Oh thanks,it was a small error that I couldn’t easily see

The only issue remaining is ,I can’t activate sambapos as in the market there is no that option as I screenshoted

You run license.exe that’s located in the root folder.

Hello @Jesse
I followed all the steps,with message server connected,I run the licencing app,and it logs in and displays licence successfuly installed
I restart message server,and open samba but still in demo mode
Need help

Show a screenshot of your terminals message server setting.

Your wrote https:// in message server address. If you havent got SSL in your local machine please use http:// in message server address


Did you install message server? Turn your firewall off and try.

In search box of windows type services to see all windows services and look for SambaPOS.messaging service does that show running?

Do you mean in the terminals?
If not the main computer which samba is running message server is installed, running and connected. And I even restarted it after installing licence but it never activates samba
I did not install message server on terminals though the terminals communicate well with server,
The big problem is activation even after running licence app on the root directory
It prompts login successful,licence installed successful,but on the app still remains in demo mode

Something is not right about your message server. That is what licenses it.

Maybe you got older version. Can you please download Sambapos again and reinstall message server and try again.

Let me reinstall it again,I will let you know

Please download it again. We released version with same number that fixed a few things

Hello
Sorry was out of work for some reasons but am back so I couldn’t do it in time.
I downloaded sambapos today,re installed it,I run licence.exe and it prompted licence successfuly installed then,I restarted messaging server service,I then restarted samba but it was still in Demo mode/unregisterd trial
I even tried to restart computer but had the same issue.

What was new to me,is that,as I restarted the computer,it popped up a connection string error,
The error disappeared as disconnected my internet.
I wonder if this has something to do with activation

No this usually just means your SambaPOS is starting up before your sql server does.

Can you show a screenshot of your message server settings on the server. The local settings > Message Server. Also what license email are you registered as?

My licence email is
newmuambao@gmail.com

We need to clarify a few things. 1. you have internet connected is that correct? 2. Can you use the servers IP address instead of localhost please. 3. you ran the license.exe after connecting the server to message server right? and you ran it while you have active internet connection?
