Business Analyst (License not available) yet we have the 10 .sdlic file installed

Question

I can't check the Business Analyst extension (it says: (License not available)) yet in ArcGIS Administrator -> Data Licenses our license says BA10_US_Basic_2010, and all the info is right there.

Has anyone else had this problem before?

Hi All,

We have ArcGIS Server 10, BA Server and BA Data installed in Windows Server 2008. And we don't have any desktop components in this server. We have (BA10_US_Basic_2010.sdlic) data license file and we would like to Add this Data License in this Server.

Usually data license will be added via ArcGIS Desktop Administrator / ArcGIS Configuration Manager (ArcGISAdmin.exe) - Add Data License OR double clicking the .sdlic file. Both these options will work only if ArcGIS Desktop is installed.

Since ArcGIS Desktop is not installed in the Server machine, we are stuck to add this data license in Server. In other words, how to add / install license file (*.sdlic) to ArcGIS Server/ BA Server (without ArcGIS Desktop)? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The background for trying to add this data license (BA10_US_BAsic_2010.sdlic): We are using Business Analyst Server REST Service Endpoint - "LocatorReport" to calculate the drive distance between points. This LocatorReport Service uses StreetMap Data (BA data) for calculating the drive distance and it expects data license.

Done. Found in help how to do it using Administrator. Sorry for disturbing.

I just want to clarify, that you have resolved this issue and that you no longer require help.

Regards,

I have another situation with that .sdlic file. I've installed BA without pointing on it during the installation so the data are unavailable. But now I have that file. How can I register it to get the access to the data?
