Question by TPC-Unity · Dec 13, 2017 at 12:00 PM · installationactivationbatchmode

Command line activation Unity pro 5.x- Education

Hi,

I'm trying to activate Unity by command line for a number of PCs. The below command did work in the summer but stopped about three weeks ago. The serial key works if the activation is done through starting up Unity, logging in, enter the serial key.

I've downloaded the curent build of Unity yersterday, 2017.2.1f1

This command did work to activate Unity but now doesn't

"C:\Program Files\Unity\Editor\Unity.exe" -quit -batchmode -serial E3-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX -username username@domain.com -password Password

I've also tried

"C:\Program Files\Unity\Editor\Unity.exe" -quit -batchmode -force-free -serial E3-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX -username username@domain.com -password Password

and

"C:\Program Files\Unity\Editor\Unity.exe" -quit -batchmode -force-free -serial E3-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX -username "username@domain.com" -password "Password"


In the editor log i get this

"BatchMode: Unity has not been activated with a valid License. Could be a new activation or renewal...

(Filename: C:/buildslave/unity/build/Editor/Platform/Windows/WinEditorMain.cpp Line: 830)

DisplayProgressbar: Unity license Cancelling DisplayDialog: Updating license failed Failed to update license within 60 seconds. Exiting. This should not be called in batch mode.

(Filename: C:\buildslave\unity\build\Editor/Platform/Windows/EditorUtility.cpp Line: 1171)"


I've read this page a number of times for help but not getting very far: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/CommandLineArguments.html

Thank you for your help in adavnce.

Chris

Sorry, just seen this (Email went to spam). Simple answer is no.

I was going to have another look at Easter when I can take the VDI computers offline.

I wish Unity had a license Server/manager we could install on site. It would make life so much easier. Like Autodesk\The Foundry software
