Question Error by manual license activation, without Hub

Hi !

I have installed Unity Editor without UnityHub and try to manually activate my license with a command:

Code (CSharp):

./Unity -batchmode -createManualActivationFile -logfile

Unfortunately it always ends up with the same error:

[Licensing::Module] Successfully connected to LicensingClient on channel: "LicenseClient-st-893458" (connect: 0.33s, validation: 0.06s, handshake: 0.00s)

I was grateful for ideas on how I can thus license without Unity Hub

Thanks !

Here is a document, and the mac one applies to linux as well.
https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/ManagingYourUnityLicense.html

<unity-command-location> -quit -batchmode -serial SB-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX -username 'name@example.com' -password 'XXXXXXXXXXXXX'

You can general the serial number of your license from your account portal.

Hello,

thank you for your reply.

I have read this document before.

The command you suggest using is possible when the license is activated and the serial number can be found in the unity portal account. I currently have it there that the license is not activated.

The command I use is also described in the manual license activation documentation:

Code (CSharp):

./Unity -batchmode -createManualActivationFile -logfile

However, I get an error next and, if I all right understand, I can't generate lizense file from my account in portal.

indeed you can not generate the serial number this way for unity personal license.

i tried it on my machine tho with unity version 2023.1.0a26, there is no issue for me to generate a .elf file in the same dir.
Might be helpful to share the log file.
