start menu, point to Program Files, MapInfo, License Server, License Server Utility to start the License Server Utility.
    The License Server Utility application window displays on the screen. You may see one or more existing licenses listed in the application window.
  2. On the License menu, click Activate.
    The Specify Activation Credentials dialog box displays on the screen.


  3. Enter the serial number, access code, and the number of licenses for the License Server, and click Next.
    The Select Activation Method dialog box displays on the screen.
  4. Select Email Activation and click Next.
    The Specify location to save Activation Request file dialog box displays on the screen.
  5. Select a folder in which to save the Activation Request file. Click the Browse button to navigate to the desired location. Click OK.
    The selected path will appear in the box.
  6. Click Next.
    The Save this important Information dialog box displays on the screen.


    This dialog box provides the information to send your Activation Request file to Precisely. The full path and filename of the Activation Request file is displayed in the Activation Request File box. Note that the Activation request filename includes the serial number, access code, and license count for the product being activated. The email address to send the file, activation@mapinfo.com, is displayed in the Email address box.

    Take a few moments to write down the location of the Activation Request file and email address to send the Activation Request file. Caution: Please do not edit the Activation Request file in any way. If you do, Precisely may not be able to process it and your activation will be delayed.

  7. Click OK.
    The Activation wizard closes.
  8. Email your Activation Request to Precisely activation@mapinfo.com

You can continue with the email activation when you receive an Activation Response file from Precisely. You should receive the Activation Response file within one business day.
