Buisness Edition Hastle

Asterisk Asterisk Support
1

We had a pile of buisness editions from a few years ago that were essentially bricks because they never worked, the free 1.2 was the only stable functional version and still is.

Anyway, so digium is pressuring us to sell more buisness editions, so I am trying to get an ABE up and going.

At install it wants me to enter some kind of license key, whats the way to get past it and install to test the product.

Interesting. You say ABE never worked for you but looks like you never registered any and tried/tested it.

Inside your ‘bricks’ there should be an ABE manual with CD and the first page with Authentication Certificate, with holographic seal, etc. In the right bottom conner there should be an Activation code starting with ABE-… I believe that is the ‘Key-ID’ you need. You say you have a lot of ABE editions so you might call Digium’s tech support in case you have any problems registering them.

I think that is the only legal way to “get past it and install to test the product”, at least in the US.
