James -
My apologies that no one has gotten back with you in response to your questions.
If you are able to install the GeoEvent Extension, but cannot load the GeoEvent Manger web application when browsing to https://localhost:6143/geoevent/manager and want to check product licensing, there is a run-checklicense.bat script in the ...\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\GeoEvent\bin folder.
Edit the script so that it appears as follows (new lines frequently do not register for me correctly in the installed file):
echo off
set output=
set JAVA_EXE=C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\framework\runtime\jre\bin\java
FOR /F "delims=" %%i IN ('"%JAVA_EXE%" -cp .\PostInstaller.jar com.esri.geoevent.license.LicenseStatusCheck') DO set output=%%i
if [%output%] == [] GOTO NOT_LICENSED
echo License is valid
exit /b 1
:NOT_LICENSED
echo License not valid
exit /b 0
The script should run the java.exe located in the JRE bundled with your ArcGIS Server installation, loading the specified *.jar file and executing the specified LicenseStatusCheck to verify your GeoEvent Extension has been correctly licensed.
Hope this information helps -
