Hi,
iLok License Manager application doesn't work in wine 5.0 (reported by wine --version) in ubuntu studio 20.04 for amd64.
The application is perfectly working in my ubuntu studio 19.10 with wine 4.0.2.
iLok License Manager is a free application and can be downloaded from this page:
https://www.ilok.com/#!license-manager
Here is the direct link to the zip file:
http://installers.ilok.com/iloklicensemanager/LicenseSupportInstallerWin64.z...
At startup, as shown in the attachment, the application complains that it is not possible to connect to the server. This doesn't allow me to move my installed license nor to install new software. The same application starts perfectly in ubuntu studio 19.10. I have double checked it several times.
This application is crucial for musicians to authorize highly professional VST plugins. In order to check the behavior with plugins, it is possible to ask for trial versions of Eventide VST software from their site, eg: https://www.eventideaudio.com/products/effects/band-delays/h3000-band-delays
There is a button to request a demo version, working for 30 days.
To request the plugin and activate the license you need an account created on www.ilok.com and then use the License manager to authorize it on the local computer. To install on another computer, you have to use the License Manager to deauthorize the local version, or the software is lost.
I'm at your disposal for any information and help.
Best regards,
Fabrizio
